Based on a bike built by an early post-war partner of Kawasaki, the Meguro 250, the Estrella (pronounced estreya) is a retro-styled, single-saddled war horse dripping with cool. With the Honda Julio, we brought you Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday charm. Now, with the Estrella, we’ve entered Steve McQueen in The Great Escape territory. If there isn’t a barbed wire fence nearby when you buy this bike, you might want to think about making one, because you’re going to want to jump it.
Twin shocks, matt paint, a few battle scars, spoked wheels, a single, classic look tan seat and a military style box on the side. It looks like it could have come out of one of those old war comics that they probably don’t sell anymore. The only thing that slightly takes away from the retro look is the front and rear disc brakes, but given that we’re almost as fond of stopping as we are of riding, we see that as a positive.
She’s only done less than 13, 000 miles so there’s plenty of riding left in her. Take her as she is; modify her to make her your own – you decide what would be best. But if you feel a connection to this bike, we’d love to show her to you in person. Get in touch to arrange a viewing.
