Katros Garage has drawn attention at Jakarta Fair 2026 with a Yamaha Gear Ultima build that takes the practical commuter scooter in a very different direction. The result is an adventure-styled machine with a clear classic rally feel, while still keeping the model’s everyday usefulness in place.
The project stands out because it does not abandon the scooter’s original identity. Instead, Katros Garage reshaped the Gear Ultima so it looks ready for touring and rougher journeys, but remains anchored in the same compact and practical base.
Classic rally cues up front
The most striking change appears at the front, where two large round auxiliary lamps with Hella-branded covers set the tone immediately. That choice gives the scooter the same visual language often associated with long-distance rally machines.
Other details deepen the adventure theme without making the build look excessive. A small yellow visor, red hand guards, a custom seat with red stitching, and an additional rear rack all help the scooter look more prepared for travel.
Practical roots remain intact
Even with its more dramatic appearance, the Yamaha Gear Ultima still keeps the character that made it appealing in the first place. Its daily-use practicality remains part of the package, which is the main reason the custom build feels balanced rather than purely decorative.
That balance is also what makes the concept interesting for riders who want versatility. The scooter now carries a stronger adventure identity, but it still stays close to the functional foundation of the original model.
Katros Garage’s approach suggests a direction for modifications that goes beyond styling alone. By combining a compact commuter platform with rally-inspired accessories, the workshop has created a machine that looks distinct on display while still making sense for real-world use.
Its appearance at Jakarta Fair 2026 reinforces how far a popular scooter can be reimagined. In Katros Garage’s hands, the Yamaha Gear Ultima becomes a classic rally-inspired adventure scooter that is both eye-catching and practical.
