Finally, a dream which
can come true! |
| |
| Ride the most prestigious
bike race of all time, made by a great professional,
Daniel Mercier, a Master Artisan with 40 years of experience. |
| |
| This bike is a replica of
the Honda 6-cylinder 300 cm3 owned by Mike Hailwood
the greatest driver of all time, (9 times world champion
and 12-times winner of the Tourist Trophy, the hardest
race in the world (with a distance of 61 km for each
round). |
| |
| It is tested in
the race with one of the best pilots at the time, Gerard
Coudray, a Honda pilot and world champion endurance
1984 and 1985. Its manufacturing was based on a Honda
1000 CBX to allow the greatest reliability and greatest
pleasure.
I named this motorcycle JLM as a tribute to my father
Jean-Louis Mercier who passed away on Oct. 10, 2006.
He was the one who taught me my job. |

I can design the bike that
you want, whether a stock bike with the Honda 6 look
or a real racing bike. In both cases, it will be a super
fun bike to drive.

Here’s what you can do
with a CBX, equipped with JLM cycling parts and ridden
by a world champion.
I started initially using the original frame that I
strengthened. I also changed its geometry which provided
the motorbike with a perfect control (according to rally
drivers), even on the most delicate spots of the Magny-Cours
circuit.

| I do not think you can make it as
well, even with a CBX customized for race courses. |
