Additional Info | The concept behind "Chica experience" rotates around the word "Essential" we reduced the original XL 500 till the minimum parts possible(frame, engine, wheels). From there we rebuilt it from scratch, using our skills and creativity for make it funny to use. The owner lives on the mountain, then our priority was to make an agile Chopper, watching the face of who rides it, we think (we know) that we centered our target. Hard tail frame in Steel, handmade aluminium tank (capacity 8 litres), Manifold and exhaust hand made in aluminium, hand transmission on the left, with hand and pedal clutch, Air filter K&N, and for stay simple, a nice Kickstarter. |
