Honda Hornet SP my 2000

MBG designed and modelled a new lightweight aluminium bodywork inspired by the lines that characterise the CB Four 750 1969.

This involved the construction of the tank, the front and rear protection panels, the wrap-around dome with new headlight, the mudguards and the gel saddle in hand-sewn cognac leather.

The preparation was not only aesthetic but also involved the chassis; the new frame with a lowered rear to accommodate the saddle allowing 1.5 seats in the Milanese style, and integrating a new number plate holder and new directional and rear lights.

The construction of a new battery and fuse compartment sits alongside the assembly of trombone valves that replace the original filter.

The original wheel rims were substituted by rounded spokes with floating daisy discs and the new stainless steel exhaust with ceramic bands replaces the original.

The graphics in Honda Restomod style use threads of liquid copper; a finishing that also characterises many of the mounted parts.
