Many bike tinkerers often have an overlapping interest in cars. For those of you in this sliver of the Venn Diagram, Paul Kalifatidi presents the Radical Rigs series. Like the bikes you’ve seen on The Radavist, these cars might be perfect. They also might be so far from perfection that they go full circle and become that which they meant to eschew. They might be dented and dinged, they might be muddy and mad, they might even just be rad. In part one of Radical Rigs, Paul juxtaposes Dillen Maurer's Baphomet Bikes "Fall Risk" custom full suspension and his "Lil…
Perfecting a suspension system is a daunting task, as it is arguably the most complicated system of any performance vehicle.
Digit have unveiled an interesting new trail bike that uses a custom rear shock / strut to deliver 140mm of travel.
When I think of a custom Heritage Softail, I think of a bike that has lost its way. You know the type: big bars, pointy grips and flames on the tank. But Steve Willis sees what he calls “the beauty trapped within”. Willis runs the spectacularly successful UK workshop Speed & Custom, and this is their latest build—called Flatliner. It started as a 'rather tired' 2006 fuel-injected 1450cc Heritage Softail, a donor bike from a customer. According to Willis, “The influences were 1930s and 1940s with a modern twist, using different materials and some anodizing.” After stripping the entire Softail
Back in 1974, the Kawasaki Z1 was the most exotic thing on two wheels. And nearly four decades later, it’s lost none of its lustre. This high-performance custom is a collaboration between the Japanese workshop Bull Dock and the British suspension manufacturer Nitron—hence the paintjob in Nitron’s brand colors. Showcased in Icon’s Limiter magazine, the Z1 is running full Nitron suspension front and rear, hooked up to Bull Dock's own forged 80s-style 'Lavorante' wheels. They’re shod with sticky Bridgestone Battlax S20R rubber. Other mods include an upgraded oil cooler and a custom aluminum tank. Handling is improved further with a
Joe Ramos made a great start of this mild custom build by swapping a front end from a Ducati Sport Classic to garner a set of spoked wheels and a nice suspension and brake upgrade for this daily commuter along with an Ohlins shock and a set of CNC machined rearsets.

Under the hood, there's not much difference between the Triumph Bonneville and Scrambler. Other than their firing intervals (the Scrambler has a 270-degree crank for extra 'thump'), the bikes are mainly separated by styling cues. Which means that, with a few well-placed mods, a stock Bonnie can be made as dirt-worthy as a Scrambler. Or more so—as is the case with this fire-road-blitzing number from our favorite Swedish surf-moto crew, 6/5/4 Motors. The Stockholm shop's client was bored with his stock 2007 Triumph, and wanted something more suitable to off-road excursions. So he brought it in for an overhaul. “He
The Triumph Scrambler's biggest selling point is its looks. It might not be the strongest contender in the performance department, but it has a nostalgic appeal that few others can match. And it’s easy to upgrade. This stunning Triumph Scrambler was built by Erne's Euromotos—a dealership and custom shop in Zürich, Switzerland. It's the perfect blueprint for anyone wanting to transform his or her own Scrambler with performance-based mods. The engine gets a big power boost via larger valves, hotter cams, and a higher compression ratio. To increase airflow, Erne’s modified the air box, fitted a free-flowing filter, and installed
