A bike enthusiast from Kerala has taken the internet by storm with his creative home decor, transforming spare motorcycle parts into unique design elements for every room. From the living area to the kitchen, his home showcases an impressive collection of bicycle accessories repurposed as functional decor pieces. Social media influencer Priyam Saraswat recently shared an Instagram reel offering a tour of this one-of-a-kind home.
Among the notable items, the man has used a Yamaha RX100 tank as a mailbox, and the engine mounts have been cleverly repurposed into a living room table. A vintage yellow Bajaj Chetak scooter has been converted into a plush sofa and a vintage Ambassador car proudly greets guests at the front entrance. The home Swift Dzire also has a clock made from pressure plate and a bicycle frame converted into a ceiling-mounted chandelier. Additionally, a Bajaj Chetak headlamp is creatively mounted on the wall and serves as a unique door lamp.
The cycling enthusiast also displayed some of the prestigious awards he received for his riding achievements, including a memorable photo of him being felicitated by the Chief Minister of Goa. Continuing the tour, the influencer was led into the kitchen, the centerpiece of which was a dining table made of spare parts such as nuts, bolts and spanners.
The wash basin is another interesting piece that is cleverly crafted with a petrol pump nozzle. For the towel hangers, a Mahindra steering wheel is mounted on the wall, adding to the vehicle-inspired decor. The mirror in the room is uniquely designed using an engine intake manifold complete with RGB lighting. In addition, Swift cars were redesigned into shock-absorbing kitchen lamps, and the fridge was creatively designed to resemble a classic Volkswagen Kombi, completing the unconventional yet appealing design theme.
At the end of the video, a car enthusiast reveals a bike he salvaged, restored it and traveled more than 1000 km in seven days, earning a place in the Indian record books. The rider also shared his background, noting that he had previously worked as a JCB operator and a mechanic in garages.
The video quickly gained attention on social media, with audiences appreciating bike enthusiasts' undying passion for cars. “More than the house, it inspires his passion,” remarked one viewer. Famous Indian rapper Karma, aka Vivek Arora, has praised a bike enthusiast, calling him a “legend”.
“People who have a passion for something are the most alive souls,” wrote another commenter, who shared his perspective, “Some call it madness, others call it madness—but I see it as pure passion.” The video has more than four million views on Instagram.
