I know about the complex history and rich architecture of Belarus, what I didn’t know is they could build killer custom motorcycles like this Ducati GT1000 Shifter. The spark of the custom scene in Belarus has been ignited by Yuri Shif Custom.

The Republic of Belarus, is a landlocked country in Eastern Europe bordered by Russia to the northeast, Ukraine to the south, Poland to the west, and Lithuania and Latvia to the northwest.

Motorcycles built by Yuri Shif  have been featured in many motorcycle magazines in Russia and throughout Europe. Looking at this Ducati GT1000 Shifter I have to admit that this bike is one of a kind. When you look at the stock Ducati GT1000 I bet you wouldn’t dare to customize it! But that’s not the case with Yuri Shif Custom they have taken something, which was already great and made it their own.

According to Yuri  “Ducati is one of not many bikes that have a soul, even when you are just standing right next to the bike, you can feel it’s alive. I love Ducati.”
