Many of the world?s top racing drivers love two wheels just as much as four. We all know Lewis Hamilton rides an MV Agusta, but Vettel, Raikkonen and Webber are bike nuts too. Michael Schumacher briefly raced Fireblades, and Alonso has lapped Motegi on a Honda MotoGP bike.
The Spanish team Campos Racing has taken this cross-pollination a whole step further. Sporting director Adrián Campos is a keen bike builder, and has just finished this beast of a CB750F.

The Honda is the 18th build from Bolt Motor Company, which shares workshop space with the race team. But it’s a little more significant than its predecessors: it?s designed to celebrate young driver Leonardo Pulcini?s championship-winning seasons in EuroFormula and the Spanish F3 series. ?The goal was to create a mix between a cafe racer and a racing motorcycle, while looking as close as possible to the car Leonardo raced with,? Adrián explains.

The base is a 1984 CB750F Super Sport, which means it?s a DOHC air-cooled four. With 77 hp on tap and four 32mm Keihin carbs, the Honda was lauded for its throttle response and acceleration?and was reportedly quicker around a track than a Ducati 900 Desmo SS.
This particular CB750 also had just 650 kilometers (400 miles) on the clock when it rolled into the Valencia workshop. ?It was brand new!? says Adrián. So he?s left the engine internals alone, and just freed up the gas flow with a stunningly curvaceous exhaust system.
