Wow.
I will say 165 lbs… probably more but going low for a sick build imo.

Damn that thing looks sick! Hopefully it will all hold together for him. Seems sketchy...

Absolutely insanity, I don't doubt his skills at all, he has been building frames, swing arms for so long. That exhaust is porn!

Air forks?

That exhaust routing is crazy.

Where is the tank?

I think it's the little black plastic tank on the left side right in front of the air filter. Looks to hold maybe a quart or so.

I don't know that much about the KTM ADV bikes, but it looks like the 790 / 890 swingarm.

I think Sherwood makes a Lot of his stuff himself / has it made. So, if it's not a modified KTM part, perhaps he just drew inspiration from those bikes swingarms I mentioned.

The whole bike looks well suited to FMX use - it would be quite the advantage in doing such lunacy , over a modified stocker.

Although I think it's a one off part, the swingarm is clearly Duke inspired.

Insane! But I would be scared to get stab by the carbon fiber bodywork in a crash! Those pointy fender...

I’ve been waiting for a long time for someone to make a purpose built fmx/free ride (Axel type riding) bike…it just makes sense, and seems to have enough unique needs to justify their own model, way stiffer suspension, much smaller tank, way light weight, holds all over the place, etc etc…KTM300FMX?

Do you remember the A Loop bike from back in the day?
