The Ecureuil 1000 ERS was a unique motorcycle which competed in the Paris-Dakar Rally between 1987 and 1989 as an initiative by journalist and Dakar rider Pierre-Marie Poli, designed by Joël Guilet. The Ecureuil 1000 ERS was unique by way of its construction, boasting a modular setup consisting of three main elements which could be quickly disassembled, where removing the engine and transmission only took six minutes. These modular elements were the hull, the engine-transmission-rear wheel assembly and front suspension.
