#86 SR400Custom Report

“Theme: The Fate of a British Car Stolen by Outlaws in the 60s”

The stolen bike was painted black and customized to look bad so it wouldn’t be noticed. Aging processing was applied to give it the flavor of the time.

Starting with a frame processed in the style of BSA under the seat, various parts, constructions, and fine details were put together with the atmosphere of British car-like things and custom parts of the time.
