Fifteen of the best Ilonggo ingenuity were on display to showcase their paint, color, design, and different modifications and accessories for the public.

Aficionados and other enthusiasts stopped and stared, others took photos of the bikes, while others were wooed by the distinct designs of the participants.

 

Four Yamaha Mios competed for the title of Best Scooter as these Mios wore different coats of paint and were jazzed up with both body graphics and accessories. The Moped class was divided into two separate categories, the B-Class or the slightly modified, and the A-Class or the heavily or super modified. In these two categories, the participants were really dressed up to impress the crowd and judges. Color themes, race bike replicas, unusual set-ups, out-of-this-world accessories, and other ways of pimping out a bike was done to the various models ranging from Honda XRMs to the underbone king, the Suzuki Raider 150. Within these assortment of bikes, two motorcycles stood out to attract most of the passers by due to its size, simplicity, and uncanny design. Two Chopped Hogs, or commonly called Choppers, were also there to battle it out against each other for the title of Best Custom Big Bike. This truly was an exotic collection of the mild to wild bikes of Ilo-Ilo.

 

Judging was done later that afternoon with three judges, Jonathan George Uy of The Racing Line (Davao), Danilo Santiago of Shago Racing (Manila), and Gus Banusing of Ground Effect (Ilo-Ilo). They looked, scrutinized, and crammed their fingers in the bikes to check their fit, cleanliness, and smoothness of the fifteen brave bikes on display.
