Few things are as satisfying as seeing a beautifully restored classic sportbike. There's just something about the styling of the 1980s that really speaks to me, especially when looked at in contrast to the wild and radical designs of today's crop of performance-oriented machines. Motorcycles like the legendary Suzuki XR69 are definitely a lot simpler to the eyes as opposed to the winglet-laden, ultra-sharp superbikes we have today.
That said, folks with an appreciation for classic superbikes, but don't have the time, budget, and space to acquire one for themselves, can live vicariously through dB Customs' newest creation: a from-the-ground-up tribute to the Suzuki XR69. At a glance, you'd think that this was a restored and customized GSX1100 or equivalent sportbike of the era. However, the folks at dB Customs have gone through the painstakingly meticulous process of building this bike from a mish mash of parts, and making them all work seamlessly together in a machine that looks like it just rolled of the assembly line.
