Haxch Moto He leaves us speechless with the last rabbit that has been taken from the hat in the form of this superb XZR900 Thunderbolt. A preparation that brings together all the ingredients so that the most Petrolhead Let’s end up surrendering at the foot of the London specialist. Only with a look at this preparation of high flights are aware of the work, dedication and passion that has been deposited in this project.
XZR900 Thunderbolt in detail
The objective was clear, as the British coach tells from its official website. The main idea was based on achieving “A radical reinvention of the Yamaha XSR90 2022 that takes its soul from the adrenaline -filled racing machines of the 1990s.” Yes, you have read well, the basis of this project is a magnificent XSR900 “Harvest 2022”. A platform that brings together all the necessary ingredients to shape this trip in time.
Specifically to the golden age of motorcycling (from the end of the eighties to the early 2000s), a time where ingenuity had no brake and therefore motorcycles were designed very similar to the one that Haxch Moto has recreated with this XZR900 Thunderbolt. However, the way until we achieve the final result that we show you in these images has not been at all simple.
The XZR900 Thunderbolt has a fairing and an aluminum tank made by hand, evoking the spirit of racing motorcycles of the 90s. In addition, this unique preparation deserved a unique decoration, thanks to a paint scheme inspired by this same time, designed specifically for this project and based on the essence of past creations of Yamaha.
Beyond the aesthetic plane is the incredible work carried out by the Haxch Moto team on the technical level. According to its creators, the XZR900 Thunderbolt has a final weight much lower than the XSR900 in series. Likewise, geometry has been optimized with an elevation of 40 mm in the rear through an aluminum connecting rusting, which reduces launch and advance.
The suspension team is signed by Maxton, while alloy wheels are Dymag’s work. These drastically reduce the non -suspended mass. The braking kit is courtesy of Hel Performance, while the well -known CP3 engine that Equipa has been reassigned and tested in a dynamometer by Seton Tuning. The climax to this waste of talent and passion in equal parts comes in the form of good news for those who have fallen in love at first sight of the XZR900 Thunderbolt.
As the Haxch Moto team has communicated: “This construction is more than a unique piece: it is a platform. Haxch Moto now offers this configuration as a personalized limited production, with each motorcycle manufactured at the request and adapted to the specifications of the owner. The future Thunderbolt will be manufactured in carbon fiber with molds of the original aluminum panels shown here.”
But this is not all because also “A approved version is being developed to circulate with a front lighthouse, discreet flashing and registration holder, which will be available in the coming months.”
Said all this, the orders for this version are already open, so if you are clear what you want your next track motorcycle to be, click on this link and make your dream come true.
