Renegade Custom's Yamaha Scorpio - “Desert Racer”
Saturday, September 15, 2012 
It's funny how two seemingly incongruous things can go really well together. Like pickled fish and sour cream, tractors and drag racing, or hot girls and samurai swords. At first glance you'd dismiss the match-up, but once you see (or taste - and I mean the fish, not the girls) it in action, you're sold. Likewise for motorbikes and deserts. From a tarmac-centric point of view there's not much to be said for turning you back on the smooth, safe blacktop and heading towards the cacti. But once you get a taste of the dirt in your mouth and you loose the road, you realise that the whole planet is yours to conquer. Just ask Steve McQueen. And Ren de Haas, of Sydney's Renegade Customs.
