A Honda Vario Gen 3 built in Vietnam Style has drawn major attention at Black Motodify 2026 after its estimated build cost was said to approach Rp400 juta. The machine belongs to King Abraham and stands out not only for its appearance, but also for the level of detail applied to the build.
The project shows how Indonesian modification contests still reward bold concepts when the execution is serious. In this case, the Vario 180 cc combines visual impact, technical work, and precise finishing in one package.
Imported parts define the character of the build
The motorcycle was developed by Toms Gank with a clear focus on Vietnam-style modification. Nearly every component installed on the scooter comes from imported products, giving the finished result a distinctly different look from a standard Vario.
The braking system uses MFZ parts, while the suspension relies on TBT components. Several custom titanium parts were also fitted to support the overall concept of the build.
That approach gives the scooter a dense and highly detailed presentation. Each element was selected to match the Vietnam Style identity that guides the entire project.
The engine was taken up to 180 cc
The visual overhaul was matched by major mechanical changes. The engine was upgraded to 180 cc through a 63 mm BRT piston and a Moto1 4-valve head.
An ECU remap was added to make the engine response more aggressive than the stock version. This combination also strengthened the project in the eyes of the judges, because the build was not only about looks but also about serious performance work.
The increase in displacement pushed the project into a more complex level of modification. A build like this requires careful coordination so every component can work together properly.
The storage area was rebuilt from scratch
One of the most demanding parts of the project was the storage area, which had to be rebuilt from scratch. The work was necessary because several aftermarket components required special adjustments to the motorcycle’s structure.
Toms Gank said the project involved many details and kept the team working late into the night. That kind of effort shows the bike was not assembled as a simple add-on project, but developed through multiple technical stages.
The long hours paid off when the finished machine appeared at the contest. The final result made King Abraham’s Vario both visually striking and structurally well executed.
A prestigious trophy at the end
The mix of an extreme concept, imported components, and engine upgrades helped the scooter win the overall title in the Non Professional category. That achievement placed the Vietnam Style Vario among the most talked-about motorcycles at the event.
Its strong reception confirms that national modification contests still value detail and the courage to pursue a distinctive concept. In this case, the large budget, complex workmanship, and consistent final result became the key factors behind the attention it received.
