Germany's Motorrad Bläsing has won Royal Enfield's European custom contest, the Busted Knuckles Build Off 2026, with 'Shaan,' a custom build based on the Shotgun 650. It's the dealer's second win since the inaugural 2023 contest. Six dealers across Europe competed with a £5,000 budget and six months to build, with the winner earning a fully-paid trip to a festival in Goa, India.

The same dealer winning again after 2023 isn't luck, it's proof of real skill, from where I'm standing. A £5,000 budget and six months is plenty of a constraint for someone like me who judges every new bike by who ends up modifying it. Choosing the Shotgun 650 as the base shows good instinct too — go see the build in person and you'd feel that energy.

Wait, isn't the winner paying for that India trip themselves?

Nah, it says fully-paid, so the company's covering it I think.

The same dealer winning twice really proves the skill involved.

The other countries' dealers are gonna come back way more serious next time.

I really want to see how the Shotgun 650 build turned out, so curious.

That quality out of a £5,000 budget is genuinely good value.
