no, i know, i saw the chalk, but the tread of the tire looks like it should be the other way.....wierd

edit: on top of that.....in BCD's additional pic it shows the left side of the bike and it's a matching dunlop tire with the label on the left side.......the top pic shows the tire with the label on the right side

That drive sprocket is made by Exile Cycles- it's called a Sprotor or something like that. They've been around for some time. I'd be really curious to see how well that radiator works. In theory the rotating tire should pump some air into it but I'd think that's a bit much to ask. The jackshaft system on the supermoto bike is basically a variation of the old Traklever that was developed for motocross bikes. I do dig that Ohlins air pull shock though.....
