#218 SR500Custom Report

The SR500, which we finished by adding a mid-high step kit and a one-off sissy bar based on the “№8 STD Hardtail Complete“, is a custom motorcycle.

The base vehicle was brought in by a customer from Hyogo Prefecture who switched from a Shovelhead. The vehicle was previously worked on by another shop and was left in a half-finished state after a wait of three and a half years. Despite the sloppy and dangerous construction that deviated greatly from 2%ER’s safety standards, we rebuilt everything from the frame to the exterior, overhauled the engine which was idling poorly due to unnecessary tuning parts and a large amount of oil rise due to compression, and repaired the electrical system and overhauled the undercarriage, refreshing everything to create a reborn custom SR. We finished it with an orthodox menu from the “2%ER Hardtail Series“.

Despite the rigid frame without rear shocks, we have paid attention to the comfort and ease of riding, such as the mounting position of the handle/step/seat and the cushioning, and you can enjoy the lightness unique to SR and the acceleration of 500cc.
