Yeah sorry Dave, I know what that is no problem. It's the silver bike with the Swiss flag emblem on the tank. Looks like it's disc valve induction and the engine (what you can see of it) looks like it maybe came out of a snowmobile.

That's a Tularis by the look of it. Polaris snomobile engine in a bike made by Rob Tuluie.

Well i would imagine it has to have something to do with Eskil Suter...... its not based on the MuZ as its clearly a twin, but has to be something to do with him with that paintjob and emblem

Suter's company are SRT and have a different logo.

- definitely a Tularis.

^_^ This should be the bike in question...

Sorry, I don´t understand french, maybe somebody can translate it..

Dunno much french but it looks like..

800cc Twin two stroke

180PS?

135Kg

Frame and engine cases are integral and machined out of a single 450KG block of Billet

Water jet machining used for several parts

Thats about as much as I can gleam out of the site..

Good find BTW :)

Edit> Maybe WD or someone can help with the translation?

No, I think it's Yamaha TZR bits. Reverse cylinder frame and v-twin swingarm?

looks like v twin tz to me unless its 3xv tzr? definitly yamaha though which makes it even more appealing. is the blue/yallow bike with beam frame (one the same behind it with diffrent coulrs) an rg500 based motor? i think it belongs to a french sprint champion who knows how to ride very quick and tune the rg500 to mad hp levels witrh his eyes shut. kinda like randy norian and mick dent.

I think the swinger is 3XV/4DL , I'll have to look at the frame hung up in my garage to check if it's 3MA :icon_blackeye:
