Motocrew (Chris Scholtka), a firefighter and builder from Cottbus, Germany, has built an urban tracker based on the 2026 Honda CB750 Hornet. Completed in about seven weeks for the Wheels & Waves contest, the build features carbon wheels and a hand-hammered tail section.
The fact that a firefighter finished this over 7 weeks of late nights is just the best part. A CB750 Hornet locked down with carbon wheels and slicks, a hand-hammered tail, and a 3D-printed headlight. Once you're on the ground you get it - this is a bike carved down in dead earnest for the Wheels and Waves contest. This kind of passion is exactly what motorcycle culture is, I think.

The Wheels & Waves contest has really become a place where builders from around the world go head-to-head for real.
It's exactly because builders from all over the world gather for this contest that you get such distinctive builds.
What actually separates the 'urban tracker' genre from a regular tracker?
It usually refers to a sharp, compact tracker style built with urban usability in mind.
Curious how far they went modifying the base CB750 Hornet — would love more specifics on what actually changed.
For a short-timeline contest build, curious how much actual usability got preserved versus just chasing looks.
Even if it's built for a contest, the fact it's built street-legal from the start means it's not just about looks.
Building carbon wheels and a hand-hammered tail section in just seven weeks takes serious passion and skill.
This level of quality from someone who's a firefighter by day is a finish you'd never guess came from a side gig.
