so my old man used to be a big flat tracker… he recently cleaned out his moms barn and gave me a 69 BSA 441. the mtr is junk and the forks are gone to. so me being a bit of a fabricator and just wanting to build something cool and new(to me) i decided to go through it and make it a little more up to date. the Donner bike is a 99 400wr i got for a good deal. it was owned by a 48 year old man that barely rode it. i just stripped the bsa to the frame and am now starting to tear down the perfectly running WR 🙂 i will be taking the mtr, harness, and front suspension. i will most likely be running 17 inch warp 9 motard wheels just for street tire selection(it will be a street bike) i’ll post pics up soon. if anyone has any cool pics send away i could use some ideas. ---

I don’t care what you do to this bike, this is going to be a great build, you always make some serious toys. ---

this id the front wheel. i like the big front rotor. i know flat track bikes dont have front brakes but if I’m on the street and some grandma pulls out in front on me… i want to be able to stop and plus it looks sweet:) ---

I know a hand full of CRAZY flat track guys. Rotax bikes, big twins, shit I dont know the first thing about, but know I would never throw a leg over it and pitch it into a turn! Big props to real flat track racers, they got more nutt than I do on 2 wheels! A buddy of mine is starting a Indian 500 flat track bike. Again one fucking nasty bike on the oval. They are so cool to just look at and watch them back into a turn at 100 bar to bar. Watching this for sure! GL with it and ride safe! ---
