ride mot orcycles h av e f u n Fun starts here. Where it ends is anyone’s guess. How you get there is up to you. At Biltwell, we try to make every two-wheeled adventure more satisfying by making things better. Everything from helmets and riding gear to high-performance parts and DIY accessories.

Fun is everywhere. On a chopper in San Felipe. Racing down a beach in New Jersey. Under a dusty tarp in Grandpa’s garage. If you can’t find fun on your own, make some with friends. All you need is inspiration, motivation, and elbow grease. The roads we take in life are the fun part. Everything else—the rough climbs, the blind curves, the scary descents—make us appreciate our destinations that much more when we reach them.

So, choose your path wisely. The life you crave may be your own.

¡Motos con Amigos!

2019 el diablo run When a bicycle builder named Bill Harley and his friend Art Davidson sharpened pencils to draft their first motorcycle, neither man could have imagined how their eternal combustion machine might put wheels on The American Dream. Freedom and mobility are cornerstones in a vast number of human achievements, everything from riding a tricycle to walking on the moon. Navigating a custom-built motorcycle to Mexico falls somewhere between both endeavors, and feels more personally liberating than either one of them.

Given its proximity to San Diego—one of the most culturally diverse and affluent cities in America—one might assume Mexico’s Baja peninsula to be similarly urbane. Nothing could be further from the truth. To a cynic raised on air conditioning, Netflix and 2-for-20 meal deals at Applebee’s, Baja is a greasy quesadilla on the Taco Bell bargain menu of life. Something to avoid at all costs, like an ironhead basket case or jail time.

For a hardy few, California’s southern neighbor is the final frontier, a place too raw and uninviting to ever be spoiled by the greedy hands of capitalism. Many have tried, but for reasons dulled by the sands of time, every attempt to gentrify or monetize Baja dies a slow death, leaving nothing but sunbaked corpses of twisted rebar and cinder block on its dusty shores.

Of course, some shining examples of crass commercialism do thrive in Baja—Sammy Hagar’s Cabo Wabo comes to mind—but most of the whistle stops along Baja’s 1,500 miles of cratered two-lane look like postcards from Hell.

Gutted automotive cadavers litter Baja’s landscape like empty brass at a shooting gallery, their bald tires upcycled into picket fences by resourceful Mexicans faster than you can translate “Hand me a lug wrench” on Google. To be clear, Baja is treacherous. Enter her maw foolhardy or cocksure and she’ll chew you up like a dollar taco. Come with eyes and mind wide open and Baja will embrace you like a drunk cousin. This is the Mexico hundreds of Diablo Runners know and love, and Biltwell’s spiritual home.

2019 el diablo run You don’t have to be blind drunk or brain damaged to enjoy Baja by motorcycle, but it sure helps. Of course, not everyone on the El Diablo Run is a raging alcoholic.

Plenty are wizard chasers, vegans, vagabonds or country morticians. If America is a melting pot, Mexico is a rusty hubcap over a dumpster fire filled with sizzling chunks of mystery meat from Satan’s own carniceria. Folks hungry for adventure don’t ask what’s cooking—they shovel it down with a warm tortilla and kill the flies with a squeeze of lime. When things get too hot to handle, they douse the fire with another cold beer. If that sounds like a recipe for good times, you’ve come to the right kitchen.

Hard-core fans of Baja—natives, tourists and ex-pats alike—share an abiding passion for the place, and will enthusiastically raise a glass to its spirit at the drop of a sombrero. Of course, one question every Baja visitor must ask himself is, where do I draw the line? If five beers get you lucky and ten get you arrested, how many to light your hair on fire? Burn E-D-R into your ass with a branding iron? How many tequila shots to tattoo a fish taco behind your ear? Throw a stick of dynamite into your best friend’s tent? Battle 23 other idiots with a Whiffle bat? These aren’t urban myths or hazing rituals—they’re the stuff El Diablo legends are made of.

Show Class magazine has covered the grass-roots custom motorcycle scene for a decade, and we’ve supported the little chopper ‘zine from day one. A few years ago, we collaborated with editors of the periodical to shine a light on custom choppers designed by talented but lesser-known home builders from across America. Dubbed The People’s Champ, the winner of these shows has earned a place among the invited builders at Born-Free, America’s premier custom motorcycle show hosted every year in Orange County, California.

