Hmmm.... steel frame and swingarm, reminds me a bit Yamaha Seca with a copy of 650 kawi motor, oh well... If it's made like the "Great Wall" in the Dakar race, I don't have much fate in this one, it will finish last if at all.

8541Hawk - interesting article. As for any Ninja resemblence the article said it's a 650 twin, that would be more of a 650SV replicate. Certainly it wouldn't be competitive with any 650cc iL4s but I would guess with enough UK tuners working on it this bike would be a real hoot to ride!

The Ninja 650R is a twin..... it's a parallel twin but still a twin
