Top 10 Restomods of 2024

Vintage Bones, Modern Tech: BikeBound’s Top 10 Restomod Motorcycles of 2024…  

In recent years, we’ve been happy to watch restomod builds gain more and more traction. Generally, we consider restomods to be vintage bikes that remain relatively true to their original aesthetics and silhouette, but have been brought into the 21st century with upgraded suspension, brakes, wheels, tires, and engine management / performance.

At one time, we saw the the restomod treatement mainly applied to vintage superbikes, such as the builds of AC Sanctuary and dB Customs. However, builders have been branching out, and now it’s not uncommon to see resto-modded dirt bikes, dual sports, and adventure bikes — some of which made our list.

Below is our list of the Top 10 Restomods we featured in 2024, based on traffic and engagement. This is objective, data-driven list, with builds shown in alphabetical order by builder. Here’s to more great restomods in 2025!
