Concept:


We did a quick mock up with the totalled RS125. It is quickly apparent that a hub center steered vehicle will help keep the frontal area to a minimum. A standard fork and triple clamp will force the riders head up a another 2-3 inches creating greater frontal area and additional drag.


Chris and I start building the frame. I machine all the hard connection points and Chris joins all those points with tubing.


We are feeling the need for speed and let
speedy building techniques override aesthetic
decisions. It yields a product slightly agricultural
but gets the job done.
