Custom Bikes Of The Week: 21 January, 2018
Death Machines Of London return with an aero-inspired Moto Guzzi. A BMW R 1200 ST gets the radical supermoto treatment. And a pair of delivery-mileage icons go under the hammer at Bonhams: a Honda RC30 and a Yamaha FZR 750RT. Time to buy a lottery ticket"
Ducati SuperSport 1000DS by Barn Built Bikes It was many moons ago, but Sven Decoux?s work is no stranger to these parts: the Belgian master built one of the finest Ducati SuperSports I?ve ever seen. Well, Sven?s been at it again and this time around he?s upped the ante well beyond the application of a tricolore scheme.
A keen eye might catch the fact that the tank on this new cafe racer is a touch larger. The client behind the build had dreams of riding into the mountain passes without the need of a fuel stop. Nico Dehart was again tapped to fab the custom tank, this time with a 12-liter capacity, and has done another stellar job. Perched atop the bronzed Ducati trellis frame, Dehart?s work is finished finer than any 750SS that ever rolled out of the factory.
To better accentuate the paint on both the body and the frame, the L-Twin has been completely blacked out, matching the new Alpina spoked rims. Other hard parts, like the swingarm and rearsets, have been treated to a brushed, raw finish. The end result absolutely nails that classic cafe aesthetic which, trends be damned, still stirs the cockles of our hearts around here. [More]
