This may be the nicest CM400T on the planet. Damm that is cool.
I've said it here many many times. You do NOT need big money or big engines to build fantastic bikes. And here we have another excellent example of that. This beauty was built by Mario Trigo Salorino wo writes in:
Hello, my name is Mario and I write from Spain. I'm a fan of your blog for a long time. Always show the style of bikes that I like. It is a daily appointment required.
I want to show a personal project I recently completed. It is a Honda CM400T, base uncommon, has been done by me and some friends. I do not define his style, bobber, track, brat ... is a modest project but I'm very happy with the result. Major changes are, handlebars, handlebar switch, repositioning of the electrical components and battery box, exhaust, rear set, clocks, modified original seat and paint job. Appear on your blog would be a reward for my work. I hope you like.
A greeting and continued with this great blog. Muchas gracias.
PS. Sorry for my English.
Your English is fine Mario It's an excellent build. I am labeling at a Street Tracker but you're right it has elements of other styles in it as well. ! Thank you very much for sending in these great picture!

What was the bike that "Lawerence of Arabia" owned?
A Brough Superior of course.
Thanks to an alert reader!
Hi there! Thanks for a brilliant site.
I was walking around the Imperial War Museum in London yesterday and came across Lawrence of Arabia's SS100 Brough Superior. I'm not sure that it's suitable for the site, but I thought you'd like it. Lawrence owned eight of these beauties and they were all called George!
Thanks again
Jezza

If you have a collection of images output Aprilia motorcycles, maybe a little confused with this view. At the bottom of the fairing and the tank Aprilia written, but in the Italian motorcycle manufacturer catalogs can not find that model. Then, the original of the bike is also gone. So no wonder the original Honda motorcycle was in 2005 that Tiger has been modified by the G2C. Amazingly, all the body is made from 0.8 mm galvanized materials which must be more difficult than the fiber shape using a mold.
In concept, according to Hery Shofiyulloh, fairingnya imitate the model Yamaha R6, but its size is adjusted again. Was indeed plagiarism Aprilia tank that has some curves and it's been a challenge. Differences with a swing arm (arm) made his own. "So that can ensure the size fit the body. That's the difference compared to life of the swinging arm.'ve Pegged and baseball become creative again," said Hery flying the same Wardoyo benderan G2C.
Wardoyo other creations can decent thumbs up, see the muffler design. To view and the model does not fail with the new motor. Sangar with two snout shape and position in the undertail. "The form we also note the notch mufflers, made back in rhythm with the body design. So that between the body and exhaust that sticks not opposites," said Hery.
