Take a bow Maksim Tolstov and Sergey Zharov of KastoLom Garage, all the way
from Voronezh in southwestern Russia, who scooped 13th place in the 2018 AMD
World Championship Freestyle Class with the eponymously named and
outrageously executed KastoLom.
Starting with a Yamaha XJR 1300 engine and some V-Rod 18" wheels at the front and rear -
pretty much the only items not handcrafted here - from the stainless steel sheet used to
handmake the short, loud pipes and frame held together with more than 500 fasteners,
this is a machine that defies logic yet, somehow, works - figuratively as well as literally.

submitted before the show (something that these days w
show for all to see throughout the event.
The attention to detail and ideas here are just too many t
in person with the bike to appreciate the detail and preci
been conceived and realized - from the clutch that has be
mechanical to the handmade stainless steel seat and dua
just so much going on here, so many styling references, so
whirls. Wow, just wow!
