The long awaited Flyin Fred Merkel #VFR750 #Superbike is NOW complete and the customer traveled from the USA today to pick it up. This is as close to the actual representation of the original 86 superbike that Fred rode, with a slew of HRC components, including: #HRC front magnesium wheel, HRC left exit exhaust with HRC springs (front downtubes Cerakoted), HRC fairing inserts and air ducts, HRC fender mount and fender, HRC rear fender, HRC swingarm, HRC rotors, HRC tach and temp gauge, HRC style rearsets, HRC steering damper, HRC oil cooler line mod, HRC wiring harness, and HRC tripe clamp and bar risers. The engine is an ex Dr David Kieffer HRC kitted NF1 180 degree firing order with digital ignition and NF1 mechanical round slide carbs. The forks are RC30 pieces with RC30 calipers. The rear shock is an original Fox. The rear wheel is a custom ordered 3 spoke Marvic, just like that used on Fred’s bike! The amazing paint work and livery (all paint no vinyl), was painstakingly recreated by our partners over at @sketchs_ink. Amazing work and can’t thank them enough for having the patience to make sure the decal colors and placement and size and configuration were accurate! Thanks so much! Many historical images were referenced to try and produce a correct representation of the original superbike that Fred rode. dB Customs is so privileged to help create this masterpiece for our customer!
