Unreal how good that looks.

I'm purposely not painting my bike so I don't feel as worried about dropping it with a work of art on it like you do.

Sometimes its good to have a little motivation not to crash. Most of us aren't going slow, and have to work on Monday.

From concept...



To reality...





Hey Eddie, ever take that thing off any sweet jumps?

It might not look like much, but last week this composite tank was matte black, scratched and chipped up, and all kinds of ugly. The Ape Logo and Lettering was done in 100% paint, to make sure it matches the custom bodywork replica perfectly.

Havn't had the chance to bump the thread up for a while, ...as we have been VERY busy at the shop, mostly in the paint booth, and at the racetrack for the AMA events

Here are a few shots getting ready for the AMA weekend, and then at the track with the RD team:

Just a small sample of recent works:

A lot of people might not know this, but we do world-class metal work in house. We make some of the best custom endurance gas tanks you will see at the race track. While this is a must have for the endurance racer, if you have the $$ for it, its a pretty cool add-on for the track-bike that has everything
Inquiries always welcomed.

A custom aluminum BMW tank done for Nate Kern

Here you can see an '09 - '13 GSXR 1000 aluminum tank, right next to its OEM Steel counterpart for comparison:

The Riders Discount Factory Triumph tanks we did for this years AMA Daytona 200:

Best paint job we've ever had. Even at the end of the season, after getting rock chips, washing it/cleaning it, etc. etc., paint usually starts to lose it's luster. This stuff still shines like new.

The paint scheme for next year's going to have to be different. Too many copycats.

Haha, they are flattering us Eddie. It'll officially be your job to go out and beat the dudes on the copycat bikes and make a statement.

Seriously though, thanks for the great compliments.

Just a couple of recent updates. I'm working crazy hours right now trying to keep up, but am greatful to have the opportunity to be working on some really cool stuff, for some really cool people, and a lot of great NESBA folk. We are already working with several teams and riders on 2014 AMA stuff as well.

Some of the recent exotics:
