Cha Ching Part 2: from Kustom Fab

When we last left off, I was finally able to get the bike to the shop for the “Final Phase” of the build. This is where Roger, Norio, and parts manager “Mel” came rolling in to save the day and take this project to a whole new level. From this point, the project started to suck in its “bling” factor with all the final precise details making it truly unique. Everyone has ideas or input as to what should go on any bike but when push-comes-to-shove the question remains…can you make it happen?

Luckily this team’s actions speak louder than words and make those dream elements and details a reality. The team at KFAB has an abundance of creative ideas and a fantastic work ethic to make sure these projects flow from paper to reality. No matter how “old school” or “primitive” the method may seem…it gets done with quality and care. Roger is truly the master craftsman and I am lucky to have the good fortune to be mentored by him. Here are a couple examples of his handy work.

Creating The Speedo/Light Housing







Darren is a humble builder. He built the oil tank and the finned vessel holding the battery in front of the bike. Roger detailed the battery terminals. Darren designed this café racer swingarm configuration.
