Built by Jeff Veraldi, this custom BMW K100 cafe racer looks great and served as a bit of therapy for him – unfortunately he burst a vertebrae in an off-road truck race and almost was paralyzed during the build. Finishing this bike became part of his “physical, occupational, and mental therapy”.
1979 Harley-Davidson XLCR Custom
I’ve featured plenty of XLCR’s in the past, as I find them to be such an interesting departure from what one would normally expect from Harley.
