Motowheels M900 project

This is a monster that I built before I was involved with Motowheels in 1998. It is another bike that does not get ridden much anymore and may be gone pretty soon.

This is a picture of it around 2002.


We painted it for the first Monster challenge and came in second:


This bike is extremely light. It is all carbon, magnesium and titanium.

The wheels are BST carbon wheels. Rotors are BREMBO "Narrow Band 4 Pad" Front Rotor with SPIEGLER "Free Floating" Brake Rotor Buttons. Calipers are the BREMBO "4 Pad Radial" Cast Caliper with CARBONE LORRAINE Brake Pads: 4 Pad which are much more progressive than the OEM brembo pads.


The CF Front Fender: 748-998,Mon'00+,SS,ST is vented by inserting a screen. The forks are 748R forks with Ohlins internals and a MW Billet "Showa 100mm" Radial Lowers:748-998/SS/Mon/MS.

Barely visible are the titanium bolts:
TI Fork Axle Pinch Bolts
TI Rear Rotor Bolts: Mon/SS/888/ST
TI Front Caliper Mounting Bolts: Radial

The brake line is a FREN TUBO "Kevlar" Brake Lines: F&R 749R/999R 2004

Hidden behind the RHINOMOTO Front Axle Slider is a TI Front Axle

The Lower triple clamp was a one off made by Alex Ortner. The top triple and bar risers was made by Cycle Cat. It was one of the first production prototypes.




Also pictured is the BREMBO "GP" Forged Radial Brake M/C: 19x18, a carbon instrument housing, superbright Black KELLERMANN Micro1000 "Halogen" Turn Signal and FEBUR Oversize Oil Cooler: Monster with a custom made screen.

The steering damper mount is a MW Billet Steering Damper Mount: Monster with a OHLINS Universal Steering Damper 68mm

The headlight is a JWS HID Headlight mounted in a blackpoweder painted Harley Headlight bucket. Larry from the "Busy Little Bike Shop" made the billet mount. We used titanium hardware to keep the weight down.


Mirrors are the little CRG Blindsight Mirror.
Reservoirs are RIZOMA .

The Ohlins rear spring was replaced with a titanium spring:

Sil-Moto Equal Length "Spaghetti" Header was ceramic coated in a silver aluminum finish

Billet Suspension hoop is made by Rizoma

Red lens was replaced with a clear CLEAR ALTERNATIVES Lens. A superbright HEAVYCYCLES "LED" Tail Light/Turnsignals: Monster/Buell integrated board replaced the CA supplied LED light n the kit.


Chopped the tail and used a MW License Plate Relocator: 749/999 to mount the plate.

A high quality pre preg CF Passenger Seat Cover: Monster was painted with a red stripe and clear coated. You could actually sit on this tail with out hurting it.


The Black KELLERMANN Micro1000 "Halogen" Turn Signal were mounted on MW Turn Signal Relocator Bracket

The exhaust is a Sil-Moto Hi Mount Slip-ons: M600-750-900, 00+

We have a BST Carbon Fiber Rear Wheel on the rear with an iron BRAKETECH "Full Floating" Rear Rotor. We used a Fren Tubo Kevlar line in the back.

To lighten the bike up some more: we used DP "CF" Chain Adjuster Plates: Monster on the ends of the swingarm and titanium bolts through out: TI Rear Rotor Bolts: Ducati Button, TI Brake Caliper Thru Bolts,



A RHINOMOTO Rear Axle Slider: Monster/ST/SS protects the back. We had to run a drill bit through the center of the swingarm to remove the burr in the middle which prevents the slider rod to slide through.

To lighten up the drive train, we used:
AFAM Light Front Sprocket: 14T-520, TI front sprocket bolts, D.I.D. 520ERV3 Chain, AFAM Rear Sprocket: BST/Marchesini, TI Sprocket Nuts and Titanium Cush Drive Pin,




MW Aluminum Sprocket Cover
MW Billet Reverse Shift Lever: Ducati
Billet Clutch Slave Cylinder 29mm
DP aluminum flywheel
Fren Tubo Kevlar Clutch line
