Soldiering On To Lithgow – Ride Sunday

1946 Harley-Davidson WR Flat Tracker

Owning a piece of motor history, a machine that's elegant and restored to its former glory is something many can appreciate. This 1946 Harley-Davidson WR – by all means a rare machine – is still hitting the dirt, mud, and sand. This creature was born for...

Rob’s ’47 Harley-Davidson Knucklehead

Life for this bike started out as a 1948 Panhead, however an identity crisis was ahead and a change was to be made. For Rob, everything that he’s wanted to do in a Harley build was going to be in this bike. The end result is a testament to Rob’s excellent...

The Reverend – Josh’s Harley-Davidson Sportster

A big, heavy, American V-Twin isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when Café Racers are mentioned, but that’s exactly what pushed Josh to create The Reverend. This is a dark horse of a machine - a cruiser with café racer...

The Slob – Pil’s Harley-Davidson 1200

Meet ‘The Slob’ – no we’re not referring to Pil on a Friday night after he’s visited his local Kebab joint, but instead the 2004 HD Sportster XL1200R he’s hacked and attacked with his creative drive. The result is all kinds of geometry...

Love & Shovel – A Romance Story

Fenrir – Steev’s ’97 XLH 1200C

Two things that are evidently a huge part of Steev’s life are motorcycles and tattoos, and it would be one passion that would spawn another as he admired a ’98 Badboy Spinger when getting his first tattoo many years ago. Now he’s covered in ink, and...

El Lujo – Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail

Vicla style motorcycles were born from the Mexican Lowrider scene in the US. They’re completely blinged out pavement pounders that are all about personalisation. They’re none too common on Aussie roads however, but Smith Concepts and their mate Rob have...

Michal’s Harley-Davidson XLH883 Scrambler

Growing up in communist Slovakia, you’d scarcely find any Western motorcycles, let alone a Harley-Davidson - a machine that’s just about as west as it can...

Ray’s ’42 Harley-Davidson WLA

El Trineo – Chris’ Harley-Davidson 48

Keith’s Restoration Redoubt

Since Keith’s teens he’s always had projects to work on, and sure enough he turned this passion into becoming an Industrial arts teacher. Now that he’s retired, these projects have only grown, as he breaths new life into old...

Chris’ Cavern

The first thing you’ll notice after walking into Chris’ garage space – apart from the bikes – is how immaculate it is. Rarely will you see a workspace so light and clean, but still getting it’s fair share of use. There’s a reason behind this...

Johnny’s Pump Paradise

Johnny is a self diagnosed motorhead from birth. After walking into his shed, you’ll soon see this is an accurate diagnosis with no cure in sight, which we’re sure is fine with...
