This is a show bike, a head turner, with custom hand-cut and sewn seat technique by a Detroit local shop. The body powder coat is locally applied and color matched to the authentic early-2000s repaint on the original tank, body and fenders. This is what a resto-mod was meant to be.

Get your perfect town bike when you convert this 1982 Yamaha SECA into a fully electric motorcycle. The SECA is perfect for a town bike, commuter, or even multi-day trips when you include a fast charger.

With a totally unique slipstream-tail shape and complex tank profile it really stands out in a lineup. There's a reason this motorcycle earned such great reviews when it was new: Great Styling!

"The SECA’s styling is no surprise, being based on the same theme as the 550 Vision and the 650 Turbo. But in the 400-450cc class, it is distinctive, a conscious effort to make the bike look both racy and futuristic. The gas tank is wide at the front and in the middle, and cut back where it joins the seat. The side panels continue the flowing lines of the tank and carry them back under the seat to the tail section, which is a miniature, stylized copy of the streamlined tail sections found on works 500cc and 250cc Yamaha road racers a few years ago.

The front fender flares out just ahead of the fork sliders, again reminiscent of road racing streamlining. The wheels are cast aluminum in one of Yamaha’s two new spoke styles — sort of four two-sided rectangular boxes linking hub and rim. The quartz-halogen headlight is rectangular, as are the instrument console, the mirrors and the taillight."
