Raw Intent
Stripped back and raw – that was the brief. Nailed it. Nothing screams old-school louder than a bare metal finish. Combine it with a hardtail conversion, and you’ve got yourself a true modern classic throwback.
This is the 3rd hardtailed Street 500 we’ve built, with more to come (watch this space). Now that QLD (and most other states) require new riders hold their Restricted licence for 2 years, we’re seeing more people wanting to spend more on their LAMS bikes. If you’re gonna have to ride it that long, might as well make it look cool – and we all know the stock Street 500’s look far from cool…
