Lucky Custom is a brand that was already featured on this blog. Twice… This tells something. You just can’t overlook their build when “scrolling” through the photos of custom bikes. They do have a unique style and a special feel to their builds. Aggressive colours. … Read More ›
End of year is near… time to summarize 2019. Few general comments though. First of all – yes, I was a little lazy this year. I managed to create only about half of the posts made in 2018. On my defence I have that most of … Read More ›
I like a build with a story when You can reflect the manhours spent in the garage with every detail made and modification applied to the machine. But this is going to be short and accurate. Just like the conversation I had with the builder. I … Read More ›
Someone who built a custom motorcycle… once said that “It’s not the donor bike that makes a custom, but a builder”. Wise man… The Honda CB is one of the most popular motorcycles in the world. It is also quite often modified… The custom scene … Read More ›
I have an issue with CB750. For once, undeniably – it is one of the most important motorcycles in history. It was the bike that started it all for the universal motorcycles segment. This is great. But with time… it got itself a name to … Read More ›
I’m sceptical regarding the builds that begin their life as a modern sport or sport-touring bikes. Usually, the build story behind such custom is something like: “I crashed my CBR, and want to fix it cheap” – meaning a street fighter or a quasi cafe … Read More ›
What I like in posting about custom bikes is that they don’t get old. I used to run a car blog, sharing thoughts about particular models, reviewing, comparing, brainstorming… The issue was that a 2009 Subaru Impreza WRX is only a hot topic for a … Read More ›
This is the first Honda CB1000R featured here. I’m not the biggest fan of contemporary custom bikes. Being retro-oriented, I find the classic look and old school bikes more appealing. Being also pragmatic and having the knowledge from this blog viewer numbers – I also … Read More ›
Oh dear… It’s another Honda Dominator Scrambler build. Well… What can You do? These bikes are having a well-earned renaissance in the hands of custom workshops. This time – this is not an Italian, but Polish build. This Dominator was modified by Eastern Spirit Garage. A … Read More ›
Despite that, the trend for “retro-modding” old dual-sport bikes is well and kicking, I still can’t get accustomed to the transformation of the looks these motorcycles go through. Just look at this build and then on the original bike. It’s hard to believe that these … Read More ›
Macco Motors will always have a special place on this website. It was one of their builds, that pushed me to search for and then modify my Suzuki GSX750S “Katana”. It was the “Iron Fist” that started it all along with the Icon 1000 build: The … Read More ›
Honda CBX1000 is one of the most iconic motorcycles of all times. It was a result of a historically brief battle of displacements and engine building philosophy, that was aimed to test the limits of sports bikes segment… and it failed miserably. A market experiment that … Read More ›
It’s been a while since my last Top 5 post. And about a year and a half from the previous Honda GL1000 GoldWing list. The builders were busy – as this majestic creature; an ultimate touring machine from the past is getting more and more popular … Read More ›
Today, I’d like to present You a build, that I met in real life. And it wasn’t an enjoyable encounter. I know Pawel from Street Garage as we ride together almost every week during “the Coffee Custom Spot” meetings. One day last season, when we were … Read More ›
I’ve met Massimiliano Satta mid-2018. I had an opportunity to feature his Suzuki GSX Inazuma build in April. He’s been busy since then working on his brand: MCAFEGARAGE. A few days ago we talked on Instagram, and he sent me this set of fresh photos … Read More ›
