Suzuki Freewind Scrambler

Martin Schuurmans is a product designer based in Eindhoven who started out as a furniture designer and along the way shifted his focuses to his passion for motorcycles. After 2 years of building and design, he finished this sharp-looking Suzuki XF650 scrambler. The idea was to build a bike that is strong and reliable enough to go on long road trips, fast enough to cruise on the highway, light enough to handle nimble offroad, and reliable enough to go on long distance trips without much hassle. All this, with looks of a tough and traditional looking scrambler but with a modern twist. The choice was a 2001 Suzuki XF650 Freewind, the perfect "all-rounder". The build was given a complete engine overhaul, a new subframe, seat, fenders and battery box, and modified a Honda CB350 tank to fit. Also added were new stainless steel exhaust headers, a SuperTrapp muffler, and a custom oil cooling system. The whole thing was covered in a gorgeous paint job that was inspired by classic Suzuki dirt bikes from the 80s.
