We’re going from the sublime to the ridiculous this week, kicking off with a stunning Triton from Italy. We’ve also got a new XR1 from Bottpower, a $60,000 electric bike from the company formerly known as Confederate, and a long-lost Vyrus … all 50cc of it.

Bott XR1 ‘White Carbon’ We’ve been enamored with the Spanish outfit Bottpower since their early days. The company designs and manufactures kits to radically transform Buell motorcycles. So it’s always exciting to see their parts being put to good use.
Bottpower built this ‘Bott’ to order, using a Buell Ulysses and their XR1 kit. The kit includes a new frame backbone, which the carbon fiber body parts attach to. This particular XR1 build features a few customer-specific considerations too.
For starters, Bottpower trimmed the tail section number boards down, then finished the pieces in a mix of carbon fiber and white. There’s a set of Buell 1125 forks up front, and an Öhlins TTX shock out back. The OEM wheels and brakes are still in play.
Bottpower also installed a Torque Hammer silencer, a Motogadget dash, and Rizoma turn signals. The triple clamp’s a Bottpower kit part, and the handlebars are from Easton. It’s a cracking reworking of the awkward ‘adventure’ Buell, and we sure hope the new owner plans to ride it in anger. [More]
