Overview

### Introducing the 2013 Bourget Scorpion RT: A Custom Cruiser Like No Other Step into the world of bespoke motorcycle craftsmanship with the 2013 Bourget Scorpion RT, a striking custom-cruiser that stands out in a crowded marketplace. Designed and built by Bourget's Bike Works (BBW), this machine is not just a motorcycle; it's a statement. With its unique reverse trike design, the Scorpion RT offers an exhilarating ride that caters to both motorcycle aficionados and those seeking a fresh twist on traditional two-wheeled experiences. This model combines the artistry of custom design with the thrill of powerful performance, making it a must-have for enthusiasts who appreciate both style and substance. ### Engine Performance and Riding Characteristics At the heart of the Scorpion RT lies a commanding 1917.40 ccm (117.00 cubic inches) V2, four-stroke engine, which delivers a thrilling blend of power and torque. This robust engine is paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox that allows riders to seamlessly shift through gears, whether cruising down the highway or navigating city streets. The Primo Brute IV 3” open belt drive clutch offers exceptional responsiveness, ensuring that every twist of the throttle translates into exhilarating acceleration. The rigid rear suspension might seem less forgiving at first glance, but it provides a planted feel that enhances cornering stability, making this custom cruiser a pleasure to ride in all conditions. ### Key Features and Technology The Scorpion RT is built on a 1-1/2” DOM tubular chassis, complemented by an 8” extended swingarm that enhances both aesthetics and stability. The BBW Scorpion RT front suspension, with its rack and pinion steering, ensures precise handling, allowing you to carve through corners with confidence. The single disc brakes at both the front and rear provide ample stopping power, ensuring safety without compromising the sleek design. With a substantial fuel capacity of 26.50 litres (7.00 gallons), long rides are a breeze. Add in the allure of custom color options and a comprehensive 12-month/6,000-mile factory warranty, and it’s clear that the Scorpion RT is designed for riders who demand individuality and reliability. ###
