The King Of The Footpath – The Postie

Kent’s Yamaha TR1

Macho Nacho – Mark’s Triumph Scrambler

Xxie – Nick’s ’75 Yamaha XS650

Meet Xxie, the 1975 Yamaha XS650 that earned its namesake firstly due to it being an XS model (duh) and secondly because of the unexpected money pit that it turned into. It’s all worth it though from our perspective, as it’s a killer build, and it...

The 2017 Custom Bike Highlights

2017. It left just as quickly as it arrived. What an amazing year for the Australian custom motorcycle scene with so many incredible builds taking place. We were fortunate enough to shoot shit-loads of content, host a kick-ass street party along...

Bryan’s ’91 Kawasaki Zephyr

When asked why he picked a ’91 Kawasaki Zephyr for the base of this build, Bryan bluntly replied, “I didn’t, I’d never even heard of them.” And it’s here that the humble beginnings of what would be an insanely cool build will now be...

Slick – 2017 Royal Enfield Redditch 350 Chopper

If you cut Santina 5 years ago she’d admittedly bleed orange and black. She didn’t just drink the Harley-Davidson Koolaid, but she mixed it up and served it at parties. Today however, a tidy little Royal Enfield would catch her eye and a love affair would...

Harley-Davidson Fat Bob 2018 Review

As a non-journalist, stuff like this shows me just how awesome the life of a motorcycle journalist sometimes is. It’s a sweet gig. Being flown around and accommodated while riding the latest and greatest bikes that have been built from a variety of brands;...
