Estonian company Renard was originally founded in 1938 and existed for a short while until its plant in Tallinn was bomb-destroyed in 1944. In 2008, one Estonian businessman with a group of local enthusiasts decided to restore the make. Thus, the modal Renard GT was created. The carbon monocoque of the motorcycle weighs just 11 kg. Kevlar was used as its strengthening material. Its air filter and fuel tank are packaged in one structure.
