Yamaha SR500 - D-Track

The legendary D-Track by JvB-moto

Designer: Jens vom Brauck | Conversion base: SR500

A modern 70s-style mixture of desert racer and Kenny Roberts' famous flat-track style - that's how you could describe our first project in collaboration with Cologne-based designer Jens vom Brauck. The finished custom bike weighs about 15 kilos less than a standard SR500, is fully suitable for everyday use and is immensely fun to ride in the city or on country roads. The riding position is pleasantly upright, the handling easy and fluid. The stainless steel exhaust emits a muffled roar into the environment, but never seems obtrusive. The front 2-piston brake caliper can be sensitively dosed and has the B-Track firmly under control at all times. Numerous detail solutions make the bike a flawless fun machine with a timeless combination of vintage look and modernity. Radical minimalism, high-mounted exhaust, huge round slide carburettor with open air filter and a restrained and classy colour scheme - the bike has a raw competition look without being intimidating. The D-Track invites you to get right on it for a wheelie... or just go out for buns.
