They started to work soon on vintage motorcycles because they love these old pieces of metal and it`s not only a lifestyle product or a commercial vehicle to them, it’s a functional piece of art. Trying to find a compromise between usability and design with each motorcycle they build is very important to them. They love the challenge of building motorcycles that are both; nice to ride and beautiful to look at which is not too easy with the legislation in Austria.
They love to keep their designs minimalistic, they rebuild all kind of
motorcycles, brands and year of construction.
About Vagabund’s V02 1972 Honda CB450 K5 Cafe Racer
A building developed in line with a brief clean line and a minimalist finish, with everything considered unnecessary to be removed and the necessary part which is not clean and well-integrated.
After being stripped bare, the bike was equipped with a wheel hugger number plate mount that doubles as a fender and small LED indicators and brake light to keep the tail end clean.
Other stylish features include CNC built grips wrapped in brown leather with bar end indicators, a small dial and internally operating wiring that adds to its minimal finish.
A Brooks tool bag hangs off the bike frame for a touch of vintage cool, and an industry-inspired paint scheme brushed-bare metal-clear powder coated, with moss green and some brass and gold connects everything beautifully.
