Konyak

 From PowerDrift's Facebook page:

Meet JD Custom’s ‘Konyak’ – a custom Royal Enfield Hunter 350, Built by Jay D. Patel and his team in Gujarat.

Royal Enfield commissioned Jay to build a custom Hunter for their ‘Hunterhood’ tour.

The ‘Konyak’, named after the warrior tribe of Nagaland was built to represent the North East of India.

In order for the bike to survive the untamed terrain of the Seven Sisters, the team transformed the city roadster into a rugged scrambler. It gets:

Raised front forks

twin-shock to monoshock rear suspension conversion

Modified swingarm

Custom subframe

High mounted scrambler exhaust

Significantly increased ground clearance

Apart from mechanical changes, the bike was also designed to look the part. Most notably, the front fairing. The stock round headlamp was ditched for a custom setup, resembling an abstract depiction of a Konyak face.

The bike was then painted in a lush green colour, as a tribute to the forests and tea gardens of the North East.

This bike has been made to represent our country’s deep rooted culture. What do you think of this heritage inspired build?
