KustomGaras The Journal x Yoppy Yohanes
Fueled by the enthusiasm for the custom motorcycle scene and the inspiration from Instagram, Yoppy decided to fulfill his passion.
Around the end of last year, I decided to create my first custom motorcycle with various ideas in my head. To make it happen, I contacted my friend Batakastem and after a few months, we made this motorcycle a reality.
Honda Tiger Caferacer Covid-19
Concept & Specifications:- Base: Honda Tiger 1999
- Minimalist and all black, inspired by the Rolling Stones song - Paint it Black
- Tank, upper triangle, mudguard, frame, seat are all handmade custom. The design of the tank cap is made as flat as possible.
Speedometer integrated with lights. Bluetooth device on the upper triangle to receive notifications for time, date, weather, messages, and calls.
We started this project in November when Covid started to hit, and it was finished in March 2020 when Corona entered Indonesia. For this reason, we decided to dedicate this motorcycle to the victims of Covid19 in Indonesia.
The writing CovID-19 on the side cover, with the word ID in red as a symbol of our country - Indonesia
The plus sign that is usually red as a symbol of the Red Cross, we changed it to black, attached to the side battery cover and also the front light to replace the commonly used cross sign.

We also made a short video using this motorcycle to raise awareness about masks and hand sanitizer.
