Bottpower carries on the Spanish custom heritage, even if another iconic workshop, Radical Ducati, just announced they're shutting down. The next Bott project does not stray from the extreme path we got used to, and is a cafe-racer build based on the sick XR1.
Itself a derivation of the Buell XB machinery, the XR1 set a new standard in crazy, extreme bikes, and so the XC1 is expected to be at least as exquisite and jaw-dropping.

While most of the standard bike is all XB, the first customer asked for BST carbon wheels, K-Tech suspensions and Brembo brakes. The swingarm is a custom creation which can be loaded on all three bikes: the stock XB, the XR1 or the XC1, as part of an easy conversion from the R to the C.

The engine remains the beastly 1200 Buel v-twin, so we can expect the same top-drawer power and torque and wild character.
