Ugly Motor Bikes

 
Based out of San Diego Ugly Motor Bikes is a custom shop and despite what their name may suggest they produce some sweet looking machines.  This Honda CB650 is one of their creations and from the solo seat to the heat wrapped exhaust it is anything but ugly.

Mabel


"Mabel" as this bike is effectually know started life as a rusted out 1978 Honda CB750.  The guys at Dime City Cycles, crazy as it may sound, actually gave this bike away, believe it or not, after she was brought back to life.

Betty #2


 
This is the second bike to roll into the Zephyr garage.  A 1983 Suzuki GS1150ef.  We picked up two of these gems for the price of one and are planning on a restoration and customization. Follow the build on our Betty #2 page.

Jerolamo


This beautiful Triumph triple is the handy work of Mr. Martini in Italy.  Showing why the Italians are so well known for their style, Mr. Martini has taken this unlikely Triumph, cut away all the unnecessary garnish and added just the right touches to make a truly modern café racer.

The Thorn


The Thorn is a gorgeous bike from the guys at Twinline Motorcycles just south of the border in Seattle, Washington.  The bike is powered by a Kawasaki EX500 motor bored out to 600cc and cradled in a modified Honda CB550 frame.  Check out their website for full details on the bike and the build.
 
 

Ducati 900ss

 
A lovely Ducati 900ss from Union Motorcycle Classics. Modern performance with café looks. Union's design is almost nicer then Ducati's own Sport Classic 1000s.  Check out there website for more bikes and café fairings.

Honda Cafe


My cousin sent me this nice little Honda.  The blacked out rims and Vintage look Firestone tires really add to the clean lines of this bike.

Monkee #1

 
 
I have always loved Kawi's GPZ and this beast, the first bike to come to us from the boys @ WrenchMonkees, is an excellent example.  Raw and brutal, Monkee #1 was just a small glimpse into what we have come to expect from the mad motorcycle masters from Copenhagen.
