Handbuilt Show 2019: Scramblers & Trackers

Handbuilt-Show-2019-Scramblers-Trackers

The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show is one of our favorite custom motorcycle shows on the planet. Created and hosted by Revival Cycles, the show aims to revive a culture of physical craftsmanship:

“The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show is an inspiring showcase of works from builders and craftsmen that combine knowledge, skill, and ingenuity to create one-of-a-kind truly hand-built machines…It is our vision that those that visit The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show will be inspired to pick up tools and use their hands to make something of their own.”

The 2019 show, hosted by Revival Cycles and BMW Motorrad USA, took place at the Austin American Statesman venue, where more than 150 bikes were on display. Below, we list some of our favorite scramblers, trackers, and adventure bikes from the show. All photos courtesy of Brandon LaJoie / Revival Cycles / Handbuilt Show.

  1. – That Sportster “Overlandr” was insane! The choice of tank really changed the profile of the bike.
    – The KZ400 “Swap Rat” is super cool. Really nice inspiration since I’m working with my buddy on his KZ440 right now.
    – That Triumph “72” looked ready for the track. Really, really clean build.
    – The RE “Scramble 650” is pure class. Looks factory fresh and ready for the town.

    Not a bad bike in the bunch really. I feel like this was one of the better ones I’ve seen as I make my way through the archives. Thanks for showcasing this!
