Usually, this kind of machines don’t make it to the blog but in a way, this Yamaha XV1700 intrigued me. It’s called Project Warrior and is built by Spartak Garage from Russia.

I hear you think: “A bobber?!”… Let’s just give it a try! Remember the world’s fastest pizza bike, built in Dubai by VR Customs? Well, that build took place last summer, its hardtail design inspired by the beautiful bike you see here, completed just days before the pizza bike build off […]

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 […]

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 […]

Max & Jérôme, owners of custom motorcycle workshop and café HIDE Brussels, create awesome machines with their very own raw twist. Just like Droog Moto, they have their own signature on their builds. I can’t really give it a name, but if you take a look at their past builds, you recognize a […]

It’s always fun to receive an email from Grzegorz Korczak of Unikat Motorworks. Every time he surprises me with his wide variety of builds. Were some builders tend to have a preference for a certain brand or type, Grzegorz just works on all kinds of bikes. With a clear philosophy of his builds “1 […]

Two weeks ago you could see the “real life” pictures of the Honda CB4 “Neo Sports Concept” here at the blog. This is a production ready bike to get a piece of the market in neo-classic/retro bikes. But Honda is not only showing production models this year. Honda will also reveal […]

Check out this cool, minimalistic BMW R45 Bobber: the last two-digit numbered build of Cafe Racer Dreams: CRD #99. Pedro and his team are on a custom build train that seems unstoppable. With almost 100 builds, literally, everybody interested in custom bikes, has seen one or more builds of them. Their […]

I don’t feature a lot of bobbers, nor choppers. Don’t know why exactly, but maybe it’s just my personal taste. Nevertheless, I got a cool submission from our friends at L’établi Garage from France and I want to help these guys get a little exposure for their work. It’s their 3rd build and I got them […]

Straight from our southern neighbors in Belgium: an incredible Triumph Speed Triple Custom. The guys from Motokouture turned their hands on this 1050cc triple monster and turned into into something that looks a lot like dark art. Owner Steven Decaluwe started back in 2007 and has, next to his leather business, […]

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 […]

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but this is already the third custom Yamaha XSR700 this month. They just come in from all different angles and in all kinds of categories. This XSR700 was introduced last week at the Wheels & Waves festival in Biarritz. It’s a commissioned build for […]

Usually, I don’t like to just repost bikes from other websites. But with projects from a friend, it’s different. And the complete bike you see here is totally different. Regular readers already know the story and work of Arjan van den Boom, owner of Ironwood Custom Motorcycles and I’ve featured a […]

Fast scooters… There was a time here in Holland that everybody had one. Tunes machines with 50 or even 70cc to ride (or better) race the open streets. Since regulations about speeding got a lot tighter, and youngster can get their car drivers license on the age of 17, it seems […]

There are also smaller initiatives like Energica Motor, Aero Motorcycles and the recently featured E-RAW of Essence Motors. They’re all trying to change the paradigm of motorcycling and us, petrolheads. Now there is another […]
