Video: bike of bolts

By

Just a well-made video about a cool bike and the guy that rides it.

  • JonB

    Hella foglight cover for the win. Neat bike.

    The RSD “cafe” Sportster was at the GP. It looked pretty well sorted. Ride report would be neat.

    cool build. i wonder what kind of range that tank holds?

  • ike6116

    It’s cool that moving to the west coast for more access and all but I just want you to know for me, “Hella” is a bridge too far.

    • ike6116

      just to clarify not the brand but just the use of the word.

  • Johndo

    Cool lookin bike, and I’m not a H-D fan.

  • Bill

    Very well done (the bike and the video).
    Can anyone identify the music please?

    • Dani Peral

      “Alacran y Pistolero”, Chingon.

      Beautiful song :)

  • Joe

    I like what he did with it, I just don’t like the bike he used. I think it would have been nicer with a European bike like maybe an R100 or something like that.

  • nymoto

    In love with this bike, looks like how it sounds.

      Agreed, LOVE the way it sounds. I thought it was an old Triumph or something at first, based on the sound. An 883 with screaming eagle pipes though? Wouldn’t have guessed. But it totally makes sense.

    Respect to the guy right up until he talked about meeting some builder and getting his blessing. Who the fuck is anyone to say they own a style of bike? That is something the HD crowd would say…. oh wait, they have said that since the 80′s. BRide what you can afford, build what you want, fuck anyone who thinks differently.

    Guy definitely had skinny jeans on……..

    • RT Moto

      well said sir. i had a long winded comment but you said it just right.

    • th3w3s

      It didn’t seem to me like the builder he met had ego – it sounded more to me like he felt like a bit of a copycat, and when he spoke to the builder about it he was like hey whatever, don’t sweat it.

  • dux

    Would have appreciated a wheelie-shot. Otherwise nice bike.

  • Myles

    Cool bike.

    But that watch is fucking atrocious.

    Hella sweet vid.

    I want a bike like that one day.

  • Thom

    Great Bike !

    Great Video

    Great Music ( couldn’t be more appropriate)

    + 10 for his Persols

    +20 to him ( like those damn French of late ) for riding the hell out of the beast , pavement be damned !

    He might want to consider naming it El Pistolero . Completely apposite if you ask me .

  • DoctorNine

    A bit too self consciously constructed… as if for effect… for cool…
    The music is great, but inappropriate for him. He’s no pistolero.
    Unless he’s referring to the one in his pants. In which case I’ll buy it.

  • JRl

    One of the few bikes that looks better with someone on it rather than on it’s own. Bike and rider appear to just “fit”. That’s cool.

    • Wereweazle

      I’ve always felt this way about the bmw r1200r. On its own it looks strange, but with some straddling it all the lines make sense.

    Any bike offroad, that has no business offroad is cool in my book.

  • jonoabq

    I give him a thumbs up just for getting it past the napkin sketch to actually running. It ain’t perfect but its pretty effin cool considering what he’s working with.

    Please tell me something prevents his right leg from burning on that header. Otherwise, cool.
