Jason Wonder's XR1200

Jason started by taking off the fuel injection system: ‘We wanted a hot rod with zero dead spots. So we went with an XR Carb conversion, and ditched the 25 lb harness and throttle bodies.’ The new ignition system is fully programmable, and gives the motor a serious jolt of extra power (and responsiveness). The bodywork is custom fabricated, including the tank, tail and seat unit: it’s not a million miles away from the lines of the stock bike, but it looks a million times better. The sinuous exhaust system has been remodeled to terminate in a Yoshimura muffler, and the top tree is also custom-made. Clip-ons and race controls add the finishing touch.
