My build tread, sorry not a pure Supermoto, but think it really fits in this sub section
like to call it a Shed Build, but in my set of circumstances its more of an Apartment or out on the Deck Build.
Starting with a KTM 990 engine, harness back dated to run a 950 CDI and harness topped off with Sudco Keihin 41 FCR carbs, its the lightest most compact V Twin complete with starter motor engine unit weighs approx 136lbs v 150lbs for the famous XR 750 engine i originally wanted to use, but to keep it more useable and significantly reduce build cost settled on the K motor.
J&M chassis with Penske Shock ordered expected delivery mid August.
front end is 990 Superduke 48mm WP's with 1 radial mount 4 piston Brembo, turned to be perfect length based on J&M recommendations of 29-31" spindle to top of fork length, next Durelle adj billet triple clamps and Roland Sands RSD forged billet CNC 19" wheels.
this is no catalog bike as only a couple were built before the GNC1 pro rules changed, as per photo on Waters Racing "Project K" riden by Jeremy Higgins pictured, so plenty of opportunity for many custom handcrafted parts will be required to complete the build.
