The CP Project One

.







What can a featherbed, a Tyrannosaurus Rex & Batman have in common?
Since visiting in California the Legend of the Motorcycle International Concours d’Elegance in June 2008, French designers Frank Charriaut and Vincent
Prat had a dream to built their own Motorcycle. There, they met with the Crème of Motorcycling experts & enthusiasts.
As English Motorcycles fans, Charriaut & Prat made the choice of a featherbed frame and a Triumph 750 engine. Of course when you start like this,
the only point you can reach is to build a Triton.
But they did not want to make another Café racer or name-it Triton; they wanted to make something more personal which could match their cultural
backgrounds. That led them to forget all about the British bikes standards and follow their own destiny.
Charriaut & Prat started sketching and quickly found out what should be the final aspect of their bike. A mix of Batman’s motorcycle with a T.Rex
fastback and a overwhelming feeling of Cat Woman’s dreamful body. Inspiration came directly from the Comics Culture
