I made CFRP tank, rear fender, skid plate, seat base, and some other carbon parts by myself. I enjoy riding adventure machines like the BMW R1250GS, Africa Twin, KTM Adventure, and so on. I wanted a dual purpose machine - that’s why I made it. What was the design concept and what influenced the build?.I love XLH883 of that time and I also have another original XLH883, 1996 model - nothing custom other than installation of our seat and bubble bag for model ‘96. It took me three years to reach completion. I started making it because I wanted to enjoy off-road. What’s the make, model, and year of the bike?.It was established in 1976, starting with production of exterior motorcycle equipment made of FRP - now our main products are seats. I became CEO of K&H Co., Ltd in 2013, taking over it from a founding owner. Please tell us a bit about yourself, your history with motorcycles, and your workshop.
