Bikes of the Month – February 2016

The shortest month of the year is behind us, days here in Holland are getting longer, the sun becomes stronger and we can almost take out our rides without freezing off… For this month we’ve also made a selection of, in our opinion, the best custom motorcycles around the web.

This month we see have selected a great Aussie Honda CX500, a Triumph Bonneville from Italy, a German Yamaha XJR1300, a surprisingly clean Honda CB550 from Poland and a small but beautifil Kawasaki Estrella 250 from Indonesia.
