Seat and chrome parts

GR650 update

My brother just send me this pics. Finally the new seat arrived and the chrome tail light and exhaust for the GR650. Can't wait to see it with my own eyes!!! The seat cover is made by local seat upholstery, Klaassen Originals, in Eindhoven. Thanks Flake kings for helping us out with the chrome parts!

Dirt Quake 5 - inappropriate Road Bike Class - Final

Dirt Quake V was, again, super rad! Great crowd, awesome bikes and riders, fantastic weather and top notch atmosphere all around the event. 

Gary Sideburn put me and my GR650 in the Inappropriate Road Bike Class this year, I don't know why but thanks anyhow Gary! But to be honest, my bike was not very inappropriate compared to the rest of the grid, haha. 

We had 30 riders in our class. 3 groups of 10 riders that did 2 heats. The first heat I finished 3rd in my group and in the second heat I finished 2nd so I qualified for the final...! Rad! As you can see I had a very bad start in the final, falling back to the end of the grid, and half way trough the race I had some trouble passing the Yamaha T-Max... Yes a giant T-max motor scooter, ha! In the end I finished 4th. Not too bad...! Glad I did not brake any bones this year, hahaha! 

Thank you so much Martin for riding us again to King's Lynn and for helping me built this GR650 Town Smoker! Zoran from the Rusty Gold Motorshop joined us this year and also finished 4th in the chopper class on his XS650! Thank you Rev'it! for sponsoring the Rev'it! Monster 2 gloves! Goal for next year is to race the GR650 in the street tracker class.

Hells Race 2016 #8

Too wet to ride at training day.. :(

Hells Race 2016 #2

On Saturday it was raining on and off, and no sun to dry the track. Water all over the Helzold speedway track, so sadly no training. Still we had an awesome day :)
Here are some pictures of mr Silver Machine unloading the GR650 while martin is waking up in his bathrobe.. :)

Trip to Hells Race in a 1973 M.A.N. Berlin doubble decker

My brothers neighbor, Dennis, had the brilliant idea to go to Hells Race with his 1973 M.A.N. Berlin doubble decker. Rad! :)
Perfect way to start our little adventure, ha! So we put all the stuff we had in the doubble decker, GR650 in the back and off go to the land of beer, bbq and flat track

The new wheels arrived!

My brother just send me these pictures. It took ages but today the new wheels finally arrived in Eindhoven and I'm stoked! Just in time for Hellsrace this weekend :)
Maxxis dtr-1 tyres and new wider rims on the old GR650 hubs.
 Can't wait to put them on the bike this Thursday.
