Paris Tuning Show specials

Some of the best specials in Europe were brought together for the Paris Tuning Show, the biggest of it’s kind in Europe.

MCN this week (March 5) has six-pages dedicated to the show, including amazing bikes like the Hayabusa-powered B-King, the ultimate in minimal R1s, plenty of tweaked Z1000s, and a 238mph ZX12R, amongst many others.

There’s a modified CMS GSX1400 (see picture 1). Built by Cannes Motor Services and featuring Beringer six-pot calipers, chromed wheels, upside-down Ohlins forks and Ohlins twin shocks, Machined billet top and bottom yokes, and chromed engine cases.

For stand-out style, however, it takes a lot to beat the Marco Parent GSX-R1100 (picture 2). It has a bored out, 1340cc 175bhp motor (which goes to 212bhp when the nitrous in engaged). It has Keihin carbs, six-pot Beringer brake calipers, upside-down Kayaba forks, a Honda RC30 single-sided swingarm, a Yoshimura race system, and the one-off bodywork, designed by owner Marco Parent.
