Sorry, if it is anything, it is a turbo ....

Lucky Bastard

I wanted to build an extreme minimalistic bike. I noticed the Suzuki LS650 because of the large capacity of the single cylinder engine. And when she is stripped of a lot of parts she looks already quite nice; a good base to start from.
By the end of the build I thought, I will enter this project for a bike show. To make a long story short, I had a fantastic time at the Bigtwin Bike Show in November 2007 where I won first prize in the Custom Class!

Engine: Suzuki LS650 Savage, 1 cylinder 652cc, 5 speed
Completely overhauled by Rno Cycles, painted and polished

Carburetor: Mikuni, with K&N filter
Exhaust: Stainless steel by Rno Cycles

Frame: Suzuki LS650, modified by Rno Cycles.
Swing arm: Stainless Steel by Rno Cycles
Front fork: Suzuki LS650 overhauled by Rno Cycles
Yokes by Rno Cycles (6° raked)

Front wheel: Honda CBR900RR 16in
Tyre: Bridgestone Battlax BT014 130/70
Rear wheel: Honda CBR900RR 17in
Tyre: Bridgestone Battlax BT014 180/55.

Brakes: Front caliper; Nissin (Honda CBR900RR), Rear caliper; Brembo
Hoses; Goodridge stainless steel

Tank: Stainless steel by Rno Cycles (1 half tank, other half houses electrics)

Various: Seat, Handlebar, Footpegs, Battery box, Sidemount by Rno Cycles.

And countless "One-Off" stainless steel handcrafted parts.
This fusion bike has a handshifter with a clutch lever attached to it.
