Taking on someone else’s motorcycle project is a gamble. Low prices can lull you into a false sense of security, especially when you’re motivated and capable—two qualities that Gas & Oil Bespoke Motorcycles have in abundance. Polished, high-end custom motorcycles are Gas & Oil's usual fare, so this fantastically filthy Honda XL500 flat tracker is a little left field for them. It was originally delivered to their Prague workshop in numerous boxes, but because it was an XL500 and the pric...| Bike EXIF
You can often tell when a custom motorcycle has been built merely to gawk at, and when it's been built to be ridden. This rowdy Harley Sportster flat tracker leaves little room for doubt. Inspired by the iconic Harley XR750, it hits all the right aesthetic notes, with a build spec tailored to daily abuse. It belongs to Romain Leclerc—a filmmaker based near Toulon on the French Riviera. As a teen, Romain rode BMX with a group of friends who called themselves 'Les Pirates.' Years later, the g...| Bike EXIF

The most unlikely custom motorcycle tops this week's assortment of machines; a Ducati Indiana flat tracker. We also profile a Honda Transalp from Bolt Motor Co., a cheeky Yamaha XSR155 scrambler, and an ex-Barry Sheene Suzuki TR750 that's up for auction at Bonhams. Ducati Indiana 'Von Tracker' by Francis Von Tuto History may have forgotten the Ducati Indiana, but those who lived it aren’t so lucky. There was a time when all the Italian marques all wanted a piece of America's 'factory choppe...| Bike EXIF
If there's one man who knows how to eke every last bit of performance out of a flat tracker, it's Richard Pollock. The man known as Mule has been building (and racing) them since long before Bike EXIF was even conceived, and has built some of the most lust-worthy trackers to ever grace these pages. So it's little wonder that his latest creation—a full-throttle Hooligan flat track racer—is such a tour de force. If you're not familiar with the American Grand National Hooligan Championship, ...| Bike EXIF
Even though the Harley-Davidson Evolution Sportster is no longer in production, it's eons away from going extinct. There are plenty of second-hand Evo Sportsters kicking around, and no shortage of aftermarket parts for them. And as long as the Sporty is still in play, masters like Richard 'Mule' Pollock will be on hand to extract the maximum potential from it. Most of the Sportsters that roll out of the Mule Motorcycles workshop are either bona fide flat track race bikes, or street trackers t...| Bike EXIF
Ever since Harley-Davidson went quiet on the future of the seemingly ill-fated Bronx streetfighter, we've been waiting for The Motor Co. to build something truly spicy with their 150-horsepower Revolution Max engine. The new Sportster S is a step in the right direction, but it's held back by confused styling, a hefty visual weight, and cruiser-like ergonomics. Perhaps the answer lies within the Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 instead. The Harley Pan America made waves in the adventure motorc...| Bike EXIF
Crunching the numbers to pick the 10 best custom motorcycles of the year is a headache. But picking my personal favorites is even harder—especially when you consider the caliber of the machines that we regularly feature. As has become my process, I start with a short list of 30 to 40 bikes, then spend a few days whittling that down to a manageable size. To level the playing field, any bikes that are already highlighted in our ranked Top 10 are eliminated, and the remaining candidates are sh...| Bike EXIF
The new BMW F900GS has only just hit the scene, and VTR Customs has already got their grubby paws on it. Other highlights this week include a Rotax framer from the UK, a BMW R100GS rally replica from the US, and a look at Biltwell Inc.'s new collaboration with Santa Cruz Skateboards. BMW F900GS by VTR Customs If you've ridden the new BMW F900GS, you'll know it's a marked improvement over its predecessor. Gunning for rivals like the Yamaha T7 and Triumph Tiger 900, BMW has not only given their...| Bike EXIF

Richard Pollock has an enviable problem: a full order book. Just last week, we featured a stunning Harley Sportster street tracker in his signature Mule Motorcycles style. It turns out that he churned out a second Sportster around the same time, and it's just as wild. The project was conceived when Mule's client brought him a very unique Harley-Davidson motorcycle—an early 'iron' XR750 flat tracker that had previously been owned by the late Allan Girdler. A lifelong racer, journalist, and f...| Bike EXIF
