Long-time UK-based specialty motorcycle makerClews Competition Machines, better known as CCM, will offer a new street-tracker style 600cc thumper, according to information from the company.

The “Classic Tracker” model will feature CCM’s signature 600cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder ST600 engine. The 600cc displacement is a CCM trademark going back to the start of the company in 1971, when it began making four-stroke motocross competition bikes from the bones of BSA’s dirt racing machines just as the iconic brand was about to go under—and 2-strokes were starting to win races.

Despite that, the CCM bikes were competition winners and have a devoted following to this day. The new Tracker 600cc thumper is fuel-injected, liquid-cooled and thoroughly modern. The Tracker will be available in two trims, with prices starting at £10,695/$13,100 USD for the bike in basic (but nice) blue, or £11,495/$14,000 USD for the black and chrome version. Not cheap, but these are essentially hand-made small-batch motorcycles.

The Classic Tracker model is street legal but hews closely to CCM’s core light-makes-right philosophy, and the bike appears to be light and lean. Dry weight is 145kg/320 pounds, and no performance numbers were specified outside of 58Nm of torque and 120mm of suspension travel front and rear with adjustability. However, power-to-weight was listed as .38hp per kilogram, which maths out to 55 horsepower.

Running gear includes a tig-welded steel tube frame, J.Juan brakes, 19-inch Haan wheels front and rear, Mitas road-legal (in the UK) flat-track style tires, a hydraulic clutch and two color options including a blue bike with gold anodized wheels and a chome scheme with black wheels, black forks and other murdered-out surfaces.

The bike looks sharp, with a solo seat on a racer-style tail section, the gold or black wheel finish, andtwoexhaust headers and pipes—one for each exhaust valve in the single-cylinder head.

CCM’s timing is good; flat track racing is growing in popularity in the U.S., UK and elsewhere. In the custom bike scene, flat trackers are a common aesthetic (oftenbased on Yamaha XS650 P-twins, which are not unlike old BSA 650 twins), and the bikes are huge fun to ride when properly built.

CCM is a boutique manufacturer, but in 2021 they got an infusion of funding from investors Pitalia Capital, allowing them to hire more staff and expand their product line, which are all based on a common platform.
