One of the world's most renowned customizers builds himself a scrambler...The Suzuki TU250, better known as the Grasstracker or Volty in some markets, is a lightweight single-cylinder street bike introduced in 1994 -- a throwback to the UJM machines of the 1960s-70s, featuring an air-cooled two-
In the annals of dirt track history, one of the most famous race bikes is the BSA Trackmaster. Dirt fans will know that it was campaigned by the charismatic but crash-prone Dave Aldana, who also featured in the movie On Any Sunday. In 1970 Aldana was beaten to the Grand National title by Gene Romero, but fifty years later, there are still plenty of folks who remember the BSA he raced. The classic BSA ‘Trackmaster’ even has fans in Europe, and some of the most passionate are to be found in a small French village called Ouerray—a few miles west
We're always curious to see what bikes the world's top custom builders choose to ride themselves.

Stacked alongside the smaller, air-cooled Monster 797, and the totally bonkers, liquid-cooled Monster 1200, it was more refined than the former and more manageable than the latter. The 821 was a perfectly proportioned package, packing a 112-horsepower wallop, and dripping with Italian swagger and brutal elegance. This custom Ducati Monster 821 pulls back some of that elegance, and dials the 821's inherent brutality up to the max. It's

Today, we are thrilled to present the first bike project from David King, a senior Mechanical Engineering student from Midland, Virginia, who says he was inspired by the bikes he saw on our site. The result is this 1973 DT3 (DT250) scrambler, which was "genuinely shed-built" during David's last two
