Scooper Fighter Custom Wolf

Wolfgang Baetz is the owner of Custom Wolf workshop in Bavaria, and he’s been building bikes for over 20 years. When he sold his personal bike to a guy who made him an offer he couldn’t refuse, there was the only one thing left to do. Build a new bike, better than the one before. The whole thing started as he came across a original Moto Martin frame somewhere in Germany, and he decided to use it with Suzuki GSX engine. He knew he was onto something good… As you would might expect, the frame wasn’t right from the start, as the components didn’t fit well. The rear frame was redesigned and a Ducati single sided swing arm has been added. The engine was completely new 1230cc GSX 1135 Suzuki motor. Now get the numbers: 190kg, 155HP….sweet. Wolfgang and his crew took 10 months to custom make pretty much everything on this modern Cafe Racer. The name of the bike is Scoop (you can see it on a gas tank) taking inspiration from old American muscle cars. Scoop is only for show, as it hides the gas cap beneath it. All the electricals are under the tank creating a really clean look.
