A Few Days Ago,

we made a post,

 about a chrome motorcycle, well here is another one, but this time using stainless steel instead of chrome,

 and another difference, this one is only 250 cc, it was built as a replica broad-track racer, a murderous sport if ever there was one,

 Andika Pratama, head of Kromworks, ‘The concept was supposed to be a board-tracker,’ Andika says, ‘We weren’t stuck to the idea in general, I wanted to apply some innovation to the concept of a board-tracker so I decided to use stainless steel for everything that went onto it.’ 

 ‘The first thing I designed was the flow between the frame backbone and the swing arm,’ he adds. ‘Making a frame with stainless steel as opposed to other metal is harder – and welding it is quite the challenge in itself.’ after much cutting and shutting and welding, grinding and cursing Kromworks turned their attention to the tank,

  the two-part fuel tank is essential to making this little Cleveland CycleWerks look so impeccably clean, there’s a bunch of space between the tunnel and tank itself, allowing for all the electronics to be tucked hidden away inside, take a good long look at the bike, there’s a clutch cable and a throttle cable visible but nothing in the way of wiring showing,

 the whole motorcycle has been created using 316 stainless steel, which was polished and left raw, there’s plenty of neat little details scattered throughout the bike, but three things make Andika feel particularly proud, ‘I think the head light, swing arm and front suspension are the things I’m proudest of,’ he says. ‘I made them all by hand, without using a CNC machine or anything like that’,

the seat may look a little uncomfortable, but lets face it, the bike is for speed not comfort, would I like it? of course!
