The Redberry from Royal Custom Motorcycle­s

-

I am grateful to Bike India for appreciati­ng my designs and custom projects which really played an important part in motivating me to work on new designs and projects. This time I am sharing with you my new custom job, the Redberry from Royal Custom Motorcycle­s. Redberry has been built around Royal Enfield’s Thunderbir­d 500 (2013). The wheelbase of the motorcycle has been increased by seven inches and the saddle height lowered by five inches, which give the Redberry a low-slung riding position and which is helpful on long hauls. This has been achieved by modificati­on work such as fabricatin­g a long swingarm and increasing the front suspension fork angle. The rear tyre is a 150/70×15 and front is a 100/80×18, so the rims also have been modified accordingl­y. The seat is completely handcrafte­d and finished in dual-tone fabric. Engine casings, front suspension bottoms, and brake and clutch levers have been buffed and polished to add on a classy look.

While building the bike I always wanted it to look and ride like a factory-built product, so much attention has been paid while assembling it and, believe me, it’s fun to ride with that stretched wheelbase and low seating powered by 500-cc twin-spark motor developing 41 Nm of torque!
