The Honda Hawk GT 650 or known as the NT650 or RC31 is a naked bike with a V-twin engine and a single-sided swing arm a la Ducati.
In addition to the Ducati style, the Hawk GT NT650 is also quite attractive and ideal for a cool custom project.
For example , the Honda Hawk GT NT650 cafe racer style produced by Bil Harmer who originally worked as a cybersecurity professional.
For the change process, Bil started by stripping all parts of the 1989 motorcycle, leaving the frame, swing arm, and engine.
Then the legs are upgraded to a maximum with the use of an upside down front fork for the 2007 Honda CBR600RR with the Cognito Moto top triangle which gives a sturdy impression.
Then the two wheels rely on the original default but for braking, they are upgraded to Brembo products.
Done with the legs, the work continued by giving some minor changes to his 647 cc v-twin engine.
Bil installed a filter pod for the carburetor, a new electrical system from Motogadget, and a new exhaust system with short mufflers.
Moving to the bodywork sector, the subframe has been replaced with a custom product from WWResto which is made of aluminum.
Then above it is attached a classic cafe racer wasp tail accompanied by an elegant single seat upholstery.
Slide forward, there is a tank that seems to still rely on the default Honda Hawk GT 650 but is given a modern tank cap.

Next to the cockpit, Bil made it quite simple but complete with clip-on handlebars, speedometer and Motogadget switches.
Then perfecting it with lights, mirrors, and a handgrip from Rizoma which looks sweet.
Finally, for finishing, the bodies are wrapped in Ocean Shimmer Blue and Matte Black vinyl which looks cool.
As a result, the Honda Hawk GT NT650 is now transformed into a cafe racer that looks scary and charming.
