Posted by Alex Ramon / / / 0 comments

It's amazing what you can do with a Honda Dominator NX 650, a scented trail bike, very versatile with sufficient C.C. for both road and mountain. For the design, Crd  has started to change the Gas tank of a Bultaco Mercurio 175 GT 1976, painted in two colours, blue and cream, giving it a vintage flair, and from this gas tank alignment and design the rest of the bike has a lowered frame, rear seat design, lower front suspension and change down by Öhlins, the bike fits a Coker Diamond 18"carburetor of 40 mm. Keihin, K&N filter, this winding tube is handmade by GR, Amazing don’t you think? This Dominator, is certainly one of my favourites and just now I realise what I say that every time Crd delights us with a new one! ahhhg! By the way, Gas cap's logo has been designed by me ;) If you want to be updated in Crd news follow them on their Facebook page

Es alucinante lo que se puede hacer con una Honda Dominator NX 650, una moto con esencia trail, muy versátil tanto para montaña como para carretera y con suficiente cilindrada. Para el diseño, Crd ha partido del cambio de deposito de una Bultaco Mercurio 175 Gt de 1976, pintado a dos colores, azul y crema, que le dan un toque muy vintage, y a partir de este deposito alinear y diseñar el resto de la moto como bajar el bastidor, parte trasera, diseño del asiento, bajar suspensión delantera y cambiar trasera por una Öhlins, la moto calza unas Coker Diamond 18", carburador 40 mm. Keihin, filtro K&N, este sinuoso tubo esta hecho a mano por GR, una pasada no creéis? Esta Dominator, es sin duda alguna, una de mis preferidas y ahora mismo me doy cuenta que lo digo cada vez que Crd nos deleita con una nueva! ahhhg! Por cierto el logotipo del tapón es diseño mio ;)

3 Yamaha XS750 by Ugly Motorbikes on Sale!

Posted by Alex Ramon / / / 3 comments

Ugly Motorbikes is a San Diego based custom motorcycle garage with a penchant for building exceedingly clean, light, classic café racers. This 77' Yamaha XS750 has received a full treatment makeover into UGLY Motor Bikes view of a cafe racer. The kick/electric start motor has had the top end rebuilt with custom engraved handcrafted velocity stacks and a custom 3-3 baffled exhaust. With these modification, the bike has an aggressive tuned exhaust note. The custom metal tail features a single offset tail/brake light, and a frenched start button. The seat, grips, and pegs are wrapped in Nigerian calf leather with a slightly aged look applied. To achieve the desired stance the front forks have been
internally lowered 1 ½” and 1” in the triples. With this being the first Yamaha triple having built/worked on, they hold true to their rep of  being a stubborn bike, but once they are tuned and massaged they are outstanding bikes. This XS750 has great smooth power and the riders smiles grows with every twist of the throttle. Continuing in UGLY’s style of minimalism and focus on design, this XS750 pulls it’s weight, and is a welcomed addition the UGLY Motor Bikes family. 

The bike is currently on sale for a steal at www.seaweedandgravel.com
