From super bike to super moto, 'The Scrappier' has held on to its super aspirations and gone off the rails and left normal conventions in the scrap bin. Starting as a full fairing‚ KTM RC8 with a 1150cc V-twin packing 151hp, it has turned into a scrappy delinquent who shows up to bare-knuckle fights in a gentleman's tuxedo. The poison apple paint is a masterful work starting with a white pearl base coat and adding a layer of bright candy red, and finally a black candy top coat.
The resulting presentation is stupefying, appearing nearly pitch-black in low light with metallic deep reds and purples shining thru the highlights in full sunlight, showcasing the curves and angles of Woolie's handiwork. One of the special features lending to bike's unique silhouette is the seat design, built for the purpose of sliding up on the tank while doing crispy maneuvers on the track.
Woolie has created a knockout with this one, dancing the line between black-tie etiquette and dangerously fun agility.

On the edge of Harajuku, a bold new sign has risen - The Residence of Impermanence - in Harajuku, Tokyo, is back. Art, surfboards, motorcycles, apparel, café, music - a place where all kinds of enthusiasms collide. Step inside to the Deus Café - a breezy open ceiling space, serving all-day breakfast and the perfect energy for every moment. We're not ones to argue with that. Climb the spiral staircase to surfboards quietly lined against a softly lit backdrop.
Shaped exclusively for the Residence by Takuya “Tappy” Yoshikawa, Tetsuya Ogawa, and Jared Mell, each board is one of a kind. Sofas once beloved at the former Harajuku store — crafted by TRUCK Furniture and Stephen Kenn — have been reupholstered and brought to life for their next chapter. They’ll take on new character with time — just like this place. We invite you to settle in and enjoy the flow.
Same name. New form. The spirit remains, just slightly rearranged. Come in, stay awhile. Find us at 2-32-5 Jingumae, Shibuya-Ku, BPR Square Jingumae 1-1F & 2F Tokyo.
In Benzin Veritas!
