Built over a period of two months, Rodney explained how this all started in the first place. “The frame and motor was bought by a customer of mine. I was building a Shovelhead for him at the time and he was running low on money so we made a deal on this bike,” said Rodney. “I had an idea of which way I wanted to go and just started ordering the necessary parts. Once I had the...

     After a slight pause where I could hear her typing furiously to the gentleman on the other end that it was a go and then getting his first question, the conversation began. Basically, it was about what kind of Harley he wanted and what he could afford. Turns out his credit unfortunately sucked and that new Fat Boy just wasn’t going to happen. But, I could get him on a new...

   Like the ubiquitous, but iconic Coke bottle or a red ’63 Sting Ray split-window coupe, some shapes are designs for the ages. Whether it was trial and error, extreme talent or just honest luck, certain things have reached their zenith as far as their design goes. Basically, they just have such a purity of line that even mild modifications can have big ramifications. Along with...

    Obviously I’ve kinda been smitten by this bit of bobber brilliance and I’m sure you are too even if you never ever wanted to own a hard-core hardtail bobber especially powered by something straight out of the AMF years. As I said, we never found the owner, but they’re one tough SOB to ride a bike as mechanically overbearing as this, but there is a sweet side to them too. Just...

     I probably should confess I’m a huge fan of Heritage Softails for purely aesthetic reasons and this white 100th Anniversary Harley hits all the right Harley buttons for my taste with a few possible exceptions that has nothing to do with anything more than my own personal taste. I think that’s what makes feature bikes like this pretty damn interesting since I can look at Jack...

   Even though Jack Cofano photographed this knockout at the recent Smoke Out, it just might look a bit familiar to you if you caught the fourth episode, Rust Belt Edition of Discovery Channel’s BikerLive. Pat and the Led Sled crew duked it out with Porky’s Chopper Co. and Raw Iron Choppers. Who won? I don’t particularly care as I’m not a huge fan of builder shows that don’t show...

  What you’re looking at here is a FXR phantom build of sorts by the guys at The Garage at Ray Price in Raleigh, North Carolina. Beginning with a customer-supplied 1991 Harley-Davidson FXRS (Super Glide) that was in pretty rough shape to begin with, it got stripped to the bones for a re-launch as current day interpretation of what a sporty touring version of the FXRT could be like...

   If you’re reading this, you probably aren’t in Daytona Beach for Bike Week, but not all is lost. Barnett’s Magazine Online’s photo bug, the lovely Jack Cofano, is beating his feet all over Daytona and points beyond digitally capturing the event and bringing back lots of photos of new bikes from all over the country and the world. I’ve followed him around a few times and it’s...

  This particular bike is not destined for a bar, well at least not on the inside as of yet. The bike is called the Fulcrum Tactical and it’s actually a raffle bike for a law enforcement charity called Fulcrum Tactical Training and Support that was according to their website “created with the specific purpose of providing otherwise unattainable training and support to law...

       Not only did that not stop the brave builders from exhibiting over sixty motorycles, but there was another exhibiting contingent there as well that didn’t let that stop them either. That would be the car freaks and if you love custom motorcycles, you surely have to appreciate custom cars as well. There may not be as many on display as the motorcycles, but you gotta give a...
