To quote Marco, a member of the Deus family and happy owner of the bike: "It's all Marco Belli's fault. Yes it really is. Even though he doesn't know it". Years ago I saw a guy on a bike doing crazy things. I asked who it was and was told "Marco Belli, a flat track champion". Well, I knew what it was though had never really been very interested in it. Years later I took part in a flat track course with, no less, Marco Belli as the instructor. It was a real revelation. At that moment I thought how I'd make a flat track bike for every day use. To roam around Milan - flat track style - as much as possible. · Modified rear subframe, goffrey black paint · SDG Aluminum rear swing arm · Ohlins rear shock absorber · Discacciati CNC wheels plates · 19' Rims and flat track tires · Discacciati brake system · "Flat Bar" handlebar · Custom CNC footpegs · Flushed cylinder head and JE-HC piston · Kehin FCR carburetor · Sc Project exhaust system · Custom wiring with handlebar hidden wires · Fast response throttle · Ufo headlamp Photos: Marco Renieri ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dalle parole di Marco, Deus Family Member e felice proprietario della moto … "Tutta colpa di Marco Belli. Si colpa sua. Anche se lui non lo sa. Anni fa mi è capitato di vedere un ragazzo su una moto fare delle cose pazzesche. Ho chiesto chi fosse e mi hanno detto "Marco Belli, un campione di flat track". Beh sapevo cosa fosse ma non mi ero mai interessato alla cosa. Anni dopo ho partecipato ad un corso di flat track proprio con Marco Belli come istruttore. Una vera e propria rivelazione. In quel momento ho pensato che mi sarei fatto una moto flat track per tutti i giorni. Per gironzolare per Milano in stile flat track per quanto possibile." · Telaio stock modificato nella parte posteriore (verniciato Hard Goffrey Black) · Forcellone in alluminio SDG · Ammortizzatori posteriori Ohlins · Piastre Cnc Discacciati · Forcella con trattamento TIN e preparazione idraulica · Cerchi da 19 con gomme da circuito · Impianto frenante ant Discacciati · Manubrio Flat Bar · Codino VTR · Parafanghi in alluminio · Pedane CNC · Motore con Pistone JE mod HC, Testata flussata (Riverniciato Soft Goffrey ) · Carburatore Kehin FCR · Filtro SF · Scarico Sc Project · Frecce laterali manubrio · Cavi interni e comandi HM · Gas rapido con spegnimento integrato · Impianto elettrico Hand Builte · Mascherina UFO Foto: Marco Renieri
Slidetoberfest is what happens when you throw boards, bikes, and Bali into a blender and forget to put the lid on. Born to celebrate the Deus Temple of Enthusiasm’s opening, at fifteen years of age, it’s an annual excuse for organised mayhem… part pilgrimage, part piss-take, all heart.
Some projects start with a vision, others start with a tear-down. This one began as a brand-new 2024 Triumph Bonneville T100, and quickly became something else entirely.
The crack of dawn on a Saturday saw us chuckin' three of our race bikes into the back of the van. The crew was buzzing. We’d got a call from the Tasik Adventure mob, and when they say they're throwing a party, you just show up, no questions asked.
