MUTT RAZORBACK

Mutt Motorcycles’ new Razorback 125 is a brand new, ground-up development housed in a new monoshock frame, and casts a different shadow to Mutt’s self-proclaimed previous ‘fat’ bikes. Benny Thomas, Mutt co-founder and creator of the bike, explains: “By locating all the electrics, and battery, in a neat little package underneath the seat, and a narrow aluminium swing arm, gives a beautiful wide-open space above the back wheel. As with all Mutt 125s, it’s powered by our super-solid four-stroke little black number, and fed by a Delphi fuel-injection system which, in turn, is fed by that narrow little tank – another new item developed specifically for the Razorback. We designed it, taking influences from the many vintage tanks we have fitted to over the last 20 years.” Everything else is what you would expect on any Mutt: a smooth five-speed transmission; rider-friendly controls; mini custom speedometer; stainless steel fasteners throughout; combined braking with braided hoses; and bags of attitude. The Razorback is a simple yet enthralling bike to ride.

Available in high gloss red and silver, or black, and from £3,495, the Razorback is available from Mutt Motorcycles at www.muttmotorcycles.com
