#245 SR500Custom Report
This is a hardtail complete SR ordered from Saga Prefecture, Kyushu. This time, it’s based on the owner’s desired 500 base. We added popular options such as a banana tank, bucket seat, mid-high step kit, and a 21-inch front conversion, and produced it in a simple 60’s style without a sissy bar. The unique gradient paint was requested from “BACON“.
