Peets SLED done

What a sleek machine. Job well done Peet.
The colour is rich and classic, colour coded handlebars are very cool. You too could build yourselves one of these . . .

Peets Sled 2


The Sled comes to life. Peet is busy with final assembly and that candy deep red looks very classic. This could be one of the nicest SLEDs built yet .

All mocked up and taped up to protect all that new chrome because this one is for a guy known aptly as Mr Min. Yeah, he wipes while we are working on the bike . . . . and no thats not him.
That is Ronnie from the Cape Town dealership. More of whats Rons building soon . . .

The Cobra bike 2


The wheels, CNC machine from one solid piece of Billet aluminium and what fine detail man.
Chromed like a mirror and 21" in front with 10,5" wide going on the back. Getting an idea how this ride is going to look ?

Indian Johns original ride

This is the original softail. Nice , but not nice enough for the Old School legend. We are gonna transform this bull mastiff into a sweet larry style ape hanging machine . . . . . . what do you guys think about ideas for this one ?

Indian Johns Old School ride


This is Indian Johns ride . . . . . (no he isn't an Indian fellow) he just has dreams like the legend Indian Larry. A cool swave dude with time for anyone. This ride was just a simple '92 softail with a 240 rear. It's going old school . . . . and check out them apes , dog bone risers & crown gas cap ...
we will be keeping updates as this one progresses . . . .

IRB World Cup Springbok Pro Street


This awesome machine was commissioned by a good friend of Petes and now mine Mr Dean Hammerich. It was decided at the eleventh hour to build a Springbok bike in support of our team going to the IRB world cup in france and what a time to do it. We started with the build in June and fabricated and moulded the area from the gas tank to the rear fender to flow into one beautiful sculpture with Pete doing his thing with a candy green & gold paint design and yes of course we had to, only here in SA, a genuine springbok skin solo seat covered by leatherman extrordinaire Gary Oelman.

casino bike


The Sibaya Casino bike started in July and based on the famous Zulu themed Sibaya Casino in KZN. One off designed spinner roullette wheels from Ego Tripp in Texas(1st ever in S.A.) Mart Bros exhaust 2 in 1 3" pipe, ECC built beach bars , 2 tone ivory antique bronze paint.
9 weeks of tireless fabrication and a huge learning curve in building one-offs. A 3rd backbone was added to simulate the top of the gas tank curve which was a split Russ Wernimont blank in order to expose the frame (splitback style) A unique creation with an onboard cigarette lighter (yes) it has its own lighter.

S&S 96" polished motor, 6 spd tranny, 12" over 73 mm Inverted front end, hand built shark fin out of steel by Pete, genuine rugby balls hiding the wiring system, gills on side panels and rugby boot stud fasteners.
