GRASSHOPER / YAMAHA XSR 700
PLAYFUL, SPORTY AND CLASSIC.
2019 – We build the official German Yard Built a Yamaha XSR700 called 'Grasshopper' built for the #BackToTheDirt project and presented at The Reunion 2019, Monza.
Yamaha's Yard Built projects have led the way in the revival of the custom motorcycle world and we're proud to be one of the builder.
OFF THE BRIEF
When Yamaha asked us to customize an XSR700 for the Yard Built program, the brief was “Playful, sporty and classic.”
We took our inspiration from modern motocross and flat track bikes with new touches of Acryl and complete new look for the bike. After we sent a concept sketch to Yamaha Germany, they were immediately hooked on the design direction.
SHAPING THE PANELS WAS NO JOKE
