JAKARTA - After successfully greeting premium Yamaha skutik lovers in four major cities, namely Semarang, Makassar, Bandung, and Tangerang, the CustomaXI 2025 event has now officially landed in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan as well as being the fifth city to complain about the creativity of the modifiers in showing off their best work.
Located at Pasar Segar on Saturday, October 18, thousands of visitors spilled over enjoying the atmosphere of the competition which was so lively and colorful. It was recorded that more than 5,000 visitors packed the location from morning to night, signaling the great enthusiasm of the community for this annual event.
Dozens of participants demonstrated in the two main categories, namely Street MAXI and Super MAXI, with the dominance of Yamaha NMAX and XMAX-based works that appeared full of characters and elegant touch.
"The CustomerXI event has indeed become an agenda for a modified contest that MAXI Yamaha's fans have been waiting for in Kalimantan. Moreover, this event has been absent here for a long time and has become the one-on-one CustomaXI 2025 event on the island of Kalimantan," said Chief Yamaha Area Terr.8 Kalimantan, Titan Gunawan, in his official statement, Thursday, October 23.
The Balikpapan CustomaXI event this time actually featured modified works with high standards. Many participants carry strong concepts with precise and neat work details. Even some modifiers successfully present local nuances through Dayak's tribal airbrush, creating harmony between culture and modern style.

One of the most attention-grabbing works came from Chandra, a participant from Samarinda, who lowered XMAX Connected with the theme 'Black Mamba'. His motorcycle successfully won the 1st Super MAXI XMAX Class, thanks to extreme changes in almost all sectors and modified costs of hundreds of millions of rupiah.
Wrapped in carbon fiber with an elegant touch of red graphics, XMAX looks amazing like an iconic snake from Africa, Black Mamba. In the front sector, LED biled lights add futuristic impressions, while CNC engine covers with lattice motifs provide a luxurious and aerodynamic aura.
It didn't stop there, the engine was upgraded to 380 cc, making it one of the most powerful XMAXs in the event. The legs are no less flashy, all components ranging from suspensions, rims, tires, to braking systems are replaced with super premium aftermarket parts.
Even the price of the rim alone reaches around Rp. 38 million, equivalent to the price of one Yamaha NMAX Turbo unit. No wonder this motorbike is dubbed the XMAX Sultan.
"I'm really happy to be able to participate in the CustomaXI Balikpapan event. This is my first event in this contest. Honestly, my friends and I, who worked on this motorbike, were classified as chasing it because it wasn't until two months, so we really worked hard to be able to create a strong concept," said Chandra.
