Bandit’s Cantina Series: Episode 100

by K. Randall Ball with Illustrations from George Fleming, Atomic Bob, Hal Robinson Dick Allen Joey Bunch woke with a start. He rode an old ’69 Sportster XLCH with a magneto. It took him a few minutes of kicking to get it started on the cool morning. But then he blazed through the back streets of Venice, California, just west of downtown Los Angeles toward the designated meeting spot. Through one trash strewn alley after another he darted, making his way to the freeway. A confused kid, he watched his neighborhood deteriorate as more illegals, homeless and drug addicts filled the streets. He didn’t dare leave his vintage Sportster in full view of street traffic. It would be ripped-off in a hot second. Click Here to read this 100th episode in the Bandit’s Cantina series. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Craft and Punishment

A Tale of Twisted Fates of Artisans Deus Ex Machina was arguably the most popular and most impressive global brand for custom built motorcycles. Deus Ex Machina was built upon the development and creation of custom motorcycles. A clothing line got added for those fans of the brand who found it more satisfactory to order a Deus tee-shirt. This motorbike brand is now a luxury apparel handling the biggest names in fashion, peddling dreams to people, nay, to the masses. “Deus Ex Machina makes high-end motorcycles and loses money on each one” announced the newspapers. “That’s why we make clothing,” said Deus founder and owner Dare Jennings in that news report. “Otherwise, we’d go broke.” How could this be true? Why would one of the most successful and iconic custom motorcycle brand of the 21st century lose thousands of dollars on every bike they sell?

Keystone Auxiliary LED Lights

by Rogue Run….Brake….Turn….signals on a 2022 Ultra H-D Though the rear lighting on my 2022 Ultra Limited was good I felt that it could use a little more. I am one of those guys who wants folks behind me to see me and also know when I am stopping or turning. There are panels between the saddlebags and the fender that have cutouts for these lights. The lamps are mounted in a sealed housing that slips into the opening and are held in place with the saddlebag hardware and an adhesive pad. They would give me the additional lighting I was looking for.
