Eric Clapton Tribute Bike
1/22/2009 05:56:00 PM
A low rumble of Harley-engined motorcycles fills the air adding to the distinctive thunder of V-8 motors that make the tarmac shake. Greased Bikers, sitting atop their Triumphs, Norton’s and Beezer`s, stand guard outside, cigarette coolly angled in the mouth - and this isn’t a Hollywood movie! Fact is: It's September 2006 and reality. At the Ace Café in London, one of the most scenic and historic Biker Cafés ever -thus the perfect location to present th
e latest creation of Austrian Custom-Pro Penz Custombikes: The „Eric Clapton Tribute“ Bike. Already in the afternoon, the Ace is crowded with more bikers than ever were shown in the movie „Easy Rider“. For the press photo shooting of the Chopper, even the very last seat was occupied. The stage of the Ace is acting as the studio-location - here, pop-music legends such as Graham Fenton and his band Matchbox, former F-1 driver Damon Hill andothers performed „live“ on stage. What more can you want for a cool presentation?
Ready for the Party
The jukebox is hammering the chords and riffs of Gene Vincent, the Stray Ca
ts and - of course - Eric Clapton, when the new owner of the bike entered the Ace. It was really hard to convince him not to peek under the cover - patience is not a major quality of the „One-percenter“ for sure. But somehow Peter and Anita do the job. It's 8 p.m. - and the Ace crowded beyond imagination, with 200+ Harleys parked outside along the former North Circular Road. Time to lift the secret. Future owner Martin, who usually does not drink any alcohol, was calmed down with a few pints - and the presentation was ready to rock! Listening to the Rock-classics of Eric Clapton, a model anced around the bike, uncovering more and more of the long legged Chopper creation, painted all over with images of Eric Clapton's career - which was the moment that the otherwise cool and controlled owner lost composure, sinking down from 2 meters height to his knees to check out his new „baby“! But the surprises weren't all over yet: As the crowd split, there were some old friends from Austria and even his parents joining in, necessitating the use of sunglasses! The scene was beyond description - everybody wanted a first glimpse of the chopper and a picture with bike and model. The stage was packed! Just as Martin, who has saved money for his ride for no less than 3 years, was handed over the key by Peter Penzenstadler, the stage wascleared again and order was reinstated. With one push at the button, the engine fired immediately and the BSL-Penz exhaust system announced it with a roar that made any '76 Punkrock Band sound like Cat Stevens! Even Marc Wilsmore, owner of the ACE and himself a living legend already, took the time to attend the presentation, adding a thoughtful nod and the
ultimate canonisation: „It is real Rock`n Roll“! Thank's to Britain’s laws, it's still „last call“ at 11 p.m. but almost midnight when everybody cleared the Ace. Back in the good ol' days, it would've
been time for some illegal race activity...
The Day after
Next morning, as the sun rises into the London sky, the time is just right to get a British breakfast at the ACE - and Martin can take a look onto his future ride in daylight: The machine, for which he had worked the last 3 years, has finally materialised as a rolling artwork in metal, paint and chrome. The dedicated, if not fanatic, fan of Eric Clapton, who hardly misses a concert remembers his first telephone call to Austria, when he asked Anita for the specifications and details on building an original Penz Chopper, followed by a first visit to meet the Penz team.
During the construction of frame and bodywork, he would have placed his sleeping bag beside the workbench, if Peter would have allowed it. Now - his view clear again after several good Ale`s yesterday, he checks out his ride to the very last detail: The 8 Inch higher 3 Inch stretched „Evil Spirit“ frame, holding a long stretched 24-Inch-over SJP fork. Metal-made tank and fenders feature Marcus Pfeil's almost photo-realistic airbrush-art. The image looks like „Old
Slowhand“ himself had posed for the 2-dimensional masterpiece. A lot of small details like clef's on the frame and Clapton's record titles on the open belt drive are just a few „extras“ that make the bike to what it is: A real tribute to Eric Clapton.
Ready to ride
Once again encircled by a crowd, Martin turns the key and pushes the button: The 1.550cc Twin Cam engine rumbles to life! Gripping the chromed CCE controls, the clutch disconnects the open BDL „Top Fuel Street Drive“ primary drive, originally developed for the Drag-scene. His biker-boots step onto the black SJP forward controls, kicking in the first of 6 gears Baker Right Side Drive gearbox. Sunglasses adjusted, one last look to the Ace - and the huge 300 rubber, rotating on a 10,5”x18'' Speed-point wheel gets his first spin on English tarmac. Time for a test ride on the „wrong side of the road“. A wide grin on his face, the first roundabout is mastered with ease, leaving behind a stunned crowd that just couldn't believe that a bike that long can handle with such ease! Despite the relaxed attitude of the London coppers, it's not long before
Martin got stopped: But it wasn't for the Austrian „test ride“ license plate, the Bobby just wanted to inspect the bike for himself: „Damn, what a nice Bike“, is his comment - and Martin is back on the road. Spring and Summer 2007 we will see Martin more often on the road. Even after the first 100 k's he admires the ride ability: „This ain't a trailer queen or Hollywood cruiser - this ride really ROCKS! Just like
„Old Slowhand“...

