This time, I will introduce this Honda CM300 produced by K-Speed. To be honest, I have a hard time when I encounter the modification of American motorcycles, because I don’t know where to start, mainly because American motorcycles look very similar but ln fact, some have completely different styles and historical backgrounds. In addition, American-style modifications are usually completely customized. The owner and the modification shop need to communicate for a long time to confirm that they have the same understanding of the modification style of the vehicle. Although sometimes using some finished parts to modify, the unique style pursued by American motorcycles . If you just use the knowledge of ordinary street motorcycles to install Brembo and Ohlins, it is called modification, which may cause American motorcycle enthusiasts to spurn. After all, it is necessary to complete a high degree of American motorcycle, the thought and time to be invested will be several times more than the general street motorcycle modification.
So when I saw this CM300 modified by K-Speed, I thought I should come and study their construction process and the owner's thoughts on why they modified a CM300 into this style. It wasn't until I started researching that I found out that this is the most "entry-level" American modification, with every part made by K-Speed.
Every part is made by K-Speed, and you can even buy the whole exterior kit directly from their website. K-Speed also emphasizes that all parts can be installed directly without modification, which is simply a lazy package for American motorcycle modification.
The whole set is priced at about 11,000 RMB (1650 USD) on the official website, which is perfect for owners who want to be efficient in today's online society.
The kit used for this CM300 is K-Speed's Diablo V2 kit, but while the general Diablo V2 kit is a frosted black color scheme, the one introduced today is a special edition metallic color scheme. The whole motorcycle exudes completeness, if not I would have thought it was a new work launched by a very powerful handmade motorcycle manufacturer.
This kit has a total of 21 items and 24 parts to replace, including terminal mirrors, bullhorns, lowered handlebars, and even the trim cover on the wheel valley is also included in the kit, which means that all the parts needed in the photo are bought at once. The lazy bag of the handmade motorcycle industry is correct.
This kit is suitable for CM300 and CM500. There is no need to modify or cut the platform or the motorcycle body, so it can be installed directly, which is really a blessing for the modification of the American motorcycle store.
When I first learned that the motorcycle was equipped with accessories modified from commercially available kits, I couldn't help but feel that K-Speed's product service was very advanced. It is in line with the little time left after the modern people are constantly compressed by the Internet and social platforms, without the need to use their minds as long as they have basic hands-on skills. The official website can be ordered after the handsome appearance of the body kit installed on the motorcycle. But also let the me began to think if more and more products like this, so that the fun of modification is still the same as before? That need to spend time and energy constantly research, find information, and even to read the manual to learn English and Japanese. When the shop was working on the motorcycle, we discussed the final product with the mechanics about how it should look like, and the mechanics were very personal and patient in listening to the customers' opinions. Enjoy the process of completing the motorcycle little by little, which may take more than a year, but every time I see my motorcycle slowly approaching the ideal look in my mind, is the modification that saves a lot of time, experience, and money in one step attractive, or is the modification experience that costs a disproportionate amount of time, experience and countless tuition fees and detours more memorable?
