Fancy jumping some barbed wire fences? Well maybe not but this crossbreed has that extra edge of McQueen cool.
Hilts is a new edition to the Mutt family for Summer 2018. Rolling on the same skeleton as our popular Mongrel, Hilts is the brother of the Sabbath, like that other Brummie brother Thomas Shelby - smart, understated and pretty damn cool with a touch of underlying aggression.
Cooler King
Individually painted, the Hilts rocks a deep gloss Grey finish on the tank, side panels and mudguard, accented with a subtle Mutt Monogram on the tank and our custom script on the side panels. Each antiqued Brown seat is hand stitched and formed to our specification by upholstery experts evoking the interiors of luxury vintage cars. High rise cross braced bars push the rider up into that tracker position so ideal for bashing city traffic and hooning around the lanes. Fat deep tread nobbly tyres sit on fully blacked out 18” wheels, hand finished aluminium mudguards have been shortened and colour matched to the tank and side panels.
City Smasher / Country Cruiser
High rise cross braced bars and diamond pattern black grips sit the rider in an upright position perfect for jamming this machine through inner city traffic or hammering around country lanes. The halogen headlamp with yellow tinted lens is protected by a powder coated grill and small aluminium LED indicators complete the understated look. Satin black custom shock sit on a shortened twin shock frame which houses our bullet proof 4-stroke engine, now with fuel injection for that extra bit of performance and the matt black stainless exhaust has that unmistakable growl you won’t find on any other 250.
New Features
All new Mutt’s have few little subtle upgrades that you may not notice at first but take a closer look and you'll see some nifty little touches you won't see on other bikes. First off, we have new LED indicators hewn from a solid block of aluminium by the process of CNC and mounted on a machined stainless steel arm. We’ve also now got machined aluminium headlight brackets too, that set up makes for a pretty tidy front end.
As always with Mutt Motorcycles we use the skills we learned building one off custom motorcycles and machined aluminium is one of those cool processes that gives a motorcycle a true custom look. Machined fork caps and head stem nut, once again coated in a beautiful anodised finish, combined with the new speedometer surround this provides a beautifully finished view when glancing down at your speed.
One of our favourite new touches requires a bit more scrutiny, kneel down and take a look at the motor, we have a new CNC oil filter cap but look a little closer and you'll see some new machined valve covers on top of the engine reminiscent of 60's and 70's Brit bikes. That’s a little detail not everyone sees straight away but we like it. Finally, we get to the chunky little posterior of a Mutt and you'll see four beautifully machine CNC nuts holding the rear shocks on.
