If my Hayabusa has a kid, does that make me a grandfather?
I tried to buy a no fluids ever 06 Honda NSF100 but price went too high. I search for them from time to time for a project to make street legal, but this time I had the idea to possibly put aftermarket NSF bodywork on a Grom. Which it was feasible, but would never handle like it looked....then while looking for NSF bodywork I came across this thing.
2022 Kayo MR150R. Track bike, 150cc, normal or MotoGP shifting. It's from overseas, but people seem to like them. I had average expectations for quality of parts, but was wrong. Sitting on it everything is super solid. All controls feel OEM. Bodywork is thick and solid, kelvar reinforced mounting spots and mounting is simple yet robust. Quality of gelcoat is decent, better than expected. Could sand mold lines and polish.
Will see no track time, one of the main reasons for the purchase was to push myself with drawing and printing in 3D. I will also go thru the vehicle registration process and get it plated. I bought it as a long term project to be built up as such, a street legal mini MotoGP. Do a legit full build starting with 3d scanning the bike so I can make inner dash panels that'll include modern TFT gauges. Will design winglets, taillight with bezel, R1M/Panigale style headlights, seat base, etc. Will add some real tech to the bike using the MotoGadget Mo.Unit Blue, when I walk up it'll recognize my phone and allow me to start it. Signal fading, brake modulator with settings for both, built in alarm, digital fuses, loads of stuff. I measured everything and started locating parts that will or could be modified to fit.
