Tools Of The Trade 010
Honda Ape
Custom bikes are, of course, not limited to just the large displacement models. There is all kinds of creative ideas being displayed on some of the mini-bikes, like this Honda Ape by Moto-Moto. I did a Google search, but there’s scant info out on Moto-Moto, so it’s going to remain a mystery for now. Really nice bike though!

It’s got an ugly,multi-colored striped seat. The tank has one of those weird flowery skull pictures I can’t stand, and the main color is a pale yellow. You would think it would be a horrible looking beast, and yet there it is, sitting there and looking great! It’s a bobber Yamaha XS650 from Vintage Customs, and I can’t help but admire the work. Little details like the chain-link rear fender support, the rust headlamp bucket, and the whitewall tires add up to way more than their sum should be. I don’t know how they did it, but I’m glad they did!

One of my favorite builders is the Wrenchmonkees. Their bikes are always just a little bit gritty, yet polished at the same time. It’s a wonderful combination that results in some of the best looking builds out there. This Honda CB750 is a perfect example, with a stunning white paint job accented with flat black and gold trim. The Wrenchmonkees are one of the standard bearers of the custom bike world, and deservedly so.

At work (I’m a mechanic by trade) I have my toolbox, and it’s covered with stickers and decals. Most of the guys in the shop may have one or two, or none at all, but not me. This build reminds me of my toolbox. It ain’t pretty, but it’s distinct, and in a good way, I think!
