In the heart of Yogyakarta, Indonesia - a city known for its deep cultural roots and artistic spirit — a different kind of craftsmanship is taking shape. It doesn’t come from a batik workshop or a temple carver’s chisel, but from the buzz of CNC machines cutting billet aluminum with surgical precision.

This is Raceworks, Indonesia’s rising force in the world of performance motorcycle engineering.

And if you’ve seen one of their custom Harley-Davidsons - glimmering metal, muscular stance, and an obsessive attention to detail - you know these guys don’t just build parts. They build statements.

Raceworks started as a dream shared among a few passionate engineers and riders who believed Indonesia could produce world-class motorcycle components. Not “good enough for local use,” but truly global - parts that could stand proudly next to big names from the U.S., Japan, or Europe.

Their mission was clear: to merge racing precision with Indonesian soul.

“Every piece has a purpose,” says one of the founders. “We design everything not only to look beautiful - but to perform, to last, and to tell our story.”

That story quickly began to resonate. What started as a small workshop project in Yogyakarta has grown into a respected performance brand - with parts now seen on high-end Harleys across Asia, Europe, and even the U.S.

Walk into the Raceworks facility and it feels more like a motorsport lab than a garage. Rows of CNC machines hum as billet 7075-T6 aluminum is carved into swingarms, subframes, and primary covers that are as strong as they are stunning.

Indonesia’s motorcycle culture is massive - millions of riders, countless clubs, and a growing wave of custom builders. Yet among them, the Harley performance scene was still finding its rhythm.

Raceworks helped change that.

Through collaborations with Performance Baggers Indonesia, Raceworks became a central name in a new subculture - one that embraces big torque, clean lines, and mechanical artistry. These are not show bikes parked under neon lights. These are built to ride hard, tested across thousands of kilometers of tropical roads.

They’ve even documented 1,800 km endurance tests, pushing their billet swingarms and frames to the limit. “If it breaks on the road, it doesn’t belong in our catalog,” one Raceworks engineer jokes.
