The race bike of Thompson Race Team, this Super Single won the 2012 Formula Singles Championship (and placed 2nd in 250 Superbike), then placed 2nd in both championships in 2013. The bike has been lowsided twice on the right side and still shows some cosmetic damage, but it would be a great little racer – 45 horsepower and 240 pounds? Yes, please.
Based on a YZ450, this bike has a rebuilt engine with two AFM race weekends on it with the front end from a Yamaha R6. Other goodies include an Ohlins rear shock, Graves oil recycle/fuel catch/ignition module, GPX datalogger, Wave rotor with Galfer pads, and NLA bodywork from Roland Sands.
Find this Super Single for sale here on the Thompson Race Team site for $9,000. Or note that the bike is available here on Bay Area Riders Forum (but possibly with some parts removed?) for $8,000/$7,250 if you’re a BARF member/just $5,250 if you want just the bike, data logger, rear stand, starter, and a set of tires. Phew.
