Last weekend, the center of the custom universe was the bustling, sweltering city of Jogjakarta, on the island of Java. It?s the Indonesian home of Kustomfest, which is now firmly established as one of the world?s top custom shows.
Kustomfest has proved that Indonesian builders have world-class skills. And this this, our eyes were caught by this lithe and elegant Royal Enfield Continental GT 650?from Andika Pratama of Krom Works.

Andika has inherited his bike building skills from his father, and plies his trade in South Jakarta. That?s a nine-hour drive from Kustomfest, but we?re glad he made the trip.
The show theme this year was ‘Back to The Roots,’ so Andika has crafted a classic café racer with a mix of 1960s and modern-day styling cues. He?s called the GT 650 ?The 30??a reference to his own age and a marker for his personal journey over the years in the workshop.
Honda dominates the booming Indonesian motorcycle market, so it?s rare for a builder to work on a Royal Enfield?especially one of the new twins. Not surprisingly, Andika is smitten with the GT 650.
?From my perspective, the engine is one of the most special parts,? he says. ?The sound and ?beat? are extremely nice? and with 650cc, it?s very comfortable to ride, whether in the city or long-distance.?

The new bodywork is visually much lighter than stock, highlighting the engine, which has been given a coat of glossy black powder powder to match the frame.
