True Blood
Honda XL600LM. Soft and light in its lines, aggressive and essential. Black as night, red as blood.

Soft,
but aggressive

- Red leather, Chesterfield style
- Headlight
- Large, vintage
I wanted to create an unconventional bike, softer and lighter in its lines but aggressive and essential at the same time.
Chapter 02 — The handlebar
Playing
with the road
The high flat track style handlebar gives it unique handling, able to play with the road and hold its own off-road.
Chapter 03 — Subframe and seat
A stylistic
wave
The subframe stays clean, creating a shape without cluttering the line, while the handmade seat in aged red leather with Chesterfield style buttons completes a stylistic wave that blends perfectly with a tank as unusual as it is harmonious.
Chapter 04 — The plate holder
Curved
at the rear too
The number plate holder is curved too, housing the rear lights that give continuity to the bike's lines.
Chapter 05 — The headlight
A predator's
soul
The instruments are essential too, leaving room for a large vintage headlight that softens the look of a soul born to prey on the trails less travelled.
Chapter 06 — In the workshop
From bare frame
to bike
From the bare frame on the bench to the finished bike: the red seat, the tank and the large headlight take shape in the workshop.
Black as night and red as the blood that rushes to your head when you ride it.
