Bultaco Pursang, yes definately! By all means build it, especially if it is true to the original concept. Lean, fast, great handling and all business while still being the best looking bike out there. But don't make a geeky designer effort. The drawings you have done, whie interesting make for a silly looking and in at least one version, unraceble bike. KTMalready designs a goofy looking bike plastic wise. Move away from the artsy, "cutting edge" concept and design a more mainstream style(see "YAMAHA or KAWASAKI") and focus on making it a cutting edge racer. Then you will have something I would invest my money in.
We started this Project more then seven years ago. We wanted to reborn a legend from the sixties and seventies: the Pursang. It was a motocross bike well known around the world.
We wanted to know what were we speaking about, to have a deepest knowledge , to know the history we didn´t live, to know the bikes we never had and we restored two original ´75 Pursangs.
We created the frame in computer, made the structure and rigidness analysis and milled the molds to produce the firsts tests in Aluminium.
The prototype has been tested for about 1000 km on the motocross track and performs well.
We are developing as well the Pursang F-track 450i prototype: an evolution of the motocross model for the american DirtTrack/FlatTrack competitions.
Those sketches are really nice, Good project! I hope to see your bikes on a track in the future!
