Cheap & Chic

.


Bob send me a few days ago the pictures of these two bikes he just finished. I really likes this kind of bikes, cheap and tasty. Bob knows how to capture the essence of a bike for sure.


Bikes are a 1980 Honda cb750c and an 82 Kawasaki KZ550; both just finished. Idea was to make very driveable, fun, cleanly designed, not heavily modified bikes for not so much money. Bob Herdlein is an artist as well as a website designer for a media company. He lives in New Hampshire, USA, and he works out of a basement and prior to that a little garage. He started doing bikes, once again, the last 2 years culminating in building these two.
