So I had good intentions to keep the blog updated regularly, but I've been a slack ass about it. For good reason though. Been a busy couple weeks in the shop. I won't complain about that. Been working on everything from $40K Borget Customs to tuned up CRF50's to Chinese scooters. I hate scooters BTW. Money is money and we all need it, but I find scooters soulless and evil. I'll save that rant for another day. Couple of neat projects in the works though. The Savage Brat is getting some more custom work that is turning out well. Also have 2 CB750's sitting in the shop for a resto mod project. Pics and updates to follow soon. On the web side of StreetKORE. The new online store is coming together slowly. It's a lot of work getting everything uploaded and sorted out. The Blog will see more attention now. There's some stuff in the works that I'm eager to share. Stay tuned.

Saturday Night Specials
Bringing back the Saturday Night Specials. When I had the original StreetKORE Blog every Saturday would feature 3 unique bikes that really stood out in design, engineering and aesthetics. I'll continue that tradition here.
RAD Ducati inspired.
RAU Framed XJR1200. Love This bike. Simple and sexy.
FAUX Joe's GSXR1100.

Savage Brat
Project for my buddy Little Mikey. He scored a deal on this very clean example of an 88 Suzuki Savage 650. It was in a 9 out of 10 condition. He rode it around for a few days and then we got the motivation to chop it up. Brat inspired styling cues and a $0 budget for mods. Rear was lowered 2 inches by moving the lower shock mounts, rear fender from a CB400T that was leftover from his Cafe project, I welded up some funky narrow T bars from an old Drag bar that was floating around. Quick tune up and a couple hours reading through www.SuzukiSavage.com for some no cost tuning mods got it running right. Great little bike to bomb around town on. Makes me want one for myself, lol. Still a work in progress. Updates to come.
Dueling XS projects
StreetKORE project bikes dueling for my attention. A pair of custom built XS650's in various states of build. Updates will be forth coming here from now on. Stay tuned.

Let the Blogging Begin
When StreetKORE first started it began as a very simple blog that I started throwing up cool bikes and stories just to contribute to the streetfighter community and not feel like all my time spent online was pointless. That was 3 years ago. Here we are again, firing up another blog with roughly the same intent, but hopefully a little bit more focus. The basic idea this time around, try and keep the goings on around StreetKORE a bit more up to date. Throw in some random happenings from time to time. Still keep a full content list of killer machines and cool motorcycle related stuff. And whatever random goofy stuff seems to fit in the course of a week. So here we go. Be sure to join and follow along. There's plenty of projects in the works back in the shop, More parts, and clothing coming down the pipe, Memory cards full of pics and hard drives full of bikes that defiantly deserve more exposure.
