R1200S    'X' BIKE (DaBomb)


Our Newest Bike is another R1200S, but with a difference.... This will not be a MOTO-ST bike like the Mule or the Ghost. This bike will feature all the hot rod stuff we can throw at it, to create the most horsepower possible.
The X-Bike Project was completed in July & raced the first time at Road America in WI. Below is the building process that took 4 months & a lot of late nights.
