Alex Earle actually a design program manager of Volkswagen America. But his ability to design as good on motorcycles particular for street tracker type. Recently Earle featuring a street tracker custom bike design.

Based on the Ducati Monster, his design becomes a figure like never before. Earle just emphasizing his design result as a road legal custom bike that is fast and light, but modern with carbon fiber construction.
"This bike is a form of my personal interest," said Earle. "Equipped with the Ducati propulsion systems, oversized tires, seat height, and graphics then the bike has been proportional to the flat tracks."
Earle start with a sketch design, and create a model with a scale of 1: 5. Then the scanned 3D models, to further mold body panels made by miling machine. So that the result is a figure proportional, dynamic and aesthetic.

This custom motorcycle has a light weight which is equivalent to the Honda CBR300R, which is 157 kg without fuel. Earle was deliberately set design by reduced its weight, such as 19-inch rims of its billet.

The rider position has adapted to supermoto style, with its seat height approximately 850 mm, completed with a Vortex flat handlebar. Its monocoque body made of carbon fiber materials, such as 1970s Montesa Cota. But with modern touches, such as Niroxx upholstery with suede textured but waterproof.
Its engine is an air-cooled 900 cc Ducati Monster engine, which still uses carburetors. Meanwhile, the rust-resistant exhaust itself is designed to maximize the output power.

Uniquely, Earle plans to only make 5 production models (only the red model available, meanwhile the white model was sold). And theremainingthreeproductionmodelswill follow later. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | EARLE MOTORS | DUCCUTTERS]
