Hello, hi, have we met? If we haven't, then an important thing you should know about me is that I really find the look of bare brushed aluminum (or aluminium, for my Commonwealth friends) appealing. Like, truly. Just slap some clear coat on it and call it a day, please. I really want to see that grain, and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in that assessment.
Once you know that fact, it's probably a little easier to understand why I absolutely adore the look of this custom Honda GB350S. It's called "Silver Bullet, and it was done up by Farnham Honda in the UK for this year's Honda Customs Contest. Isn't it just so, so pretty?
There's a Yoshimura pipe on it, too. Yes, it's a bitty little single-cylinder, but as I'm sure you're well aware by now, some singles sound better than others. I, for one, would love to hear how this one sounds. Call me a sucker for all that gorgeous aluminum, but I'm willing to bet it sounds pretty great!
Of course, since it was created for the 2025 Honda Custom Contest held at the annual Wheels and Waves celebration in Biarritz, France, it's not the only bike in the game. A total of 11 GB350S customs were crafted by Honda shops across Europe, and what's pretty fascinating is that everyone took this neo-classic bike in a bunch of different directions.
I'll be honest, the Honda MBX350 by Servi Honda Malaga is a pretty close second for me, in terms of styling. But there are a lot of different options to suit a lot of different tastes here, so you should probably check all of them out and see which one speaks to you.
Voting is now open on Honda's dedicated website for the Custom Contest, and you can vote for your favorites until Sunday, August 31, 2025.
