THE MOTOR — COMPLEX CON 2024

Las Vegas, 2024. Complex Con. For the first time, Flower Instincts crossed the Atlantic, with a collection built around a single idea: speed.

The Motor borrowed its language from motocross — performance, aerodynamics, the aggression of a machine built to win. At the center of the stand, the proof: a Honda CRF 250R customized by the team. Not a prop — a real dirt bike, chosen for an engine that holds under extreme conditions, reworked to match the collection.

Except on the first day, the bike never made it to the stand. Customs had held it.

So the team split in two. One half stayed in Vegas and built the stand by hand — with markers, a blank wall, and the visitors themselves drawing the installation that should have been there. The other half flew to Oakland, went straight to the FedEx depot, and drove eight hours back with everything.

The bike arrived on day two. By then, the stand had been built twice: once by the community with markers, once off the back of a truck.
