You enjoy the motorcycle construction but you dread the inspection?

If you leave the structural work to us, we will provide the matching, correct and official registration certificate.

So many people, so many styles. The tastes of the customers vary widely and that is a new challenge for us every time.

At the moment we have two that can’t be more opposite of each other, a Highneck with all tubes in a curved shape and a race model with a set of Japanese wheels and up-side down fork with custom triple trees.

It’s winter time again, a perfect time to build.

So many people, so many wishes. The first frame is for a Belgian customer who has a Sportster block laying around. We will supply the racing wheels, the upside-down fork with plates and give it a little bit of shaping.

The second frame is for the Dyna donor and goes to France.

The latter are for the Evo with 5 gears in a Highneck version on hardtail and softail basis.

A few years ago, Thierry, Swiss native now living in Hong Kong, dropped by L&L while working as a pilot. After a good conversation, he went home in the plane with a frame and parts.

“For the story of the bike, I bought all the parts from you guys in the shop on my layovers in AMS. Flew them back myself as a pilot in my plane from AMS to HKG. 

The bike was all built in my living room in my house in Hong Kong, and parts fabricated by hand by myself on my mini lathe, mini mill and TIG welder in my small 8m2 shop on the roof top of the house.

I had no prior mechanical skills or knowledge  and learnt all the skills from watching You Tube and reading books.

Parts like the oil tank are made from 2 recycled fire extinguishers cut in half and welded together. Many parts are fabricated from raw steel and designed by myself.”

We are now one step further in the construction process of the Boardtracker.

The petrol tank is matched to the pump because it is a petrol injection engine block. Furthermore, the rear wheel is aligned and by customizing the chain we also know the position, this is necessary to make the fixings on the mudguard.

The customer Pieter has opted for a mudguard with a short appearance.

Time for an update on Yuri’s Swedish Chopper. The pulley and brake disc have been measured and just made. The wheel is aligned and the length of the belt is determined so that we know the position of the wheel.

The disc is behind the pullover to keep the view side of the Chopper as bare as possible, less is more! The next step is to determine the position of the caliper and shape the fender.

We will keep you informed about the progress!

This week we found a few projects in our archive that are not yet on the site, but that we don’t want to keep from you!

Customer Joost has purchased a donor Sportster with a Bobber Attackkit, but was too busy and had not yet started the project seriously.

With the help of L&L most of the donor parts have been processed in the Bobber, but a few new parts have also been used. L&L did the construction work, had the Bobber inspected and arranged the registration number. The frame is powder coated, but otherwise remained rough because Joost has not decided on the further finish.

The Bobber is delivered roadworthy, so who knows, the inspiration might come during a ride!

This Bobber from Jeroen stands for minimizing but getting maximum enjoyment.

In his new home, he has pushed aside the moving boxes in the garage, to make room for this new acquisition.

The first ride goes to Alphen aan de Rijn. With this weather… what more could a person want?
