DOUGIE LAMPKIN REPLICA

This new Limited Edition 2020 Vertigo-Dougie Lampkin Replica has been limited to a production run of only 75 machines, making it a highly exclusive and much sought-after model.

Now in its third successful year, it is the direct evolution of its already hugely successful previous editions and has been extensively revised, both internally and externally, in the constant pursuit of perfection. It benefits from a full year of technical advances and developments after working closely with feedback from Dougie Lampkin’s vast wealth of knowledge and experience.

This input has delivered four straight victories at the SSDT 2015–2018 as well as other prestigious events such as the double wins at the 2017 and 2018 Scott Trial. Available in 250cc, 280cc and 300cc engine sizes this new DL Replica model gives you an insight into the continued success of Vertigo as a motorcycle manufacturer.

Dougie Lampkin: “Cut me in half, and yes, it will say Vertigo, as I have become such a part of the Spanish family who produces the machines. When the opportunity arose, at such an important time in my career, to start on the Vertigo project from the drawing board through to manufacturing, I embraced it with both hands. To see them now in production and winning on them is something rather special. This new evolution of the DL Replica is a true replica model in every sense, as all of my personal preferences in both the frame and suspension geometry are included. The power delivery and map settings have been incorporated into this latest model after extensive testing for the ideal settings to suit my two favourite events, the Scottish Six Days and Scott Trials. I want a machine I enjoy riding, not one that fights me!

“A consistent engine performance was a key factor to work with and the addition of the intercooler, which helps keep the engine at its optimum operating temperature, has worked very well. The throttle body is my own personal ‘DL’ model choice. It gives an incredibly smooth and precise throttle response and, along with

the addition of the 366g flywheel weight, ensures an exceptionally smooth and controllable power output. I can feel for the power delivery and grip factor so well with this setup. Along with the completely redesigned air filter-box and titanium exhaust, it all helps to greatly increase a smooth, powerful engine performance. Gear choice is essential in the SSDT hazards, and the engine is happy to perform in any of the trials-dedicated four gears. In the other two higher ones it’s quite happy on both the open moorland and road riding.

“New TECH factory-specification front suspension, in conjunction with the multi-adjustable three-way Reiger rear shock, has provided an extremely smooth and responsive feedback to the rider while also allowing them to further finetune their suspension setup depending on the rider’s individual riding style.

“An easily accessible mapping switch also allows the rider to perfect their riding by changing the engine performance. The changes between the R2 and DL Replica give you two very different machines in both the power delivery and suspension, and both have had input from myself and the Vertigo TrialGP riders. Along with the other latest Vertigo machines, the DL Replica is very much modelled around events that require very low maintenance and high reliability.

“At Vertigo we are constantly sourcing products to find the ones which will deliver this. We want the consumer to enjoy the Vertigo experience; that, as always, is the ultimate goal.”.
