We build bikes that leave indelible impressions. Tattoo Moto was created from the need to make ordinary bikes into inspired, unique machines. Born in Tattoo Projects ad agency, Tattoo Moto applies the same principals of creative strategy and showmanship to customs as we do to making creative brand campaigns for our clients. Any given day at Tattoo, bikes are being built alongside tv spots, digital campaigns, print ads, and package design. This kind of creative influence produces bikes with an unusual and memorable style. We thrive on re-imagining bikes and transforming them into statement pieces – they must first move a rider emotionally, before moving them physically. A lower stance. A stretched swing arm. A better-proportioned profile. Fatter tires. Gnarlier tires. Powder coating. Exhausts you can feel in the pit of your stomach. Bad-*** seats. From a slight tweak or tuck, to a full-blown tear-down and rebirth, we do the right stuff to bring out the soul of the bike. We started out with a nice, clean /5. First thing we did was replace those persnickety Bing carbs with some Makunis and the OEM exhaust with Moto GP's, so this motor could breathe. Next we tore off the sub-frame and fabbed up a new one, high and tight and added a custom leather seat. Slid the shock mounts up and strapped on a set of 15” Ohlins to give this bike a little more travel, then we called our friends at RaceTech and ordered up some new fork springs and did a complete rebuild on the front end.  We wired this bike up with an M-Unit control box and cleaned up the wiring harness. The instrument cluster was refurbished by Overseas Speedo and the headlight bucket and mounts have been powder-coated gloss black - Renthal bars and leather Brooks bicycle grips finish off the cockpit of this kick *** Beemer.  Boxer Metal did a killer job on the rims and hubs with gloss black powder coating and then laced them up with stainless steel spokes and we wrapped them in some nice Continental dual sport tires. This bike is a daily and it's a blast to ride. Provided you can avoid all the folks who will want to talk your face off about how kick *** of a bike it is!!
