#71 XS650 / TX650Custom Report

This is a vehicle ordered by a long-time owner who left almost everything up to us.

 

Understanding his preferences, we incorporated elements such as bobber, hill climber, board tracker, auto racer, Sunday racer, etc., with the keyword “vintage feel”, and created it in a mechanical and quirky style.

 

At the owner’s request, the manufacturing part is left as it is without finishing and polishing such as scorch marks and welding marks.

 

The overall silhouette is a low-down processed Honda trial bike front fork, 19-inch front wheel, seat rail dropped in the style of a Harley 4-speed frame, short rear shock, and rear 18-inch conversion.
