Overmile the Dirt-Fighter

Blog. Beringer, dirt-tracker, Fournales, Freddy Bertrand, Krugger Motorcycles, Overmile Custom bike building, street fighter

What kind of motorcycle has the following combination: a 1700cc (103 ci) Shovelhead S&S motor, six-speed tranny Beringer brakes and Fournales pneumatic suspension? Oh, and I forgot to add a beautul dirt-tracker style with street-fighter imagery. Of course, I am talking about Freddy Bertrand’s Overmile. This creation debuted on August last year at the Sturgis biker gathering in the Black Hills of Dakota.
Take a look at the video to see this custom bike in action.

Nothin’ Fancy but beautiful

Blog. Atom Bomb Custom Motorcycles, Bobber, Chris Mizak, Clay Rathburn, Custom, TR6R, Triumph

If you are looking for a custom Triumph I have a good idea where you should start. This 1970 Triumph TR6R is a 2009 project by Clay Rathburn, and it is called Nothin’ Fancy, but it received the ‘Inspiration Award’ and the Best Motorcycle award at the 2009 Detroit Autorama.
Lets see the bike: classic british bobber with modified motocross parts in the front end, scrambler style exhaust, an in house hammering fuel tank and a custom formed aluminium oil tank. The engine was fully rebuilt. And the look of this bike… simple, elegant. Chris Mizak has done a very good job.

Tatra V8 bike from dbbp.com

Blog. dbbp.com, Tatra

Nino had this fantastic engine. It the engine of a Tatra 603.

It is an aircooled V8 with 2500 ccm and round about 100 HP and an amazing torque. The two Coolerfans make a howling sound like a turbine. This sound mixed with the uncompareable sound of a V8 machine makes your hair stand up.

The Gearbox he took from a P3-Sachsenring (its an offroad car of the east German Army) modified it and put it on the engine.

The rest of the bike is completely selfbuilt by Nino. The most difficult thing to built was the rearwheel-drive. Therefore he took the gearwheels of an old Mitsubishi Pajero Differential and built a Kardan. And it works.
