As if "wolf" was not enough, German builders Custom Wolf felt the need to add some "turbo" in the mix, to make things look and feel just right, and they were absolutely right.
The Suzuki Bandit 1200 is a truly nifty bike for those who appreciate the smooth powerful way this machine rolls. However, when it comes to truly evil bikes, the big Bandit is a rather small thief, if you get the joke.
Since Custom Wolf wanted to show just how brutal can such a ride become, the first thing was to add a turbo charger to the intake, thus solving the power problem. A GSX-1100R provided the frame, since it was clear that a beastly engine had to be loaded into a more sporty chassis, with a Wolf subframe.
Now the game was on, and more high-performance parts were direly needed. A Hayabusa triple tree came in place, holding the fork now loaded with Wilbers springs and a modified MT 03 headlight. An ARC/ Custom Wolf swingarm was manufactured, and Akront 2-piece 17” rims installed.
The ABM pegs, GSX-R brakes which now squeeze the wave rotors and the Motogadget gauge are the last mass-produced parts of the Turbo Wolf. Fender, handlebars, rear cowl and seat, exhaust and other switches and mounts, they are all made in-house. Not sure if the Turbo Wolf is exactly street legal, but we believe it smokes many other bikes on the track.
