![]() ![]() They’ve gone for a dark grey base, but have paid homage to the original bike with blue and yellow highlights all over. The turn signals and speedo are new too, and there’s an off-the-shelf reverse cone muffler out back.ĭiego and Riki score big points for the Yamaha’s color scheme. The guys used a Mayer USA taillight here too, but the headlight’s off an old Honda Four. A set of custom-made side panels cover up the ugly bits hiding under the seat. Its subframe is still original, with a custom leather seat sitting up top. It’s sporting an aftermarket Honda CG125-style tank, with hand-made front and rear mudguards. ![]() North East ditched the Ténéré’s bodywork too, but built it back up slightly differently. Every last part has been cleaned up and refinished, and the classic Honda colors over the white base add a great retro touch. It’s a far cry from the shoddy motorcycle that rolled in. A Virex muffler rounds out the build, mounted onto the stock headers. The finishing kit is robust and clever, like the foldable mirror, an OEM-like taillight from Mayer USA, and basic turn signals that you won’t cry about if you tip over. Up top you’ll find a set of Tommaselli bars, new grips and a new speedo. The side panels are hand-made, while the headlight and shroud are from Acerbis. The frame’s been modified with a new rear loop (and a bunch of rust cleaned up too), and there’s a generously cushioned seat up top, covered in an eco leather.

The engine’s spotless on the outside too now, and breathes through a pod filter. So it needed a lot of restoration work-including a full engine rebuild with a new rod, piston, bearings, and head. The first is a 1989 Honda NX650 Dominator (below) that was destined to be scrapped. The donor bikes arrived at the workshops in very different conditions-but both have been turned into low key, no-frills off-roaders. These two retro Japanese scramblers are the latest to roll out of North East’s workshop in Padua. So when they build out dirt bikes, they’re designed to be functional rather than precious. When I met them at the Italian Wildays festival a few years ago, they spent more time riding the enduro course than they did manning their stand. That’s because brothers Diego and Riccardo ‘Riki’ Coppiello are passionate dirt bikers. We’ve already seen the Italian outfit build cafe racers and street trackers-but they seem to have the most fun when they’re building scramblers.
