Cherry’s Company: Drag Queen

Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show is an annual motorsport this week in Japan. This year, the authoritative caste-exhibition is held in the 27th time and there is no doubt that we will see a lot of interesting works from workshops from all over the world.

The first work that attracted my attention is the Drag Queen bike, the next kid of Japanese cousin guru Kaichiroh Kurosu (Kaisiro kurosa) and his studio Cherry's Company. For more than 20 years, Kurosana-san has been working mainly with Harley-Davidson motorcycles. If the name of the glorified Japanese does not tell you anything, then some of his cult works will surely say a lot: just to mention the BMW R1200GS, the Harley-Davidson Street 750 Turbo or the BMW R nineT. This is reported by MotoNews.com.ua.

A distinctive feature of the work of Kaisiru Kuros is the manual treatment of important motorcycle elements. "I am sure that the creation of details with the help of CNC leave the transfer of human person, such details can not fully reflect the entire soul of the creator. - commented Kaishiro Kuros. - That's why once I decided to make as many nodes as possible for my castles manually. It took me many years to learn how to do it. What you see before you is a skill and talent that has been bought and developed for years. " Cast-bike Drag Queen built on the basis of Harley-Davidson Panhead in 1948. As Kaishiro Kurosa told him, he was always indifferent to the old and fastest motorcycles. It is in such motorcycles that he draws inspiration for his work.