2019 people’s champ

In early 2019, Show Class magazine decided to close the doors on their working-man’s motorcycle magazine. Not wanting their blue-collar bike show to just fade away, they asked us to take the keys to People’s Champ and ride it home. By adding resources and asking our network of grass-roots oriented sponsors to chip in to an already popular event, the new-and-improved Biltwell People’s Champ Bike Show at Cook’s Corner kick-started the 2019 BornFree weekend with a bang.

To initiate the switch, last winter Show Class gave us a list of 25 participants and said, “Good luck!” After setting some guidelines and deadlines, we posted photos and biographies from all 25 entrants on the Biltwell blog for global voting. From this batch, blog readers selected 13 semi-finalists. Five weeks later a second round of online polling occurred to pick “The Six Pack” finalists.

These builders got to showcase their completed machines at our People’s Champ pre-party at Cook’s Corner, the legendary biker bar down the street from the Born-Free entry gates. A vote by the people in attendance at that party decided the 2019 Biltwell People’s Champ.

The Biltwell People’s Champ Bike Show celebrates the workingclass heroes who toil unselfishly to make chopper building what it is. Future People’s Champ Bike Shows will introduce new, groundbreaking builders to the world chopper stage. Biltwell will always support the custom motorcycle scene, because DIY is in our DNA.

The Race Of Gentlemen

t h e fa s t e s t b e ac h o n e a rt h

The Race of Gentlemen taps into something emotional, something primal. It’s an escape from an increasingly mundane world, one being force-fed to us on Instagram and Facebook every day. TROG events are real, jarring, and stand tall on the strongest foundation extant: friendship. TROG is a weekend escape with late nights and early mornings, where practitioners laugh and yell while experiencing life and nature in the strangest way imaginable. It’s a reminder that admirable aspects of modern life are still alive and kicking, just like the old machines that keep everything churning for the men and women who assemble to enjoy The Race of Gentlemen experience.

In October of 2019, 20,000 spectators congregated on New Jersey’s Atlantic coast to watch pre- and post-WWII cars and motorcycles race on the sand of Wildwood Beach. What started initially as a weekend of frivolous fun has now grown into a fiveday event, with local businesses that support TROG benefitting from the explosive popularity the event now enjoys. Diversions at this year’s TROG included a pre-party, a swap meet, car and bike shows, live music, good eating, hard drinking, and much more. Of course, speed is what The Race of Gentlemen is all about, and racing started when the tide was right on Saturday morning. By Sunday, grinning gentlemen held trophies and Biltwell helmets high in an awards ceremony that looked like 1947 and 1967 gave birth to a time warp in the New Jersey sand.

Given TROG’s commitment to retro revivalism and vintage pedigree, it is an honor and source of great pride to be the Official Helmet sponsor for this special event.

Swingarm choppers aren’t everyone’s taste. Build one with a Crazy Frank’s fender and they become even more polarizing. This is exactly what inspired Biltwell GM Mike Ellis to craft his Snowflake. Without having to follow any standards for “period correctness,” Mike incorporated powerful brakes, modern rubber, decent lighting, and comfortable suspension to build a truly road-worthy shovelhead for long-distance adventures or two-up riding.

After finding a basket case for his project, Mike enlisted Rico at Hi-Bond Modified to sort out the motor and transmission. While Snowflake’s guts were on Father Fury’s workbench, Mike massaged his ratty Crazy Frank fender, adding a better sissy bar for reliability and passenger comfort. Other tweaks by Mike’s hand include the molded gas tank, custom pipes, and several clever custom bits Mike honed from a pile of DIY Biltwell parts and accessories. Of course, Rouser Rob helped Mike dial in his Snowflake’s driveline, wiring, and some final assembly. After getting the tins back from Pete at Hot Dog Customs, Mike finished the Snowflake just in time for Born-Free 2019, where his showstopper parked on the lawn with other Crazy Frank-inspired originals.

g e t o ut & s tay o u t onE mOTOrcyCLE. THrEE BAG S. A THOUSAnD mILES A DAy Every so often, Biltwell co-founder Bill Bryant conjures up a challenge to test his endurance. Call these adventures his mettle detector, if puns are your thing. Last year’s exercise in agony was a cross-country assault from SoCal to the Garden State on a 2018 Street Bob. Bill crushed those 3,000 miles in three days with the clothes on his back and his gear in three bags: an EXFIL-48 backpack, an EXFIL-11 tank bag and an EXFIL-7 utility bag. Some EXFIL straps allowed Bill to carry a bedroll and other essentials, but nothing fancy—to our salty leader, extravagance is a sign of weakness. After a brief stop in Iowa to pow wow with overlanding overachievers Yeti and Yolo, Bill twisted the stinker all the way to Kickstart Cycles in New Jersey, where he hooked up with Walter Gemeinhardt to do the Gypsy Run. With nothing left to prove, Bill grabbed the bug-splattered Exfil-48 as a single piece of carry-on, then flew home. Mission accomplished.

