#256 SR500Custom Report

This is an order from a long-time owner in our local Shiga Prefecture, who has been with us since the establishment of 2%ER. We created a hardtail chopper with a simple and clean silhouette, based on the newly acquired near-normal, top-quality SR500, which is the exact opposite of the SR400 B-class chopper style with suspension that the owner already owns.

We balanced the classic exterior, such as an 18cm long hardtail to match the large owner’s physique, a 15cm extended front fork, a peanut tank and rib fender extended by 2cm front and back. This time, we deliberately made it with a right-side number.

The deep green paint was requested from “P.H.K” in Kyoto.
