following the black mamba, cobra and many more, each motorcycle custom by hookie introduces a new approach and function. the hookie triumph bobber orca is the same in the sense that it is different. it was the workshop’s own personal challenge to concentrate on a more minimal design. taking a stock triumph bonneville bobber, the modifications use bolt-on parts only.

in the words of the workshop, they believe in ‘design that works well even with just small changes.’ the hookie triumph bobber orca epitomizes this design philosophy. they changed the whole appearance of the original motorbike through functional accessories and attachments as well as a sharp paint job. the fuel tank is resprayed in a colorway that blends white and silver, whereas the engine cover has been blackeded out. elsewhere, significant changes include a dazzle cover in 3D-printed translucent SLA, solo alcantara seat, and new electronics, mirrors and a zard exhaust.
to complete, the clip-on lighting accessories highlight the design’s attention to detail. at the front, the bike is prominent with a 7’ LED cluster headlight with its own bracket. rapid indicators stick onto the custom handlebars and at the rear.
