The 1300 DRIFTER is built by husband and wife Max and Erica. The two run the operation as an online-only service with builds then shipped free of charge out to clients upon completion, as quoted from Pipeburn. The unique part of their business is their distinctive style. Due to this, a customer was impressed with the Droog Moto DM-014 Z1000 and reached out to them. The client asked if Max and Erica were willing to customise a Suzuki Hayabusa to suit his preferences. The machine is said to be the fastest standard production bike of the 20th century. It is capable of going up to 300km/h. Parts of the bike was stripped off in order to give the bike a new look. The duo removed the stock subframe and a new item that is much shorter than the original was fitted in.

“The gas tank was stripped down to its natural state then re-done in a satin black finish with a slight distressing to enhance the tanks contours,” Max says as quoted from Pipeburn. “A custom swingarm was built to accept the new modified 8.5” rear rim and 240 rear tire. The swing arm also has a mild 2” stretch to it. We needed to beef up the front to flow with the massive 240 rear and went with a customised front rim and a larger front tyre that was squeezed in-between the forks.”

Apart from that, the duo slotted a new rear shock into place while the front forks have all new internals. Not to mention, the new rims have new custom handmade aluminium wheel inserts in black. The bike features a 1300cc four-cylinder, twin cam, engine with tractor like torque. It is capable of producing up to 200hp of power. The ECU also comes with a new tune.
