The Mantis
Long, slender and hungry the only prey this predator wants is open road and dirt-packed trails. With a taller wheelbase and saddle profile, even a long legged bike lover will sit comfortably without eating their knees and the aesthetic of the comfy seat not only look good but come with a surprise or two underneath. Featured in the Smoked Garage video, “Running out of Dreams”, this creeper has the factory Yamaha Scorpio 225 engine that is smooth out of the start and slings into speed when you open the throttle. Much like its name’s sake, the tone on tone green colors flow nicely, giving this bike a “deceivingly” tame look- but she will pounce!
