Ultimate chopper: Bones’ Harley-Davidson VL panhead The days of choppers selling for crazy money disappeared around 15 years ago, along with mainstream interest in the genre. The Gucci theme is (thankfully) low key, apparent in the seat upholstery and that lovely ultra-luxe green and gold paint. The headlight is from a Scrambler Ducati, and Ingo’s also added an Acewell speedo and small custom fender. Ingo has given the Ducati a new exhaust system that sits under the engine, a custom solo seat on a truncated rear frame, clip-ons, and brake and clutch master cylinders from a Ducati 1199. The commission started with a simple re-paint job on a client’s S2R, which quickly morphed into something much more involved. But for the past couple of years, he’s also been creating his own customs and the latest is this machine called ‘Gucci.’ ĭucati S2R 800 by KickassTuning The Monster is a brilliant platform for a light custom job, and this S2R from 28-year-old Ingo Kikas immediately prompted us to scan the local classifieds when it landed in the EXIF inbox.īased in Estonia, Ingo spends his days building and painting project bikes for local dealers and custom shops. Even if you don’t win, you can rest assured that your money is going to an incredibly deserving cause. It’s currently in Sydney, and a raffle ticket costs just AU$50. Every cent from the proceeds will be split between the Australian Red Cross, Save the Animals and the New South Wales Rural Fire Service.Īs you’d expect, the bike is an immaculate restoration, and goes as well as it looks thanks to a rebuilt engine.

This is sadly relevant to us because Australia is also home to several of the world’s top custom builders, including one of the pioneers of the current custom boom- Deus, which is headquartered in Sydney.ĭare Jennings is one of the co-founders of Deus and he’s raffling off his personal Triumph T140V to raise money for bushfire charities. The bushfires have ignited around 11 million hectares so far, which is around 27 million acres-an area larger than the Netherlands or Switzerland, and similar to Vermont and New Hampshire combined. Win Dare Jennings’ Triumph T140V If you follow the news, you will know that Australia is burning. You could also win the personal Triumph T140V of Dare Jennings, the founder of Deus, in a raffle to benefit three Australian bushfire charities.
