If you ride a motorcycle near the Arctic Circle, chances are it's going to be a cool one on the temperature side. In the case of Roel Sheffers customized Yamaha GTS1000, you're going to have a cool ride from an aesthetic point of view too.
Sheffers is a mechanical engineer who took his skills and added them to his passion for motorcycles to come up with a very unique bike, a hybrid of several motorcycles all rolled into one with some extreme modifications to say the least. Using parts from two different Hondas to construct his front wheel and assembly, and the engine from a FZR1000 to gain an extra few horsepower, the bike is a real blend of parts, not to mention some creative customizations to get it all together in the frame. Check out the one of a kind aluminum tank and seat, all handbuilt. One very cool ride!!
