Build in progress


Old School Motorcycles Time Bandit Project


Our mad mechanic, Vern, is presently working on a custom
Time Bandit Deluxe Bobber 1946 style rigid frame, with an S&S 93 cu Knucklehead motor, 4 speed baker transmission and a vintage baker primary.

So far we've started the assembly for fitment, making sure all the parts fit and work properly. This part of the build should last approximately 30 hrs and we're 18 hrs in. We've converted the newer style 3 gallon fat bob tanks to a hand-shift style and fit a soft tail oil tank into the hard tail frame, which we've had to fabricate all the mounts for. Check it out:


European frame and forks


Fitting oil tank.


Fitting shifter onto newer style tanks.


Machining tank inserts.


Five hours in.

  1. Ordered a bike from this company in May 2017. They took my deposit of $19,000 dollars with a delivery date 4 weeks later. Now 8 months have passed and no bike or refund. Too many excuses why they can't get frames made. Buyers beware. This is my review of this company and how they have treated me. Very disappointed customer. Todays date Dec 7th 2017
