Bike 2: The Martini Racing Tribute Bike:<br />
This bike was originally purchased as a donor bike for the<br />
Ferraley...<br />
Before we get into the bike – the 1977 Porche 911T – also<br />
built by Evan is quite historic. That car used to belong to<br />
Ace SA race photographer Steve Wicks. Great to see a<br />
classic built to its full glory.<br />
The Harley also started its life as an 883 “R” sporty – just<br />
an older, carbureted model.<br />
It’s flippen gorgeous – same-same but different. The<br />
colour scheme is quite something – the classic blue with<br />
silver detailing by Ashley Bothma works so well on this<br />
Iron. That front scoop is pinched from a Suzuki GSXR.<br />
Handmade bits like the custom pipe, air filter cover and<br />
chain guard just compliment the bike.<br />
Lots of imported Roland Sands goodies are also to be<br />
found, with custom stepped Harley rims and the same<br />
rolled rear fender as on the other bike. This one has been<br />
fitted with a custom LED tail light and indicator setup.<br />
Very cool.<br />
Fox shocks are mounted out back and, just like the sister<br />
Ferraley much attention has been paid to the front end.<br />
Race Tech internals replace the standard fare.<br />
Once again, the cockpit is sparse in a note to Evans love<br />
for dirtbikes.<br />
A beautiful Motogadget digi display is mounted in the<br />
top triple clamp – everything is subtle and minimalistic,<br />
beautifully crafted. Front indicators are to be found<br />
nestled in the rearview mirrors.<br />
It is a beauty. A rolling work of art.