Hulster 8 Valve, Home Made 8 Katup
1/22/2009 11:18:00 AMPeraih Juara III tahun 2006 dengan Exos Lucius ini menginginkan motor tersebut tampil ramping dan pendek. Sehingga sprocket belakang dipasang di luar frame. Guna mendapatkan motor pendek, transmisi mencomot milik Norton. Dasar mesin HD knucklehead. Karburator sumbangan Amal Gp. Stelllan membuat sendiri silinder Hulster. Kepala silinder tipe semi radial dengan 4 valve.
Rockers atau pelatuk katup dibentuk dari lempengan Weldox 900 setebal 15 mm. Rods dan piston dari S & S. Jeroan mesin dilapisi bahan khusus castotig. Dudukan mesin dan transmisi terintegrasi dengan tangki pelumas. Garpu mengambil gaya klasik springer dilengkapi pengaturan kekerasan.
Awalnya semua orang menyangsikan kemampuan berlarinya di jalan, namun mereka sangat mengagumi sebagai sebuah karya seni. ’’Nyatanya saat pertama kali aku menghidupkan mesin, ia langsung melaju sangat baik,” ujar Stellan bangga. Performa mesin Hulster 8 valve dapat disaksikan dalam video singkat di situs SE Service. Selain menjadi jawara AMD World Championship Of Custom Bike Building, Hulster 8 valve juga meraih juara pada Classic Custom Bikes Show 2007, The Jurys Choice Scandinavian Championship Custom Bike Show 2007 dan Peoples Choice Custom Bike Show 2007.

The Time Machine, Custom Matik Nan Klasik
1/19/2009 04:42:00 PM
tipe builder yang mengikuti fashion dan terpengaruh trend yang ada,’’ ujar Sapka mengenai karya-karyanya. Ide awal pembuatan custom berdasarkan pemikiran, sebuah komponen merupakan pelengkap komponen lain. Sehingga tidak akan ditemui, ada komponen yang tidak sejalan dengan konsep motor.Julukan custom yang kelar digarap sekitar 6 bulan ini berasal dari buku H.G.Wells, The Time Machine. Tema custom yang dikembangkan builder Hongaria tergolong unik. Sebab pengaruh dari style Amerika dan gaya Eropa berpadu di wilayah Barat Eropa ini. Sang pemilik Újhelyi László, menginginkan kombinasi teknologi modern dan lawas. Hal ini diterjemahkan Sapka dengan mengaplikasikan roda yang tampak dari kayu dan 20 inchi ban dengan striping putih. Sedangkan dari masa kini, diwakili transmisi automatic. Menurut builder yang melahirkan karya pertamanya pada usia 15 tahun ini, semua komponen sudah ada di tahun 1920an, kecuali transmisi matic.
Metode menghidupkan mesin beda dengan motor kebanyakan. Tuas kick starter, berganti dengan tuas yang digerakkan dengan tangan. Ketika mesin hidup, kompresor diak
tifkan oleh dynamo shaft. Kemudian udara dipompakan ke frame guna mengaktifkan air suspension. Motor pun terangkat dan secara otomatis, transmisi menunjuk ke mode ‘drive’.Lampu depan sumbangan dari Carello Fratelli dan lampu belakang dari Blackburne. Kaki depan The Time Machine dikawal Sapka Muvek AIR-BONE single sided arm. Detail finishing meliputi kaca pembesar di gearshifter, kompas di tangki BBM. ‘’Ide pengerjaan memang dari saya, namun proyekmini tidak akan selesai tanpa dukungan kreatif Istvans, ‘’ tandas Sapka merendah.
Kerja keras ini tidak sia-sia, terbukti pada gelaran 2007 European Championship of Custom Bike Building di Mainz Jerman, 24-25 Maret, The Time Machine menyabet juara pertama. Menyisihkan 107 peserta lain wakil dari 18 negara. (*)

