Honda Dominator "Bakula" by Earth Motocycles

The Slovakian shop Earth Motocycles customized a 1991 Honda NX650 Dominator name The "Bakula" and delivered an ultra-clean Street Scrambler.

The whole engine, brakes, wheels, etc... were completely rebuilt.

The subframe was shortened, using round bar that flows off the square centre posts. The ends are left open to house the recessed taillights which are 3 in 1, so it has a brake light, rear light, and indicators and then the whole chassis coated in black powder. 

The brown real leather custom-made seat was made inhouse with black stitching and custom rolls, which flows perfectly over the new subframe and even form the tail section. A simple headlight finishes out the look, with its double-stacked lights giving a nice touch.

The bike’s electronics system has also been completely revised, and now features all-new wiring and an Aliant LiFePo4 9Ah battery.

The dual-exhaust port single at the heart of the build has also been treated to an equally-involved refresh that included a full rebuild, new filtration, and a bespoke exhaust system with sandblasted and black ceramic-coated headers feeding into a satin-finished stainless steel muffler.

The bike's cockpit has also received a lower and wider set of handlebars fitted with rubber Domino grips, top-shelf Motone switchgear buttons, and a circular Daytona speedometer with integrated warning lights.  The fuel tank was professionally coated tank using a 2k technology.

The "Bakula" has a weight of 139 kg / 307 lbs without fuel.
