Time for an update on our awesome new project in collaboration with the legendary Herald Motorcycles where we’re taking to the tools and creating a very special VC X Herald custom 125 Scrambler that you can win when we raffle the final bike off later this year!
As promised this little ripper is going to be a project where you get your say on how the bike turns out so we opened up our voting via our insta stories recently and here’s what’s been going down since!
VOTE 1 - THE BARS SET UP
We threw it out there to you guys whether to go for brushed silver bars or to switch them up for matte black and (drum roll please) you went for some seriously swish looking matte black bars!
VOTE 2 - THE EXHAUST SYSTEM
Next up we have the exhaust and you guys really love BLACK as you went for a matte black exhaust so we’ll be switching this out in the coming weeks.
So, now that we can sense a bit of a theme running here (all black errrrrthing! ) we’re starting to plan the paintwork colours and designs and they too will be going up for vote very soon. Make sure you keep your eye on our instagram and stories to be the first to know what we’ve got planned!
NEW PARTS PARTS PARTS!
We’ve been busy stripping the front end of the bike and, deciding to keep with the black theme, we’ve got our hands on some seriously beaut parts to complete those black bars! There is also a bit of a mini theme going on where we’re downsizing a lot of the stock parts for some sick lil’ custom parts we’ve had our eye on for aaaaaages! Just check out the comparisons on size with the OG parts below!
To stay up to date with what we’ve been wrenching on and also for some useful tips along the way for if you’re planning your own custom bike check out the @vc_london stories VC X HERALD highlights for an in depth step by step of the project!
