MotorSource (2017 ASIA MOTORCYCLE SHOW SPECIAL ISSUE) - page 237

CB750F named “Tokyo’s Legend”. This special, already
awarded the Ferro Design Award by designer Oberdan
Bezzi, allowed Dellunto to bring home the new Honda
CMX500 Rebel that was up for grabs thanks to the
official partnership with Honda.
The specials that will be the stars of the custom
scene in 2017 were presented on the main stage in Hall
1.
During the day as awards were being given to the
best custom bikes, Motor Bike Expo continued to
provide interesting ideas on the subject of specials in
the stands of the motorcycle manufacturers present.
Even though it is now made in India, the Royal
Enfield continental GT still has English rocker DNA. The
simplicity of its classic lines and attractive price make it
an ideal base for customization. So much so that Royal
Enfield Italy have chosen five Italian garages such as
Dino Romano, Motodalcuore, OMT Garage, Café
Bicycles, and Eight Motor Cycle to transform this bike
into the café racer, flat track, scrambler, and roadster
styles.
After a year of intense work, FB Mondial, originally
started in 1948 and 10-time world champion (with 5
riders and 5 builders) between 1949 and ’57, presented
its new models at Motor Bike Expo: the sophisticated
scrambler HPS 125 “Hipster” and the sporty version
SMT Supermoto and SMX for off-road. The decision to
use a single-cylinder 125cc engine and 11kW power-
house makes the brand appealing to young riders who
are looking for a way to stand out with their bikes.
The Motor Bike Expo staff are now hard at work
putting together their 2017 World Tour as they begin
their journey on the road to MBE 2018: 19-21 January,
2018. Being the 10th anniversary edition of this incredi-
ble event, you won’t want to miss a moment of what is
to come!
