Honda 125 Scrambler Mashup
Last week I've interviewed James Fawcett about this cool Honda 125 Scrambler mashup: Why did you build this bike? Last year I built a CB200t with my then 17-year-old son. This year, my 13-year-old decided he wanted in on the fun. After tinkering with his old XR80, his ideas … [Read more...] about Honda 125 Scrambler Mashup
BMW K75 by Industrial Moto
Industrial Moto's first build was a 250 Suzuki cafe racer. It was purchased locally in Virginia by a guy who had never ridden a motorcycle before. Since that time he has completed a motorcycle trip across Vietnam and put many miles on his Suzuki closer to home. When he decided it was time to move … [Read more...] about BMW K75 by Industrial Moto
Moto Guzzi V9 Racer
As a Moto Guzzi V7 Racer rider myself, Guzzi's always get my attention. This V9 Gannet Moto Guzzi is a pure racer with tight stance and proportions.

It … [Read more...] about BMW K100RS by Motochef

BMW K75 Cafe Racer by Tom Racing Designs
Where the classic airheads are a very popular base bike for building a BMW cafe racer, the search for a used bike became more difficult every day. Prices have risen to astronomical heights so builders with a tight budget had to look for other base bikes. A logic step was to look for the BMW … [Read more...] about BMW K75 Cafe Racer by Tom Racing Designs
Suzuki GS1000 Brat by Purpose Built Moto
Although Suzuki is one of the largest motorcycle brands, we don't feature a lot of customized Suzuki's. In fact, it was back in January since we've featured one. So I was glad to receive a submission of this Suzuki GS1000 Brat from Tom Gilroy, owner of Purpose Built Moto. The GS1000 is one of … [Read more...] about Suzuki GS1000 Brat by Purpose Built Moto

HD Sportster Brat by XTR
We can almost put it on our calendar every month: a fresh build from our friend Pepo Rosell of XTR Pepo. And as always, it's a little surprise for us what base bike he took. XTR usually has a special love for uncommon machines. And this month he took a brand new Harley-Davidson Sportster 883 to turn … [Read more...] about HD Sportster Brat by XTR
