Glow-in-the-dark Honda CB650F wins custom comp

Earlier this year Honda challenged all their UK dealers to build custom versions of the CB650F. As expected, some outstanding bikes were created.

And in the end a glow-in-the-dark Honda CB650F built by P&H Motorcycles took top honours in the custom competition, beating a tribute Marco Simoncelli and Spider-Man-inspired bike.

What looks like a fairly bog standard paint scheme in the day is transformed in the dark, as the lightning bolts glow a b0right green.

The glow-in-the-dark bike finished ahead of the second-placed effort from Padgetts Motorcycles. Padgetts created a race-ready bike, complete with Arrow exhaust system, Brembo brakes and their iconic multi-coloured paint scheme.

Maidstone Honda took third place with their rat rod-inspired CB650F, which is completely bereft of a tail unit.

The team at Maidstone Honda completely changed the front of the bike, too. Replacing the standard headlight with a more traditional round unit.

Fourth place went to the Marco Simoncelli tribute bike from Doble Motorcycles. 

The last finalist in the competition was the eye-catching Spider-Man CB650 built by North West Honda Blackpool. The bike includes a Spider-Man paint scheme, and the headlights are nestled in the mouth of Spider-Man villain Venom.
