2006 Road
King
|
This
bike started life as a stock 2006 Harley-Davidson Road
King Standard. The concept was to create a 1956 bike
reminiscent of the bike Elvis Presley had. With the
addition of the side-car, this creation is a bike that
could have been ridden across America in the late
1950’s. The engine is a stock, “Twin Cam” motor with
“Panhead” covers and flex-pipe to achieve that
“Retro-look”.
Many
other features including paint, chrome, lighting, wire
wheels and exhaust all come together to complete the
theme of the 1950’s. |

1975 Ducati
750 'Sport'
Cafe Racer
The first year of the
famous
Ducati 'Sport' models. These bikes were, at the time,
the
fastest production motorcycles
on the market. The 750 models also included the street
model
750 GT and the highly sought-after racing model 750
Super Sport. They are set up with the shifter on the
right side and the brake on the left in the British
style in order to be competitive with the top English
motorcycles
of that era. |

'The
Robber"
2005 Springer Classic
The theme
was a raw, bare bones, old school bobber with just the
necessities to make it functional. A combination of new
technology including centrifugal clutch and old school
craftsmanship make this a unique ride. |

'39
Harley-Davidson
EL 'Knucklehead'
This motorcycle
is a one-off ground up build that represents the low
sleek look of the late ‘30’s cruiser. Most of the parts
on this motorcycle were hand fabricated to excruciating
detail including the gas tanks, dashboard and faux
generator and distributor. As in all 20th
Century Motorcycles, the latest in technology was used.
The motor on this bike is a 2007 96” Big Twin and is
coupled to a 6 speed Baker transmission. |

1976 Moto Guzzi 850 LeMans Cafe Racer
This bike has been modified to look more
like its predecessor - the V7 'Sport'. The original
model had some last-minute add-on items that made parts
of the stock bike look like afterthoughts by the
manufacturer. But this was a powerful racing machine and
was the only European bike in its time to give the
Ducati 'Sport' series serious competition. |

2000 Kawasaki W650
This is a very cleverly designed Japanese air-cooled
vertical twin modeled after the great British twins of
the 1960's - except the electrics work, it doesn't leak
oil,. it has very little vibration and the brakes have
real stopping power. Oddly - it never caught on with the
American market. It is wildly popular in Europe and
Australia. |

2006 Triumph
'Thruxton' Cafe Racer
This bike has been modified from the
stock model by adding larger high-performance
carburetors, boring out the cylinders, and installing
racing exhaust pipes. The engine size has been increased
from 900cc to 1000cc. It has been given a typical 'cafe'
bike paint treatment. |

2005 Royal Enfield Military
This is another model based on the
Enfield 500cc Bullet. Believe it or not, this motorcycle
is only four years old. I have done very little
customizing to this bike. It was designed to look
exactly like its World War Two ancestor. |

2005 Royal Enfield
Bullet 500 Cafe Racer
This is based on the stock air-cooled
single cylinder 500cc 'Bullet' model. The alloy tank and
the racing seat are typical of how 'cafe racers' were
created by amateur enthusiasts from spare parts. The
cafe racer style was hugely popular in Europe and
Australia and these motorcycles were their version of
'Bad Boy' machines as opposed to the 'Bobbers' and
'Choppers' that were customized by American riders. |

1952 Vincent Rapide
This is a wonderful example of a classic
British V-Twin that was very advanced for its time This
model set a speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats
that exceeded all previous records
at the time. These machines are very rare and are considered to be one of
the most valuable motorcycles by collectors. |

1953 Indian 'Chief' Bobber
This was built by the 'American Chopper'
company. The engine is a replica of the 1953 Indian
Chief 'Flathead' fabricated by the Kiwi Motorcycle
Company in Riverside, California. This is a good example
of what a 50's era 'Bobber' would look like as opposed
to a later era 'Chopper'. |
