The XR-1 project is going ahead in a steady and constant way. As you can see in the photos, the construction of the first chassis is very advanced. We still must weld the shock mounting point and some other details. In the following days we will start with the bike assembly. We look forward to

Our previous post about the BOTT XR-1 was covered by a lot of webs and blogs, these are some expamples: The kneeslider, Hell For Leather, trendsnow.net, autoblog.com, asphaltandrubber.com, visordown.com, etc. The XR-1 also appeared in Spanish paper magazines like Motociclismo or Solomoto30. Spanish magazine Formula Moto is also writing a good article about the XR-1,

Probably the final resoult will be quite different to what you can see in these images, but looking at them you will have a good idea about what’s going on with the BOTT XR-1 project. The BOTT XR-1 is a bike based on a Buell, who acts as a donor of wheels, suspensions, brakes, engine
As I wrote in the last post, right now we are working building the bike. Although we still must receive some components (we still need the bodywork, exhaust, brakes, air intake conduit, display, etc) we couldn’t avoid to take some photos. Following Bottpower’s “tradition” we painted the chassis orange. The bike looks much better with
