This cafe tracker style custom 1982 Honda CX500 built for Mateusz Stankiewicz, a Warsaw-based photographer, Eastern Spirit. The original CX was never highly regarded and was nicknamed the “plastic pig” despite being quite reliable. It’s main advantage being that it is a cheap secondhand motorcycle. The frame was redesigned, lifted by 5? since it was quite low, the tank was sandblasted and the front end was lowered for a more aggressive attitude among other smaller modifications and removals.
