Royal Enfield has officially opened public voting for the Busted Knuckles Build-Off (BKBO) Season 3 People’s Choice Award, giving motorcycle fans around the world the chance to choose their favourite custom Shotgun 650 build now that Expert’s Choice has been won.

Following the completion of the Australian dealer custom competition, attention now shifts from the judges to the public, with voting officially underway ahead of the June 2 deadline.

This year’s Build-Off challenged five Royal Enfield dealerships across Australia to transform the Shotgun 650 into a completely unique custom motorcycle with virtually no restrictions on style or concept.

The result is a wildly varied collection of builds ranging from stripped-back bobbers and drag-inspired customs through to radical one-off engineering projects.

Among the standout entries is the award-winning RE1000 from GRID Motorcycles, which recently claimed the Expert’s Choice Award thanks to its world-first 1000cc Royal Enfield parallel twin conversion and extensive handcrafted fabrication work.
