Bulleteer Customs has morphed a Royal Enfield into a
tech-laden custom motorcycle called ‘Sukarno’. The custom house built the bike
for Kannada actor, Rakshit Shetty. The base bike appears to be a Royal Enfield
Thunderbird 500, but the bike has been heavily modified. The front end comes
with upside down fork with gold anodised finish.
They have replaced the stock swingarm with a custom
unit that has allowed them to install a monoshock at the rear. It neatly hides
under the seat too. The custom fenders and the tank have a red paint job with
black stripes. The single seat gives the bike a Bobber-like appeal, and the LED
tail light is integrated to the seat. The beach bars and the forward-set
footpegs result in a laid-back riding stance.
The modification house has replaced the side panels
with custom ones bearing the ‘Bulleteer Customs’ logo. The powertrain gets
black treatment, with a heat-wrapped, scrambler-like exhaust. Apart from the
colour, the engine appears to be stock. Both the front and rear alloy wheels
come with meatier rubber, and the instrumentation is aftermarket as well.
The rear uses Pirelli Angel GT tyres, which is
likely to be a 160-section unit. The handlebars get bar-end indicator, which
offers a fine balance between form and functionality. They have upgraded the
brakes too, with petal disc and Bybre radial calliper up front; and a disc at
the rear.
