Custom bike die-hards have had plenty to see and do in Australia lately, with respected custom shop Deus Ex Machina Motorcycles holding its "Boundless Enthusiasm Bike Build-Off" in Sydney in early December.
With dozens of amateur bike builders showing their wares, from bobbers to café racers, judges of the build-off were tasked with finding the motorcycles that best represented the maxim "Making the most with the least."
The winner of the competition was Nick Eterovic, with his customised 1979 Honda CB250T called Much Much Go (pictured) and he also took out the People's Choice award at the event.
Working with a limited budget, Nick dropped the ride height by modifying the suspension and then reduced the length of the frame at the rear, and together with a reshaped fuel tank and seat section, not to mention the nicely presented exhaust pipes, the design is eye-catching.
The bike was donated by a friend, and Nick says he spent just $735 on Much Much Go, which included things like new carbies, clutch lever, battery and exhaust piping. For his hard work, he is now recognised by the larger Australia custom community and also walked away with a full toolset from Snap-On.
