If there is one thing which is as striking as it is enthralling about the bike the Italian Anvil Motociclette workshop creates, it's their unforgiving and raw styling. Here's the Nk-a, one of their new builds, just as mesmerizing like the other Anvils.
Based on an old Honda CB 500 from the late 70's, the Nk-a has received a new personality, a new attire and was, by all means, brought back to mighty glory.
If you've seen at least one of Anvil's machines, you know the drill: the body parts lose their paint coat, while engine and frame go black... and the Nk-a was no exception. The engine remained stock, though we believe it received a nice overhaul, and was painted in the classic Anvil flat back, just like the frame.
The four conical air filters are made in-house, just like the hand-made aluminium rear seat, rear and head lights, and the pegs. The tank was sourced from an old Laverda, stripped of paint and receiving black accent.
The Tomaselli handlebars were clamped lower on the forks, to reduce the stance and the Marving 4-in-one exhaust received a strange, uncanny, yet awesome white paint job. Being a matter of love r hate, we'd go for love when it comes to the Anvil Nk-a.