Built for bikeriders who pack light and move fast, our all-new EXFIL-60 boasts many of our larger bags’ construction and gear-hauling features, but with a lean silhouette for chopper-mounted minimalists. Three integrated cinch straps—two around the bag’s girth and one over the top— have reflective piping for enhanced nighttime visibility and reinforced nylon buckles for speedy mounting on sissy bars and back rests.

The hinged quick-release panel on EXFIL-60’s exterior features two weatherproof nylon buckles with adjustable straps to stow a bulky jacket or bedroll in seconds. This panel features a discrete outside pocket with waterproof zipper to hold documents, cell phones, and other essentials.

EXFIL-60’s ballistic nylon exterior features PVC coating for protection against harsh elements.

Bear Haughton has a day job. As owner and founder of OldBikeBarn.com, there’s never a shortage of shop-related shenanigans to keep our friend and serial entrepreneur busy. Of course, one job could never be enough for this grizzled dreamer. In his twenties, dangerous deployments with UN and NATO forces gave Bear a taste for adventure no dot-com chopper shop could satisfy, so a few years ago he partnered with Buddhi Singh—no stranger to two-wheeled excitement himself—to co-found Motorcycle Sherpa. Today Bear, Buddhi, and their team of pack runners lead thrillseeking motorcycle enthusiasts over some of the most treacherous terrain in the world.

Last October, warehouse warlock Patrick Lies, shop guru Rouser Rob, and team photographer Geoff Kowalchuk joined Bear and company on a 1,300-mile ride over the most lethal landscape any of the three Biltwell staffers had ever experienced. To put that hype into perspective, consider this: Rouser Rob has ridden from Montana to the Panama Canal on an XR400, the length of Viet Nam’s eastern seaboard on a 125cc scooter with his wife, and through a KOA in Colorado on a KTM200—crazy adventure is in his blood.

o nc e . in a lifetime.

Fifteen men and one woman joined Team Biltwell on Motorcycle Sherpa’s Nepalese death march last October, mostly motoindustry types with decades of two-wheeled experience… on pavement. None of these 18 brave souls could have imagined the treachery ahead of them on Nepal’s rocky mountain roads, some of which rose 15- to 18-thousand feet above sea level.

Salty cynics will say 1,300 miles in 11 days is a cake walk, but pro moto photographer Geoff Kowalchuk is eager to say it was anything but. “We did some really technical uphill riding where rain, rushing water, mudslides, head-sized boulders and sheer cliffs fought us every inch of the way on a dirt road barely wide enough for one car, but we were getting passed by buses heading in both directions. “I had so many ‘Oh shit!’ moments during this trip, it’s impossible to pinpoint the scariest one.”

After spending two weeks in the Himalayas and living to tell about it, Rob, Geoff and Patrick returned to Biltwell HQ , speechless. Pushed for a recap after his first Asian adventure, Patrick summed up our team’s Motorcycle Sherpa experience perfectly. “Every day was torture, with mind-blowing sights and smells around every corner. “Bear’s a pro who never left anyone for dead, but he didn’t spoil the adventure with too much information. What you get is the trip of a lifetime that’s magical and death-defying.”

c o nt ro l c e nt e r Tested for strength. Engineered for performance

We’ve always been confident in the strength and durability of our handlebars and risers. Now we have certification from a globally recognized test agency to prove it. TüV is Germany’s version of Underwriters Laboratories in America. Their test protocols are strict, consistent, and focus on durability and fitment. Today, TüV testing is voluntary. As Germany’s high standards continue to influence Europe’s push toward better safety for consumers, TüV will join the EU’s CE to become the standards of the world. Both certifications are already recognized more places in the world than any others.

After a year of physical testing, design review and procedural analysis, Germany awarded TüV verification to nearly 200 models and sizes of Biltwell bars and risers. As our already broad product line continues to grow, more Biltwell products will receive TüV verification. We see it as the best way possible to prove the quality and reliability of our high-performance cockpit components.

