FLAKES's SR400

YAMAHA_SR400_2.jpg

Flakes' newest offering is a cafe racer based on the high-performance SR400, with intricately designed exterior, engine, and suspension. The exterior is characterized by a customized Peyton Place rocket cowl, featuring Cognito moto's LED projector headlight and GPS meter. The fuel tank is manufactured by Brooklands and combines with a seat modified by Motoco to create a cohesive design. Notably, the frame incorporates a looped LED taillight, resulting in a simple yet captivating rear view.

The bike utilizes SOHC Engineering's Φ90 lightweight pistons for the engine, resulting in an increased displacement of 534cc. Equipped with a Yoshimura FCR-MJN39 carburetor, the bike showcases a one-off two-pipe exhaust system and an over racing silencer, offering both striking aesthetics and superior performance. The rear suspension features Ohlins components, while WP reinforced springs are installed in the front. This bike represents a high-performance SR model that seamlessly combines traditional elements with the latest advancements in style and technology.
