The Ducati Hypermotard was something out of the box when it was introduced at the 2005 EICMA and instantly won the award for “best of show”. The name Hypermotard really did the job because the bike was offering a combination of a supermotard look and riding position and a serious +1000cc […]

A few days ago I received an e-mail from Andrew Lake with a project submission. It took me back to one of my first posts here: the CX500 Bratstyle by IWC. And I thought is was worth the share with my readers. The story are Andrew’s own words: I grew up in […]

Sometimes customizing a bike is more than just switching some parts and changing some colors. Sometimes it’s not. But it’s too simple to give this BMW R NineT, built by Mr. Martini from Italy, the tag “easy, thirteen in a dozen”. It’s te combination of parts and colors used, which makes this bike […]

If I say GSX-R or Gixxer I bet you don’t think of dirt roads and off road riding. But Motor più Garage from Italy changes that by turning a Gixxer into some kind of scrambler. Photo’s edited by Inazuma Luke.

Last week I’ve featured a “hidden gem around the corner”; the one-off BMW Cafe Racer built by Gerrit Tijssen. But when we visited his cozy workshop, my eye fell on a “side project” he called the BMW Bobber. When I asked him about it, he said: “Ahh, this was just an incomplete, far from original machine, so […]

As some of my readers don’t know a real winter season for riding, here in Holland only the real die hards and commuters ride their motorcycles. I’ve cleaned and hugged my V7 Racer, to get it back out in March or April next year. This gives me also the time to […]

Since day one I’m a big fan of Jose Rosell’s (a.k.a. “Pepo”) work. Usually Pepo focusses on Ducati’s, but this time he took a ’92 BMW R100R as a base bike for another awesome creation. His goal was to build a real classic racer, stuffed with only the best parts and […]

Guest post by Trevor McDonald California is a virtual playground. For those motorcycle riding in California, it offers such a variety of destinations that it can be hard to choose just one or even a few. Do you take the four-hour, 140-mile, twisty, roller coaster ride on Highway 36 from Red […]

When I started with BikeBrewers back in 2015, I never realized that the custom motorcycle scene would become such an interesting world for me. I met a lot of great people around Europe and made new friends. Finding cool builds still is one of the biggest challenges for me, since I […]

Custom Indian motorcycles are not featured that often here, so it was about time that a cool custom would pop up. About a year ago I’ve featured this beautiful Indian Scout by Roland Sands Design (listed #5 in our Top 10 Custom Motorcycles of 2015) and earlier this year this cool Indian Scout Boardtracker. This […]

Dealer build off’s seem to be hot lately. Last week we’ve featured a custom Victory Octane as a result of a dealer build off and brands like Ducati and Indian also had their competition among dealers earlier this year. Now it’s time for Triumph to get their dealers building customized versions and they’ve […]

This machine right here is the “Aero Racer”, a concept bike from the Italian brand Aero Motorcycles. which is best described as: high tech, electrical urban sports bike. Or something like that… The motorcycle is based on a Tacita motorcycle, also a small Italian brand with a line of EV motorcycles. […]

I’m sorry that I don’t have much to tell about this Honda CB550 Cafe Racer yet, only that it’s build by our friends of NCT Motorcycles and that it got a lot of views, likes and comments on our social media channels. It’s one of those machines that has something special, but it’s […]

It seems that a lot of motorcycle brands embrace the custom motorcycle scene. Brands even keep contests amongst dealers for “best custom” of a certain model. We’ve had the Custom Rumble from Ducati and Project Scout from Indian. Now Victory has “Operation Octane”, a contest for the best custom Victory Octane. […]

The successful Moto Guzzi V7 series are updated for MY 2017, and are the 3rd real update since the introduction of the “new” Guzzi V7 (the actual V7 is almost 50 years on the market). The V7 Mark III can be summarized as: more power, more technique, more differences between the models. […]

Usually when I feature a bike from South America it’s a small sized machine (like this cool Yamaha RD135 cafe racer) but today there’s a real beast from Brazil: a Honda CBX750 Cafe Racer, built by a small workshop called Zucconi Projetos. The first thing that stands out are are the main […]
