DNA Custom Cycles’ Aviation-Themed Beauty: A CB750 Masterpiece
DNA Custom Cycles has crafted a masterpiece that’s sure to take your breath away. Born from the humble bones of a 1982 CB750F2, this custom creation is a true work of art. It seamlessly blends vintage charm with modern innovation, and pays homage to one of the world’s most iconic Silver Spitfire plane.
From Donor Bike to Aviation Elegance
The journey of this magnificent machine began with a donor bike, the 1982 CB750F2, but its destiny was far from ordinary. Inspired by the timeless beauty of polished Spitfire planes from yesteryears, DNA Custom Cycles set out to create a motorcycle that would be a true throwback to the golden age of aviation.
Turning Dreams Into Reality
The transformation of this bike was no small feat. It required not only vision but also a great deal of engineering ingenuity. Here are some of the remarkable modifications and features that make this motorcycle a true standout:
- Aprilia SXV550 wheels were not just installed; they were made to work safely.
- The GSXR1000 front end received meticulous attention and was complemented by a custom CNC triple tree that houses a sleek Motogadget mini dash.
- Rather than using common body parts that would identify the Honda CB750, the team took inspiration from an unexpected source: a Ducati Imola green frame and tank. The tank’s width elegantly conceals the engine’s breadth, creating a harmonious visual flow.
- The headlight node is a remarkable piece of craftsmanship, crafted from aircraft alloy, and tailored to house a small, elegant headlight.
- A CBR600F4i swingarm ensures stability and control.
- The mufflers, showcasing the team’s resourcefulness, are modified Ducati Monster 750 carbon cans.
Perfection in Every Detail
The dedication to perfection didn’t stop at the aesthetics. Every aspect of the bike was meticulously checked and corrected. Even the engine, which was supposed to be a fresh rebuild, revealed bent valves and gearbox issues. Nothing was left unexamined.
Unleashing the Beast
Under the hood, this beauty packs a punch with new Mikuni RS36 pumper carbs, breathing air into the lungs of this airstream art-piece. To heap keep the heart pumping, even at high compression, this CB750 is fitted with a Wiseco piston kit and CB900 cams.
While dyno figures are yet to be revealed, there’s no doubt that this motorcycle will deliver an exhilarating ride with its upgraded performance components.
DNA Custom Cycles has not only created a motorcycle but a work of art that pays homage to the timeless elegance of aviation. This CB750 masterpiece seamlessly blends the vintage charm of yesteryears with the power and performance of modern engineering. It’s a true testament to the craftsmanship and dedication of the DNA Custom Cycles team. Whether you’re a motorcycle enthusiast or simply an admirer of impeccable design, this aviation-themed masterpiece will leave you in awe.
