This is not my bike, but my friend Charles’ Bike. All the graphics were done in vinyl to replicate the MotoGP machine.
The influence:
The Result:
While I must say it does look exactly like the race bike… it’s ugly.
A+ for effort though!
People will not know that he rode a bike like that.
They will see the number and might recognize it, but he races with Fiat logos.
Its also not a GP bike 
Might as well plaster motocyscz(sp?) stickers on it 
Cool bike :tup:
Looks good. And anyone that knows anything about gp racing should recognize the go!!! I’ve thought of doing this to my bike so many times
haha A for effort i guess
^Dumb logic
Guess I should have put “motorcycle content” in the title for the people that aren’t so into it. Being in the motorcycle forum wasn’t enough apparently.
Can you point me in the direction of the full res version of the first picture with Rossi in it?
I’m not saying it does not look like the bike pictured.
I have love/hate feelings for replica bikes.
I relate them to nascar. You can not buy a similar machine to ride everyday.
I watch motoGP, and have done so for a while… ever since I watched the movie “Faster”
Its definitely the 1st “test bike” replica I have seen.
WTF does “motorcycle content” mean?
Just because you post about a bike, in a bike forum, does not mean I have to like it?
Edit: I guess people do like test bikes.
You can buy a die cast replica.

That one is $595 AUD…
Glad he chose not to replicate this one…
no worries, just posting for a friend
And I believe the the technology that trickles down from motogp to street bikes is a little bit more evident than nascar to road cars. ie: the new R1 and its “big bang” firing order or traction control on street bikes.
True… looks good.
besides the technology from a new monte carlo to a nascar car Vs. r1 and m1 are apples to oranges.
:lol:
Bez’s bike looks good. I love the exhaust… how obnoxious is it?
I think it looks awesome. :tup:
I’ll hunt it down. I have to get the addy from him
I have yet to hear it in person, but he told me it is extremely throaty and fairly loud.
It’s come a long way since i owned it, huh?
looks just like it
but i would have chose a different one
edit: i love that exhaust
Thanks :tup:
I’m not sure wich ebay store it is (auctmart i think), but you can buy this full replica street trim or race trim plastics for like $500 shipped for almost any generation yzf600r/r6/r1
<3 beeeeezzzzzzzzz
while you are correct, i think my bike is a lot closer to the original than what you get on ebay. just sayin’
Oh, i absolutly agree, i was just making an argument against “test bike replica” lol
obviously some people like it. (myself included)
