yann7/11r Posted February 24, 2016 Author Posted February 24, 2016 I've continued with some racetrack event...in 2014 4 Quote
Robinjo Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Really like the GS1000 Martin, so uncomplicated, what circuit were you on in the last picture? Are you going to Spa -Francorchamps for the Bikers Classics? Quote
yann7/11r Posted February 25, 2016 Author Posted February 25, 2016 Picture is from Nevers Magny Cours Racetrack. Spa Francorchamp is far away from my home location... Very nice place. But Not programed at this time. Next trip is Paul Ricard Circuit at Lecastellet in April for the Sundayrideclassic évent. Just spectator... Quote

Ah yes Magny Cours, I've been there for the F1. Your bike would fit well at Spa, lots of cool stuff, I've been there twice as a spectator and this year I will be riding myself, not on the Martin because it's not by their rules but on a stock Katana 1000. Looking forward to seeing your bike evolve even more, keep posting pics Quote
yann7/11r Posted February 27, 2016 Author Posted February 27, 2016 Thanks ! That's the last picture i've made from my MotoMartin. This one is from last winter. Modified rearset position. Installed a Remus bargain silencers...& repositioned the scratched fairing ! End of the story. Very, VERY fun to ride. I think, it's time to show you what i've done, with my another bike. 8 Quote
caferacerdan Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 not seen one of these frames ever in person! looks awesome and glad to see you using it properly on track too! Quote
Gammaboy Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 So, what's it weigh, and out of curiosity what's the wheelbase on it? 1 Quote
yann7/11r Posted March 11, 2016 Author Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) 169kgs dry (no gasoline+oil+standard battery) Just 1400 mm. Edited June 22, 2019 by yann7/11r Correct weight 2 Quote
yann7/11r Posted March 11, 2016 Author Posted March 11, 2016 Could be even much lighter with a pair mag or forged wheels. Maybe should i... 1 Quote

Gammaboy Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 Yeah, used to own a Gamma - miss it, but i reckon that this thing is about the same weight as a stock Gamma, and certainly makes more power than one! 1 Quote
yann7/11r Posted October 21, 2016 Author Posted October 21, 2016 HI to all OSS ! Ok ! Today, i've find the proof that i'm not the only one to have explored this (dark)way... the wedding from an GsxR engine & a spine frame . I find this picture on Face"thing". This one has a lot of similarity with mine...but that's not mine ! Apparently lot of first choice parts. Interested to know who's assembled this one, i've, with the help of some friends, find that this bike is no MotoMartin, but a RAU ( Well know German builder). Gave me some idea for the futur... Quote
TLRS Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Your bike looks like a right beast, very cool No distraction from frame either, just solid line off tank and seat Quote
markfoggy Posted October 22, 2016 Posted October 22, 2016 I met a couple of the Rau brothers a few years ago in one of the classic endurance paddocks. They were testing a new GSX1100 chassis that they had just built, something about Laverda engines that kept shitting themselves. If I can find any photos, I'll post them. 1 Quote
yann7/11r Posted October 22, 2016 Author Posted October 22, 2016 (edited) Thanks markfoggy ! The only photo that i can find in my collection is this one. I take it in Magny Cours in 2011. Rau frame but Kwak engine... Edited October 23, 2016 by yann7/11r Kwak engine in RAU frame Quote
yann7/11r Posted October 22, 2016 Author Posted October 22, 2016 Please accept the fact that this is not OSS ... Quote

I have a hot 1216 motor, a set of Dymags, a frame jig, and a piece of 120mm diameter 4130 cro-mo tube for the the spine. I think I'm going to be spending a lot of time in the workshop this winter.... 3 Quote
