Led by the skilled Hideya Togashi, Hide Motorcycle of Tokyo, Japan, has been thriving for over two decades. Initially specializing in Harley-Davidson models, Togashi-san has expanded his expertise to include motorcycles from various brands, consistently delivering exceptional custom projects.
One notable creation is the custom Triumph Bonneville Bobber from 2017, transformed into a striking cafe racer with meticulous attention to detail. The Bonneville Bobber, with its liquid-cooled 1,200cc parallel-twin engine, served as the foundation for Togashi’s masterpiece.
After disassembling the bike, Togashi crafted a stunning aluminum fairing from scratch, showcasing his exceptional metalworking skills. Custom bodywork components, including a new fuel tank and tail section, were meticulously designed to enhance the bike’s aesthetic and performance.
Collaborating with Atelier Cherry, Togashi added a bespoke leather saddle to complement the rear anatomy. The cockpit features clip-on handlebars and Tarozzi rearsets, ensuring a true cafe racer experience. Motogadget bar-end turn signals and LED lighting complete the bike’s modern yet classic look.
Equipped with laced 18-inch wheels and Continental ContiSportAttack 2 CR tires, Hide Motorcycle’s custom creation offers both style and performance. The meticulous attention to detail extends to the paint job, expertly executed by Keen Edge, resulting in a fascinating livery that perfectly complements the bike’s design.
