Adrenalin Moto XR1200 Cafe Racer


The new XR1200 is not Sideburn's favourite bike, but it can be redeemed. Our friends at Adrenalin Moto (in England) have done this to theirs. The bodywork (except nose fairing) is all-carbon and exclusive to the company. The under-tank air intakes are bigger than standard.Triple clamps are Free Spirits, pipe is Adrenalin Moto; shocks are Bitubos with Adrenalin Moto adjusters. I've had a spin on it, in the pissing rain, and it rode well, but boy is it tall. It's almost like a BMW GS, especially with that exhaust making it difficult to get your leg down on one side.

Adrenalin Moto stock a ton of XR1200 and Buell parts, plus stuff for Euro and Jap twins (at their Twin Shack business). And they're stocking this new Jewel Racer XR1200 bodywork too.

The bike isn't really tall Gary, you just need longer legs :)

Thanks for the feature
