Early Japanese superbikes seem to get more appealing as the years go by. The Honda CB750 is still going strong, and so is Kawasaki’s KZ series. This classy, understated KZ1000 is the work of London’s Untitled Motorcycles, and it’s owned by Anthony van Someren of the UK website the Bike Shed. “My Ducati became more and more customized and pretty, and less appropriate for my daily five-mile commute into the West End,” Anthony says. “I needed a second bike.

For a background on the duo and to see their extensive archive of builds check here. This 2016 T120 café-brat was built for Sebastien, a London resident wanting a completely blacked-out look. Macco have developed a whole host of components including side panels, mudguards, subframe and leather upholstered saddle which stands out from the crowd with its subtle kick-up at the rear.

Hagon Nitro shocks on the rear should work much better than the slightly soft originals. Click on the mini gallery above to see the detail and get in touch with Jose & Tito to discuss your project.
