Suzuki DR 800 Big One – “Big Suzy” #33 by Unik Edition Custom Motorcycles

.  

Based in Lisbon, Portugal, Tiago Gonçalves and Luis Costa founders of Unik Edition Custom Motorcycles, have a passion to create unique customized pieces, where art embeds the quality of materials and aesthetics.

"A customer had this original but rusty 1991 DR 800, and said that he wanted something ‘cool’," explains Tiago. “So I said why not do something more ‘artistic’?”
Tiago referenced a Land Rover built by a local  workshop CoolNVintage as inspiration.

"So we went front there! Vasco Costa, the same artist that painted the land rover, painted this frame. For sure this DR800 it is one of a kind, and even being a pierce of art..." Tiago said.
