Torsten Sasse is the main man behind the Fischbach, Germany-based custom motorcycle shop called Sasse van Essen Custombikes. Even though this custom Harley Softail was built about five-years ago, needless to say it’s still a relevant custom today. Matter of fact, if I didn’t mention when it was built probably nobody would know from the finished product which still looks fresh...

     Now don’t get all hissy if these are a bit to much for your budget. You can dream can’t you? In the following days we will cover the rest of the Harley lineup where there’s sure to be something that hits you where you live and fits your budget too. Enjoy the CVOs and be sure to check in over the next few days to see the whole lineup broken down by models. 2015 CVO Street...

     Whether you would do the same work to your XL is not what this article is about, but you gotta appreciate the fact that Travis made sure no matter what he changed out or modified, he could still get out there and ride the hell out of it on the street. I hate to say it as it’s so overused, but that’s the true definition of Old School even if this bike definitely isn’t Old...

     Funny how when you break it down about what a builder/rider builds for them to ride, it’s not some overdone cliché of every ridiculous trend every customer thinks they want in their build. As one builder well known for 360mm rear tire bikes with giant cube paint-shaker engines when they were hip beyond hip told me when I asked him what bike of his he liked riding, he told me...

     Ah yes, style. Welcome to the Harley world where it’s so about style that no one even has to mention it or explain it. It just is, in a manner of speaking, what it’s all about and everyone tries to showcase their own style in their own way ─ good, bad or indifferent. Think a bike’s ugly? There will be ten people ahead of you who think it’s beautiful. Think a bike’s beautiful?...

    With a head this big, hats are out of the question because even if I can actually stretch them around my skull, it only makes my head look even bigger and that’s not a look I’m going for. If I was going to attempt to wear a doo-rag, I’d probably have to head to Bed & Bath to find something to fit. But, finally, a couple of bros, Sean and Zane Culleton of W.T. Customs and...

      When I look at a bike and the very first thing that comes to mind is, “What the hell were they thinking?” I have to imagine their trade-in allowance must have been pretty low or maybe the dealer had extremely bad taste too. I know there’s supposedly “an ass for every seat” as the old used car saying goes, but you don’t want to be one to broadcast that you’re that ass every...

      This gem of a customized Softail Springer is something I know the bad boy in all of you will appreciate so be sure to check out the photo gallery for all the pics. I mean, what’s not to like about a bike that still has all its road usefulness intact and yet you’d never lose this bird in a parking lot. Well maybe you might, but if the rest of us couldn’t find this...

    What makes this all the more intriguing is that Lionel lives about 20 miles outside of Paris and I don’t mean the city in Texas made famous by the 1984 movie Paris, Texas, or any of the other 21 American places named Paris. Yes sir that would be Paris, France, and the town Lionel lives in is Roissy-en-Brie. But enough of all that geographic hoopla, Lionel has taken a Street Bob...

    Even though he’s a mystery owner, I was able to trace down someone who had done a little repair work on this bike who had the wrong answer to my question about the bike and owner. All I could find out was that this dynamite hot rod of a Sportster was unfortunately totaled not long after it was finished by an idiot motorist. Man, that makes me more than a little sad as I really...
