Sooner or later, it was bound to happen anyway.
For once, Pepo Rosell and Reyes Ramon of renowned aftermarket company Radical Ducati put their love for the Italian desmo machines aside and turned their attention to a Japanese motorcycle from the 80s, and the result is the awesome bike you can admire in these pictures.

The model is called DirtRad and is based on a pretty famous motorcycle, a 1989 Yamaha XT 600.

The original frame was cut, modified and connected to the fork of a FZR600, the engine was re-built with new ported heads and the exhaust system is made of Wolfman ‘2-in-1′ connecting pipes and terminates with a captivating Spark GP megaphone.
The DirtRAD comes with 18″ wheels with aluminum Akront rims and stainless steal spoke fitted with Pirelli Skorpion tyres, whereas the braking system was lifted from a Ducati S4RS.

The fuel tank comes from 1970’s Ducati 250, while the saddle is borrowed from a Pursang Bultaco.
This DirtRAD by Radical Ducati uses in-house hand-built mudguards, the front one made in aluminum and the rear one in carbon fibre.
Other remarkable features of the model include Hagoon rear shock, Rizoma handlebar, Puch head light and an aluminum road racing chain guard taken from a Ducati 916.

The Madrid-based company will soon show off its DirtRAD at the second edition of the “Metamorfosis Masiva“, a style contest open to single cylinder bikes only.
