BIG TIME: Honda Dax from Jzo Crafts.

You don't need to visit Taiwan to know that scooters are the island nation's most abundant form of transportation. From the buzzing city streets to the brilliantly maintained back country roads, and everything in between, scooters are king. In fact, Taiwan has the highest density of two-wheeled twist-and-go machines of any country on earth. So, it should come as no surprise then that a bike like the Honda Dax is incredibly popular amongst those who want all of that convenience, in a classically cool style. Modifying them is big business, but for NeMoto Hidetoshi and Jzo Crafts, they knew that if they were going to make a mini-moto a show winner, it would have to be extreme. Enter their totally handbuilt Honda ST125 Dax, a trophy winner at the country's top custom show, N.J. Raptor has a bite that more than leaves a mark. For NeMoto Hidetoshi, mini bikes of all kinds are just what they do, turning out incredible customs using the smallest motorcycles on the market as their foundation. Meanwhile over at Jzo Crafts, they're all about fabrication and are arguably the best in the country when it comes to custom aluminium work. So much so, that the king of the Taiwan scene, Winston Yeh of Rough Crafts, turns to them when he needs a tank or other major piece made from alloy. And Winston also runs and organises the country's top custom motorcycle show, 'Speed and Crafts' at the Songshan Cultural and Creative Park in Taipei City. And it was with this event in mind that this Dax was built, with the singular mission of not just competing with other mini motos, but going up against every bike in the building, with the aim of taking home the event's top trophy.
