Ellaspede create custom motorcycles, apparel and accessories from their base at West End in Brisbane, Australia. The latest creation to roll out of their workshop is this adventure-ready Yamaha XT660R, a build that can be used as a daily city commuter, but capable of crossing swathes of bush at the weekend. The end result is an aggressive, faceted aesthetic with a bold color-scheme, the custom bodywork includes a custom aluminum fuel tank, side panels, radiator shroud, headlight shrouds, belly pan bash plate, rear side panels, license plate mount and swing-arm panels. It was also fitted with off-road luggage, side fuel and water tanks, and a USB power socket for charging a phone and sat/nav equipment when the rider´s far out and about.
