Yamaha SR400 Cafe Racer by Purpose Built Moto

A super-cool and unique cafe racer worth ogling.

The Yamaha SR400 is a great bike to customize and this custom-built Yamaha SR400 cafe racer by Purpose Built Moto is a perfect demonstration of this.

Dubbed the Silver Surfer by Pipeburn, the bike is a beautiful and sleek demonstration of customization skills by Purpose Moto’s boss Tom Gilroy.

Let’s take a brief look at this unique machine and what makes it special.

Kong Kid Honda Monkey by K-Speed

This Honda Monkey built by K-Speed and named Kong Kid is an absolutely silly and awesome bike.

I love the Honda Monkey. It’s a great little 125cc motorcycle by itself, and it’s also a fantastic platform to build a cool custom.

K-Speed took the Monkey to new heights with this blacked-out beauty, which was recently featured on Pipeburn.

1972 BSA B50MX “Museum Bike”

BSA used to be king of the motorcycling world, and today the brand has a special place in many riders’ hearts. This 1972 BSA B50MX is a perfect example of why.

The motorcycle is a museum-quality example of what made BSA so dominant back in the day.

This particular bike is owned by Justin Corley and is one of many machines in his collection.

Boxer Kawasaki W400 Scrambler by Pap N Mam Modified

Pap N Mam Modified Makes a Killer Bike Here

Sometimes you gotta get weird, especially these days. Well, Pap N Mam Modified got weird in 2018 and crafted an odd boxer motorcycle engine out of two 175cc singles. The Boxer Kawasaki W400 Scrambler you see above is the bike that was created.

This beautiful chrome beauty is a killer motorcycle that stands out and is like nothing else out there.

Honda Dax Chopper by Hogan Jeffs

You’ve never seen anything like the Honda Dax Chopper by Hogan Jeffs.

New Zealand is a magical place. I spent a summer there in my early teens and fell in love with it. There’s weird stuff there, and it comes as no surprise to me that this Honda Dax Chopper by Hogan Jeffs comes from New Zealand.

The weird little chopper is one of the more interesting bikes I’ve seen recently and my hat’s off to him for thinking outside the box.

2012 Kawasaki W800 Custom by Mike Andrews

Mike Andrews goes all-in on all-out simplicity on this Kawasaki W800 custom.

Mike Andrews is a name that’s well-known in certain circles of the custom motorcycle scene. His bikes are wonderful works of craftsmanship.

This build is no different. Mike took a Kawasaki W800 and made it simply beautiful.

Honda NX650 Dominator by Hoxton Moto

Hoxton Moto has created a true masterpiece with the Honda NX650 Dominator.

The Honda NX650 Dominator is a 650 adventure or dual-sport machine that is nearly indestructible.

The bike has become a favorite for some custom builders. When you look at this one from Hoxton Moto, it’s clear why.

1972 Honda Chaly Custom by Callum Blackmore

This job on this Honda Chaly Custom gives me some ideas.

If you didn’t know, I’m a huge fan of small-displacement motorcycles, specifically old and weird ones like this Honda Chaly Custom.

Callum Blackmore is the man behind this build, and my hat is off to him. Bravo, dude.

Harley-Davidson FXR ‘Yamahaha’ by Jonathan Shakesby

No other Harley-Davidson FXR out there like this Yamahaha.

Johnathan “Jonno” Shakesby is a master.

This Harley-Davidson FXR “Yamahaha” looks like what I expect Harley-Davidson would have made if they were really on their game and tried to make an 80s UJM bike.

Schlachtwerk’s Wasabi Kawasaki W800 by Tommy Thoring

One of the coolest Kawasaki W800 models I’ve ever seen with a killer name—Wasabi.

There are a lot of really great Kawasaki W800 motorcycles out there, but this one by Tommy Thoring of Schlachtwerk that’s called Wasabi is probably the coolest one I’ve ever seen.
