Yamaha back again with its 'Customized' machine

Yamaha has made a bounce back with its customized machines second time in a month. Celebrating 20 years of XJR, a Spanish Custom House El Solitario modified the bike XJR1300 which is named as ‘Big Bad Wolf’ under Yamaha’s Yard Built program. XJR1300 is the last bike falling under the XJR builds on its anniversary, which includes motorcycles from the various custom house across Europe.

EL Solitario David Loner, who states himself as motorcycle poet, said that the bike is ‘one of the gnarliest muscle bikes we’ve seen in recent years’. Yamaha did the same thing with V-Max by converting it into a concept bike in an association with German tuner, celebrating its 30 year anniversary

As reported by VisorDown, The details which were revealed in Yamaha’s Press Release on the Big Bad Wolf are:

• Reshaped chambers and increased squish areas
• Titanium bolts
• Power of 148 bhp
• Exhaust made by Asahina racing in Japan

Acke Rising from ISR in Sweden did a lot of machining sing the El Solitario designs to make custom triple trees, disc rotors and the incredible rear brake caliper bracket. ISR hand controls were added along with ISR front 6 piston calipers and rear 4 pistons caliper.

A TWM custom gas cap sets off the tank and a stunning custom aluminum swingarm by Over Racing in Japan finishes the rear along with a set of their rear seats. The BBW was wired using the Motogadget M-Unit & uses the M-Lock for on/off. Corona supplied the super cool quick shifter and PIAA supplied the intense headlights.

The BBW stays stuck to the tarmac with Michelin street, slick and rain tires to maximize the fun whatever the conditions. Last but by no means least the beautiful custom graphics and paint was the work of London artist Death Spray Custom.
