About a year ago we got a very cool bike in our inbox built by Chris Tope; a laidback bratstyle based on a Honda CB200 twin. This cool little machine made it to our Top 10 Shed Builds of 2017. It was no surprise that Chris continued with his new passion [...]

As promised in the beginning of 2017, we’ve reserved more space for shed builds. Of course, we L-O-V-E all those professional builds, but we also think that individual builders deserve a spot to highlight their work. For the occasion, we’ve made a list of the 10 best shed builds we’ve found [...]

The beautiful Abby Tiss with Lucky Customs’s Honda VF750.  More info about the bike can be found here. More info about the model here.

Yes! You’re right! Better late than never! This is the list of the 21 best custom motorcycles of 2017! Last year we did a voting based on the stats of popular bikes that year but this time we kept things much simpler. So no hard data, voting system, social statistics, or fancy [...]

Industrial Moto showed us a real nice lineup with custom bikes with out of the box creations like this CB750, this XV. Mark Long, the photographer, and copywriter of Industrial Moto was a bit in doubt about this project: “I know that you have featured a couple of Industrial Moto customs [...]

First of all: happy new year to everybody! We’re still working on the editor’s choice with the best customs of 2017, but I already got the first build for 2018 in my mailbox from our buddy XTR Pepo. Most readers know that Pepo isn’t afraid to take a rare bike as [...]

Yeah, that’s right: there is no such thing as a BMW R168. But this creation right here deserves its own model number. This piece of art is built by the guys from Kacerwagen from Spain, maybe you remember them from the radical Aprilia RSV1000 Cafe Racer I’ve featured back in April this year. This [...]

Maybe you’ll remember this awesome Honda CB750 Nighthawk Cafe Racer? If not, you really should take a look. It was build by Industrial Moto and shows us what these guys are capable of. Their latest project is called “Project Vasquez” and is based on a Yamaha XV.  Project Vasquez from industrial [...]

I think no motorcyclist could have missed that Milan was the center of the motorcycling world with the EICMA the past few days. There is a lot of cool stuff happening and we can expect a wide range of fresh retro-machines like the Honda CB4 and the CB4 Interceptor, the Kawasaki [...]

Back in September, I got in touch with Bolt Motor Co. from Valencia in Spain. They amazed me with this beautiful, redefined version of the Honda CB750. Today they’ve amazed me again with this awesome BMR R100RS Scrambler. The last time I saw a BMW R-series like this, was back in [...]

If you say KTM, I instantly think: small displacement, huge fun factor. And that’s just what KTM is all about. So I can’t help it to have a little crush on customized KTM’s. It’s a pity that KTM still is a relatively small brand for road bikes and that KTM doesn’t [...]

Scramblers are one of the oldest versions of custom motorcycles. Were the cafe racer has its origin in the mid-’50s, the scrambler goes way back to the 20s. British racers tend to race all kinds of terrain and these races were called “scrambles”. Jumping back to today, scramblers still very popular. [...]

As a custom motorcycle builder, in can be very tricky if you say that a certain build is inspired by something legendary. Chances are that you completely miss the boat and get a lot of critics. Especially when you say that the inspiration came from the P51 Mustang; the long-range interceptor [...]

Husband/wife Max and Erica of Droog Moto quickly made fame with their custom motorcycles. They’ve opened up their shop last year and delivered a handful of machines with post-apocalyptic looks which are best to be labeled as scramblers. It all started with this Honda CM400. But they don’t focus on one [...]

Another month of 2017 behind us, another Bikes of the Month on BikeBrewers.com with some interesting machines. The interesting part is that all five machines here are built around a base bike we don’t see that often. We’ve got four (!) out of the box Honda’s: a Shadow 600, a CG125, [...]

While some may have a 12 month motorcycle season, here in Holland we’re glad if we can ride 6 or 7 months a year. Of course, there are some hardcore purists who ride all year, but unless you have a Husqvarna with ski’s, I wouldn’t recommend it. But the spring kicked [...]