1-1/8-inch tapered, seamless 4130 chromoly

Tyson Bars For 2020 we added an 8-inch rise to our Tyson line, and fine-tuned some features for easier installation.

All Tyson bars now have CNC-machined slots where dimples once appeared. This makes installing stock H-D hand controls easier by letting the wire loom flow into the handlebar beneath the lever perches.

Of course, every Tyson handlebar meets Europe’s stringent TüV safety standard. Pro tip: if your Harley has Throttle-By-Wire technology, consider Tyson XL bars instead, which feature larger O.D. tubing than our Tyson bars to make internal wire routing possible.

Tyson XL Pullbacks

When we put ink to paper on our first Tyson XL prototype, we sought to build a range of feature-rich T-bars that aggressive V-twin stunt riders and fans of the club style could rely on for all their high-speed endeavors. This year’s Tyson XL line has grown substantially, with an 8-inch-rise model and four new pullback sizes available. Every Tyson XL bar meets rigid TüV standards for strength. This comfortable, bulletproof 4130 chromoly bar boasts an oversized 1-1/8-inch four-bend crossbar that tapers to one inch on both ends to accept all stock and select aftermarket Harley hand controls.

Flex is the enemy. murdock risers have your back

Harley-Davidsons are stout machines, with gobs of torque and horsepower to move their considerable mass at triple-digit speeds. Murdock risers are built tough for aggressive, high-speed riding. The vertical uprights on every Murdock riser are 1-inch O.D. x 0.120” wall seamless 4130 chromoly—virtually bulletproof. These tubes are TIG welded to an investment-cast steel handlebar clamp and two CNC-machined mounting bungs to create an incredibly strong one-piece riser that fits practically any fork tree with mounting holes on 3.5-inch centers.

Two years ago, The Motor Company introduced a new, super-clean digital dash module on select ‘18-up Softails. We dug this high-tech innovation on debut, but knew it would pose a challenge for modern Softail owners who wanted to upgrade their machines with Biltwell risers or T-bars. Our Billet Dash for ‘18-up Softails clamps securely around the vertical uprights on every Murdock riser or T-bar to provide a clean solution for what could have been a messy situation.

Some of the very first parts to bear our name were solo seats for choppers and bolt-on seats for Harley Sportsters. Fourteen years later, nothing’s changed. Today we offer five solo seats in a range of shapes, widths and profiles that add comfort and style to any rigid chopper you can imagine. These seats feature heavy-duty steel pans, molded urethane foam padding and hand-stitched covers, or you can get them raw for custom leatherwork or upholstery. Our Sportster bolt-on seats are available in a range of solo and 2-up styles to fit H-D XLs from ‘86 to 2020.

Tech features on our stylish replacement include a proven molded ABS pan, steel mounting tabs and molded polyurethane foam. Fits 2010 and later XL’s.

While the budgets, tastes and needs of modern motorcyclers have evolved considerably since we got in the game, our commitment to home and pro bike builders is as strong as it was when Bill and McGoo founded Biltwell in 2006. So long as there are folks who prefer to live with dirt on their hands and grease on their jeans, we will make taillights, foot pegs, throttles, grips and an eclectic range of DIY parts and accessories to keep wrenches spinning in garages and garden sheds everywhere.

Rubber foot pegs were all the rage in the ‘60s, and now they’re back. Biltwell Norman peg cribs their style from Bates pegs, but utilize our cast clevis and machined alloy core to improve fitment and increase durability. Black PVC peg is super durable, yet soft enough to isolate vibration and provide traction.

Many modern Dyna riders have two-wheeled roots unknown to old players in the upgrade game, in places like motocross, mountain biking and BMX. If you cultivated your riding style and performance needs in these realms, your feet will feel right at home on a pair of Punisher pegs. Billet 6061 T-6 aluminum construction ensures our first foot peg designed expressly for Dynas and 2018-up Softails delivers the strength required for aggressive riding. Stainless-steel traction pins on the peg’s perimeter provide enough bite for boots and skate shoes without feeling so sticky you can’t move your feet. Investment-cast chromoly clevises are infinitely adjustable on a 360-degree arch so you can fine-tune peg angle for comfort. The Punisher is available in the broadest fitment range we’ve ever offered, and offers clevis styles for 2018-up Softail for rider and passenger as well as standard H-D clevises for older model-year Hogs. Available in two sizes and two finishes.

