Raptor Force

It’s a strange phenomenon: we always think of dinosaurs as green. But we’re not talking about cuddly dinosaurs or dusty fossils. The Raptor is a predator, and with the Raptor Force we took the risk of expressing elemental forces on two wheels. Admittedly, it could have been the color that gave us the idea. Our customer wanted the same green we used for our Green Booster. So our concept evolved coherently from one detail to the next.

We mounted the Hollywood Light 32 handlebars to the old-style risers, which are as wide as a bird of prey. The satin-finish grips resemble the scales of a dinosaur, and the stripe indicators hidden underneath are barely noticeable. In our prehistoric times, not only did those with powerful looks survive, they also had to be good at camouflage and deception. That is why dinosaurs with turn signals did not prevail in the selection mechanisms of nature.

For the rear end of the Raptor, we went all out. Our single-sided swingarm kit is one-armed, allowing a view of the 21-inch Big Speed rear wheel on the right side. The left side is equally impressive. This is where we mounted our perimeter brake. Anyone who doesn’t dream of elemental forces at this sight has no imagination. Our side license plate holder exposes the Raptor’s 260 millimeter rear leg. It gives the predator the jumping power it needs in the wild.

The steel fender above is made of metal, and the indicators and fender are also well concealed in it. The seat shell with custom-made saddle and ancient-looking diamond pattern is adapted to this. What we have also adapted is our luggage rack. We’re not showing it here because we’re offering you the clean line for the show. But it can be easily attached to the bolts under the saddle. Then our Raptor really does have the survival capacities required in the wilderness of the new millennium.

Überlebenskapazität bietet auch die Shorty Big Shot-Schalldämpferanlage von Jekill & Hyde. Sie ist völlig legal und behütet euch vor den uniformierten Raptoren unserer Zeit. Angepasst darauf die Krümmer und deshalb auch die vorverlegte Satin-Fußrastenanlage. Airbox-Cover, Kupplungsdeckel und Zündungsdeckel entstammen unserer Torque-Linie. Sie zeigen unser Thunderbike-Logo.

The Shorty Big Shot Silencer System from Jekill & Hyde also offers survivability. It is completely legal and will protect you from today’s uniformed predators. The manifolds and the forward mounted satin footrest system are adapted to it. The airbox cover, clutch cover and ignition cover are from our Torque line. They feature our Thunderbike logo.

Breeding also played a role in the prehistoric struggle for survival, as Charles Darwin discovered in the later years of his research. So it wasn’t just those who were fit and had the strongest claws that survived, but also those who looked the best to their mating partners. So the pillion footrests stayed on for a reason. Now add a passenger footrest and we’ve ensured that our dinosaurs won’t become extinct.
