Big Twin Racers - Rolling Chassis Kits

BTR development started back in 1997. The idea was to take a big American V-twin and stuff it into a sport bike chassis, use quality suspension components, powerful brakes and an aggressive riding style. The first models used a solid mount motor tranny assembly wich soon gave way to a more rider friendly rubber mounted powerplant. Making that possible was the design of a new stiffer frame and swing arm, not having to rely on the engine as a stressed member meant that the frame could have more longitudinal ridgitity, something hard to come by when using a powerplant that is not of unit construction. Critical components such as oil tank and gas tank are rubber mounted so that over time vibration won't be a problem. BTR has focused their attention on building the most unique concept to hit the industry in years.
