I think the point is Z3n is a space cowboy on the edge of a frontier unknown to man, he's out there pushing the limits, trail braking into the abyss. Finding out where the edge of the razor is, turning to face the darkness and revving his 690 into it's vast gaze. You gotta live this to learn it bro.

I saw one of these at the Vintage/Classic bike rally here in Ontario today. It looks like a car engine that they built a bike around and sounds like heaven

The new Sterilgarda paintwork looks great, especially on the tail where it fades out to the bare carbon. But that R6, mmm, tasty, tasy bit of kit.

That second one is the same one in the video that I linked earlier. :swoon:

So awesome.

Also, they're not triumph frames, they're the frames that the triumphs have been based off of: Spondon.

That CBX? No, it's all one off, from the custom exhaust/tailsection, to the spondon frame (all made by hand), to the custom single sided swingarm (Speed triple) and the front end, which looks transplanted from a S3 as well.

It was pouring rain the other day and all I had in my car to keep me dry was a rain jacket and my new helmet. I think i ran across the street in front of a google car, or ateast something with a ~2ft mast on top of it...but I doubt they take/keep pictures in the rain :(

The swingarms are both from Spondon as well. They sell them separately from their frames as well, they're supposed to be quite a fair bit lighter that a standard sportsbike swinger. As for the front ends, they're from an Aprilia RSV and GSX-R.

Spondons are all kinds of awesome.

Do you have any more information on that bike? It makes sense that spondon makes swingarms, but I'd never heard of it before. I was way off on what bikes they got transplanted from. :xd:

My favorite part is he used those fog lights you get in the auto section at Target as headlights. You can't see them very well because of glare, but he had a devil girl sticker on each side of the tank, too.

Got a bar mount for my GoPro camera and recorded my ride home from work. Picture isn't that great since it was starting to get dark, but it's not too bad for a $170 camera. I'm kind of proud that I can hear my pegs scraping in a few parts.

You can also see that my dad's XB12 can pull away from my Blast very easily.
