The unstoppable Pepo Rosell, a.k.a. XTR Pepo is the most featured builder out here and just as expected, he delivered another amazing bike this month. While Pepo has a long heritage with Ducati, he’s never afraid to pick something different. This time he took a 2001 Honda Hornet and gave it the […]

In a world where everybody is looking at each other through a little screen, it’s becoming harder every day to be original. Same goes for building custom motorcycles, it’s hard to build something that’s not been done before in one way or another. Another difficulty is that everybody seems to know […]

I really love digital media. It has made life so much easier in many ways. Yes, I am aware of all its downsides too, but let’s stay on the positive side. Finding inspiring builds and creative builders has never been so simple. Just browse Facebook, Twitter, and all other available channels and you […]

As a V7 rider myself, I’m always a bit biased when it comes to custom Guzzi’s. So yes, I was happy to receive this Moto Guzzi V7 Sport racer in my inbox by Shiro Nakajima. Shiro is the founding father of “Ritmo Sonero”, a motorcycle parts shop in Japan for European motorcycles. This […]

Yes! Another build by our friend and unstoppable builder Pepo Rosell, or better XTR Pepo. If I get an email with his latest build, it’s always a bit exciting. What did he create this time? It’s never a dull bike, and every single creation has something cool. This time he took a […]

From mild-mannered cruiser to hard-edged café racer, change is a beautiful thing. Check out this Top 10 Yamaha Virago Cafe Racers and see if you agree. The Yamaha Virago was a significant milestone in the Japanese Cruiser family tree, but before we get there, here’s a quick cruiser history lesson. Not surprisingly […]

Last February I’ve posted this beautiful Honda CB400 Cafe Racer built by Retrorides. With this bike, the Brazilian brothers Gustavo and Rodrigo Lourenço showed what they are capable of and that they were able to redefine the standards for building a Honda CB cafe racer, still the #1 bike for cafe racer projects. […]

Regular readers may know and recognize the work of Mr. Martini, located near Verona, Italy. I’ve featured some really cool builds of them earlier, check out this R nineT and this Zaeta 530. This bike right here is based on the Ducati Scrambler, which became a very popular bike for customization […]

Delivering one high-quality custom motorcycle nearly every single month requires a lot of things. You need to have the right skills, know the right people and have the right friends. Jose Rosell a.k.a. XTR Pepo has it all, and he keeps delivering awesome rides. This is his last one. It’s based on […]

The Suzuki SV650. My first real (road legal) motorcycle. I still can remember the day that we’ve picked up this half-fairing, sharp-lined v-twin machine. Not a lot of power, but lots of torque and fun for rookie riders who like to have a bit more “punch” than the regular four inline […]

Scramblers maybe one of the most popular type of custom bikes lately. You see them pop up everywhere and every self-respecting brand now offers a production model. While the scrambler motorcycle has its origin back in the 1920s, we may carefully say that Triumph started a “new wave” of Scrambler enthusiasm with the […]

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 […]

Another month, another overview of the best custom motorcycles from around the web.

Welcome the best bikes of October 2016 Custom Harley-Davidson by […]