After storming to the bottom of Baja on our raceprepped Frijole XL883 in the 2018 NORRA 1000, Barnacle Bill and Biltwell factory wrench Rouser Rob inventoried the scraps from Team Biltwell’s historic assault. What they found were enough highperformance spare parts to build a second H-D desert sled, this one even faster and more powerful than its battle-tested predecessor.

Having already learned what worked and what didn’t through trial and error on Frijole numero uno, Rob and Bill needed just four weeks to complete this build. Upgrades compared to the OG Frijole were significant, and included a 1250 kit and hotter cam from S&S; a smaller, more unique aluminum tank and Lowbrow rear fender; street-legal lights and miscellaneous other high-perf tidbits. Because he wasn’t building this bike to survive the backroads of Baja, Rob invested more time in aesthetics. Jet Hot coating on the custom two-into-one exhaust was a nice touch, as were the Cerakote fender, fork shrouds and rocker box covers. Spray gun legend “Hot Dog” Pete drew inspiration from these matte grey components to give the tins an earthy, retro race livery. The finished machine looks speedy standing still, but in an elegant, grown-up fashion. Bravo, Hot Dog. Like every Rouser Rob creation, the Spare Parts Sporty rides as tight as she looks, with nary a wiggle or squeak—at least none until our friend and local MX pro Ricky Yorks thrashed it on a private MX track near Biltwell HQ. Now the Spare Parts Sporty looks like every other dirt bike—bruised and battered from too much fun, ready to rip at the drop of a flag or the switch of a traffic light.

Last year, Biltwell customers across the pond asked for two new glove models, each with CE safety certification. The EU’s strict standard for glove fit, impact attenuation and wear resistance is similar to their ECE R22.05 helmet protocol, and ensures the gear you wear offers both protection and style. While our CE-certified Belden and Borrego gloves share the same silhouette, each one boasts different features and materials to ensure great protection in hot or cold riding conditions. If your riding gear requirements are less demanding, our Bantam and Work gloves do their jobs nicely. Both models feature leather construction and smartly integrated synthetic materials to improve ventilation and comfort. The full synthetic Moto glove is our #1 seller, and this year it’s been fortified at key stress points to improve reliability.

We approach apparel design the same way we make parts and accessories for your motorcycle. Clean and simple, with the focus on quality and style. Biltwell hats, hoodies, sweatshirts, and accessories look as good in the bar as they do on the bike. Nothing in our 2020 collection screams, “Crazy biker!” and that’s just the way we like it. Nothing but comfortable cotton, functional silhouettes, strong seams, soft screenprinted graphics and subtle Biltwell branding to set you and your new favorite kit from the vanilla crowd.

Whether you’re a hard-core overlander, an over-achieving underlander, or just a proud American who curates a CJ7 album on Pinterest, you’ve probably heard of Yeti and Yolo.

If you haven’t, grab some Google and an MRE and give yourself a crash course in living the off-grid good life in a V8 Jeep. A few years ago, Yeti—a grizzled master fabricator and wilderness thrill seeker—and Yolo—his equally talented and breathtaking lady wolf—lived 500-plus days in Yeti’s up-armor JK, blogging every buck steak, blizzard and bear attack along their way. The adventure should have killed them. It only made them—and the folks who followed their every move on Instagram—stronger. One of those followers was Biltwell co-founder and brand manager Bill Bryant—no novice in the survival game, either.

Duly impressed with Yeti’s moxie and mechanical fortitude, Bill pitched to his friend and fellow road warrior an idea for Biltwell’s most outlandish motorcycle adventure yet: a frigid ride to the Arctic Circle on choppers with Yeti and Yolo running chase in a heavily modified Light Medium Tactical Vehicle—LMTV in USMC parlance. Bill’s thickest, hairiest, wild hair yet sets sail this August, and hopefully returns through British Columbia before first major snowfall.

Of course, no adventure this ambitious could be possible without serious support. Drag Specialties and Metzeler Motorcycle Tires have agreed to bring heat to our iciest adventure yet. Anything Operation Numb Nuts lacks for good sense will be far outweighed by the good times.

Follow the adventures of Biltwell, Yeti, Yolo, and the whole #OperationNumbNuts crew on Instagram.

yo u a r e g o I n g t o d o w h at ?

If you think Yeti’s custom off-road builds are tasty, you should try his boar bacon-wrapped venison steaks

It’s hard to call these friends “sponsors” when the term “enablers” might be more fitting.

So, huge thanks to these guys for believing in our silly dreams and helping them come true.
