There is something about those awesomely fast racing bikes that you just cannot afford to miss or ignore. But, they are not made for everyone and not all of us are biking experts, to handle them with ease. As a kid and even sometimes today I must confess that I have a problem with the really big and heavy ones that sometimes are far too difficult to control on the turn. But then we have a solution for every auto problem here and there is another fine solution to that problem. It may not be available to you right now, but it might be in the commercial market some time in future if this guy had his way!

Someone calling himself ‘Geometry Slave’ has offered us with this very unique and apparently very light racing bike that has been built after 17 long years of passion for the two wheels! Everything on the bike is hand-built including the 60degree 964cc V-twin. The project started 1991. The complete weight of the bike is 214lbs. The bike has a very neat look to it and while performance and the actual handling are unknown as of now, one hopes that it is as good as it looks. We obviously cannot confirm the ease of handling with pictures, so we will have to take his word for it as of now.

Kawasaki and Ducati MotoGp bikes just started using self supported carbon seat units and BMW HP2 Sport is first to use it fore the road so the maker of this bike also went for the exact same pattern. Now I do hope that makers of bikes pick the idea up and go for lighter models in future.
