Ajang Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show 2024 menjadi ajang pamer karya terbaru dari para builder untuk mendapat pengakuan dari penyelenggara ataupun tamu undangan yang memberikan pick award.
Best of Show Motorcycle 2024 diraih oleh Hideki Hoshikawa dari Asterisk Custom Works yang membangun Harley-Davidson Early Shovelhead 1978 setahun lamanya. Motor bermesin S&S diberi nama Bennu. Menurut Hideki, Bennu memiliki filosofi dalam. ” Gaya abadi dan universal, dan gambar sepeda motor yang menarik itu terus bersinar dan membuat Anda semakin tertarik melihatnya, meskipun sekilas terlihat klasik,” ujarnya menjelaskan arti dari Bennu.
Soal style, menurutnya hasil dari imajinasinya sendiri tanpa ada inspirasi dari gaya apapun. ” Makanya saya bangun Bennu ini setahun lamanya karena dibuat tanpa mengenal waktu piece by piece dan ingin detailnya juga indah dan berseni,” ujar pria yang pernah tiga kali ke Indonesia dan menjadi mentor program Honda Dream Ride project.
Dari Indonesia, Kustomfest memilih Triumph Street Scrambler 900 karya Heiwa Motorcycle sebagai Kustomfest’s Pick dan akan menjadi tamu undangan di acara Kustomfest 2025. Sementara Pickerstore Bandung memberikan pick kepada Candy Tower dengan motor Harley-Davidson Sundance Super XR1200 1999.
