KUNG PAW 2001 KYMCO DINK 150 FROM HAJARBROXX
Gifny Richata of Hajarbroxx Motorcycles has just sent me these pictures of their latest creation. Enjoy!
2001 Kymco Dink 150
The concept was to
build a 80's-enduro-looking scooter. The stock bodywork is entirely replaced
with customized one made from iron plates, the frame also had some
modifications on the seat part and the swing arm is also extended to almost
10cm. The engine is in stock condition but the piston is replaced with a taller
one taken from a Honda. And the carburettor is replaced with a 2-stroke Kawasaki
Ninja 150 carb. The wheels are stock but the tires is replaced with fatter ones
which fit without modifying the shocks/swingarm. Brakes and discs are stocks,
with modified cables due to longer wheelbase length and new bodyworks. The
compartment and floor deck are made from alloy to reduce weight, and the
exhaust muffler is custom made from stainless steel tube. Other details like
the indicator panels and switch housing are custom made from dural alloy.

EL DIABLO FROM CHANG JIANG DESIGN
When Thomas Köhle got to Beijing China in 2007 he realized all those vintage looking sidecars driving around the streets which most resembled those WW2 BMWs, but turned out to be Chang Jiangs: "Right at the
beginning of WW2 Hitler and Stalin where allies. As a gift Hitler forwarded the
Beemer-drawings to Stalin which produced URAL, DNEPRS based on the technical
specs. In the 1960ies the Commies forwarded the drawings to China which
produced those sidecars until the 1990ies and used them in their Army.
Chang Jiangs
are available with 24 hp SV flathead engine or 32 hp OHV engine. I usually keep
fingers of the OHV-engines and only recommend the small version. The OHV’s
ain’t that reliable to me" says Thomas
For the future he works on a project with Jim Bryant (he owns a CJ shop
converting the Chinese rides with original Bimmer-engines) with stretched rake,
springer fork (already did one together Jim) and a hardtailed version.
Currently in the works is a sidecar rig for himself and a repro mil-sidecar
for a fellow in France
So far he has already sent bikes to New Zealand France Germany
Parts have already been sent to (16inch wheelset) to Brunei Germany
There are many shops in China
'I claim myself to be the first “real” customizer on the Chinese Chang
Jiangs here in China'
