Custom Honda NV400 Scrambler V-Twin by Gondezh Custom Cycle

Dana Prasetya of East Java’s Gondezh Custom Cycle has transformed a 1997 Honda NV400—a small-displacement V-twin typically destined for the bobber or chopper scene—into a “Hooligan” street tracker/scrambler hybrid.

Inspired by the aggressive aesthetic of modified Harley-Davidson Sportsters, Dana aimed to prove that Honda’s liquid-cooled 400cc V-twin could serve as a lightweight, nimble alternative to a heavy “Hog.”

Custom Triumph Scrambler 1200 by Crooked Motorcycles

Crooked Motorcycles, based in Southern Germany, has developed a specialized “MotoKit” for the Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE, aiming to enhance the bike’s off-road and travel capabilities. Drawing inspiration from classic Dakar Rally bikes, the “Alps Edition” features a fiberglass front mask that integrates the speedometer, a high-mounted front fender to deflect dirt, and a unique seat system that allows owners to swap between a solo saddle with a luggage rack and a two-up seat in just minutes.

This modular approach provides a custom look and improved functionality without requiring permanent modifications, appealing to riders who want a unique aesthetic while maintaining the Triumph’s impressive 89-bhp performance and long-travel suspension.

Custom Honda XR650L Scrambler by Parr Motorcycles

Spencer Parr of Parr Motorcycles from my own neck of the woods in Indiana transformed a 2024 Honda XR650L, a durable dual-sport that has been in production for over 30 years, into the stunning “Sunrise Scrambler,” designed to look as if it rolled off the Honda assembly line in the 1970s.

The bike also received brushed-aluminum fenders mounted with stainless-steel brackets and a reupholstered two-up seat.

Custom Yamaha XT500 by Purpose Built Moto

The Yamaha XT500 restomod, built by Purpose Built Moto (PBM) and affectionately called the “VMX Scrambler,” is a tribute that blends the iconic dual-sport’s classic charm with aggressive vintage motocross and scrambler styling and modern reliability.

The aesthetic maintains the XT500’s DNA but features PBM’s signature style, including a modified factory fuel tank, custom aluminum bodywork, and a distinctive yellow and black ‘speed block’ paint scheme inspired by the 1976 Yamaha YZ400.

Custom Royal Enfield Bear 650 by K-Speed

This is the Royal Enfield Bear 650, transformed into the “Black Bear” by the undisputed master of monochrome, Tanadit Sarawek (or simply Eak) of K-Speed in Bangkok. The K-Speed workshop operates under a philosophy where black paint and matte finishes dominate, aiming to strip a factory machine of its innocence and infuse it with a sharper, darker identity.

The goal for the new custom Royal Enfield Bear was to leverage its existing scrambler platform to create a powerful back street brawler, focusing entirely on a clean silhouette and aggressive stance.

Custom Kawasaki 250TR by Heiwa Motorcycle

This is a custom Kawasaki 250TR, a scrambler forged by the quiet and precise hands of Kengo Kimura at Heiwa Motorcycle in Hiroshima, Japan. Kimura-san’s philosophy is about distillation, about creating a machine where every single component has a purpose, a reason for being there.

The 250TR, a simple, air-cooled single-cylinder from the early 2000s, was the perfect starting point for this custom, which has been christened “250TR No. 018.”

Luiscar, a man of patience and purpose, opted for the 900 over the bigger 1200, knowing full well he wanted some coin left over for a proper transformation. He admired its grit, its style, and its readiness for both the asphalt ribbons and the dusty trails.
