Moto-Dynamix New Zealand-built bike

**Shaun Harris** · 3rd January 2008, 12:01

I am working on a new! New Zealand built bike at the moment, this morning I recieved a photo of how the whole deal will look completed, with body work etc, and it is trick!!! And there is a very professional organisation in place to mass produce the chassis kit for me!

The design has been going on since May last year, and the first and only one, has been ridden tested on the roads in the UK, just before I went from the UK to the TT- YES, it is FFFFFFFuuuunnnnn AWSOME, and very easy to ride fast!

We have built the first one around a ZX10 Motor, as they are so cheap to buy, but are also looking at 5 other motor designs to fit the same basic package, for individualls choice.

Suspension on the test rig at the moment is Ohlin,s suspension, but when the originall bike arrives here for further testing, I will asking Robert T, to build a few different spec shocks, to see if we can make it better than it already is, Shocks? Yea, 1x front end 1x rear end!

We will also be testing using the Penske shock as well.

It will be a while untill I can release any photo's, but will do, as soon as I can.

But ye ha, a Kiwi Built bike again

This will be potentially available as a kitset for the suitably insane?

Scared of having your sexuality challenged?? If a pink bike wins then nobody can call it gay.

If I could be half as clever as John and his crew over the years, I would be a very happy chappy

I cannot say to much about it as yet, due to legal reasons, design time contract etc, another part of the legal contract is photo's, I now have one that I could show people, if they were here in my office! but NOT allowed to copy, or post, or email, untill the FIRST FINISHED PROTO TYPE ARRIVES IN NZ.

January 08, I am allowed to start talking about it a little bit! as well as, I had not had a chance, to be able to talk with Robert Taylor, Ohlins NZ, about a few points relating to this bike and the New Zealand customer for it and suspension needs, which we both under stand well, due to our years of work in this world

AGreee to differ as we do

I am extremelly pleased to say that Robert and Moto-D will be working together very closely on it, with set up base development of the suspension package, ( Dam Dyno's

) whether you the cuctomer choose Penske or Ohlin's for your bike.

The first bike, is based on the first one I rode in May 07, the photo I now have, is the version of my requests after the test ride session on UK roads back then, and the one and only to arrive here in March? will be the base bike, for me to finish Body work Style, and fine tune either Ohlin's and Penske Shocks for the bike.

So, March is when all production costings contracts etc will begin, and my aim is to have a professional NZ Built bike availlable as a track day bike by the end of July 08 For track day use to start with for sale/lease, and then continue on with the road legal version.