Esox Lucius, Jawara Eropa Tampil Telanjang
1/19/2009 02:58:00 PM
a pada gelaran The European Championship Of Custom Bike Building 2006 di Mainz, Jerman. Custom lansiran SE Services, Swedia ini terlihat telanjang apa adanya. ''Tidak ada yang saya tutup-tutupi. Semua bagian motor terlihat apa adanya. Itulah yang saya suka dari motor. Kita dapat melihat semua part bekerja sesuai fungsinya,'' papar Stellan.Keunikan custom yang satu ini tampak pada aplikasi komponen yang bukan dari sepeda motor tetapi dari H
otrods. Fender depan dari ornamen atap mobil tahun 1940-an, berbahan aluminum setebal 2 mm. Fuel level gauge pada tangki bahan bakar dari Ford 1930. Ford keluaran 1938 menyumbang pedal kopling dan sidestand. Tangki oli diadaptasi dari rumah Scot Supercharger. Kaki-kaki aplikasikan velg magnesium 12 jari dari roda depan mobil drag tahun 1960-an dengan tipe American Racing.Semua komponen handmade merupakan prakarya Stellan dan David `Drusse`Månson. Sedangkan ide desain dan detail Esox Lucius merupakan keroyokan Stellan, Michael
Hallgren, Mrs Stellan dan Drusse. Pembuatan Exos Lucius, memakan waktu empat bulan, dimulai dari November 2005. Drusse memberikan kontribusi terbesar dalam membangun custom ini. Pengerjaannya hanya pada malam hari dan saat libur akhir pekan. Total, Drusse menghabiskan 220 jam kerja, sedangkan Stellan 508 jam. (*)Spesifikasi

Phew… This bike’s history is heavily “charged” with Battistinis past antics and history; good, bad and, sometimes, very, very ugly… Indeed, it was named after the poignantly titled Jagger – Richards rendering to commemorate Dean Battistini’s fatal accident in the French Alps the year before (RiP)

Relaxed Atmosphere
1/08/2009 03:42:00 PM
Kontes custom itu merupakan bagian dari Daytona BikeWeek yang melibatkan 300-an custom yang dinilai juri-juri ahli diketuai Tony Masaro. Pada kategori Biker Build-Off, pengunjung yang didaulat menentukan pemenang. Dari 10.000 pengunjung, ternyata memilih Relaxed Atmosphere. Custom rapi jali dengan desain low dan elegan ini tampil sempurna di desain dan performansi. Biasanya, Anita dan Peter bekerja di bawah tekanan dead line pelanggan. Untuk custom ini, mereka bekerja penuh ketenangan dan dalam atmosfer relaks. Dari situlah Relaxed Atmosphere dipilih jadi nama custom yang ditawarkan sekitar 70 ribu Euro.
Didukung mesin lansiran Rev Tech 1801 CC yang mampu memuntahkan power 81,58 Hp. BBM yang disuplai dari tangki kreasi Penz dikabutkan dengan udara bersih saringan dari air cleaner Kuryakyn. Perangkat karburasi dipercayakan pada Mikuni HSR 45. Soal pengapian disumbang Rev Tech solid-state Ignition. Tenaga badak ini diteruskan transmisi enam percepatan milik Rev Tech ke roda belakang. Anita Kohler owner Penz Custom Bikes menjelaskan, custom itu desainnya dari Flash-Style frame produksi Penz Custombikes. ''Ground clereance rancangan Peter cukup tinggi untuk melampaui jalan-jalan pegunungan di Austria,'' tegas builder yang juga pilot ini. (*)
