This custom Honda X4 is called ‘Bumblebee’ & is inspired by Transformers movie
One must have seen quite a lot of custom motorcycles on Indian roads and in foreign countries. However, this custom-build takes modification to the next level. It is called “Bumblebee" and one can pretty much figure out the reason behind it at the first glance if he or she has seen any of the Transformers movies or knows about the character. The build is based on a Honda X4 1300 cc and the modification is done by RH Customs.
The headlamp is now replaced with a head of the Bumblee character which does have LEDs in it that illuminate. The two antennas can be pulled up or they can sit flush with the head. In fact, the head itself was sourced from the USA because without it the build would not be justified. Then there is the paint job which is the other most important element of the Bumblee character. The motorcycle is finished in rusted yellow and the shop made scuff marks on the paint.
The chassis is also custom made, it is a softail and the rear has been modified to look like a chopper. The motorcycle measures 7 feet in length that runs on alloy wheels that were designed in-house and are made up of aluminium 6061. The front wheel measures 21 inches with a tyre size of 130 mm in size while the rear one measures 18 inches and is using a 300 mm tyre.
