Deus and La Manufacture F converted a Yamaha XSR900 into an ice racer. Built for ice racing at Circuit Andorra, sitting at 2,400 meters altitude, it's fitted with studded tires and a skid plate.
Painting the world's highest-altitude circuit in white, hot pink, and 90s neon is such a Deus move, and I love it. Stripping away all practicality on the ice and committing purely to traction — that decisiveness carries the builder's aesthetic in full. An XSR900, stripped bare with a race-delete, roaring in colors that basically flip off the grey sky. That whole vibe is just amazing, isn't it?

What's actually different about ice racing compared to a normal motorcycle race?
It's a race on frozen surfaces with spiked tires, the whole concept of grip is totally different from a normal road race, a unique world of its own.
Bugs me that the article doesn't list the specific modified parts or how the weight changed.
Even within ice racing, this bike has a different vibe from Russian or Nordic ice racers.
Just bolting on spike tires, curious how far it can actually go on ice, would love to see real race footage.
Deus's project bikes like this always have such a unique take, never gets old watching them.
An ice race at 2400m elevation, hats off to the sense of taste it takes to mod an XSR900 this far.
Exactly that, the gap between how brutal the race is and how beautiful the scenery is, that contrast is part of the appeal.
