DARYL’S BIKE
Price On Request DARYL’S BIKEThe year 2014 is one we won’t soon forget here at Classified Moto. First we built a custom XV920R for the amazing Norman Reedus. Then he introduced us to creative powerhouse Scott M. Gimple who was looking for a custom bike for the show he runs — maybe you’ve heard of it — AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” We’ve got love for all things post-apocalyptic and have been avid fans of the show from the get-go. So when Scott said he wanted us to build a bike to replace Daryl Dixon’s lost chopper, we thought we had died, then turned, then died again, then gone to heaven. The project entailed creating two identical bikes to accommodate production needs. Pictured is one of them. Or maybe both. Hard to say. They’re identical. The project required all hands on deck for a short, frantic time. And we have our vendors (below) — and very patient current customers — to thank for being exceptionally fantastic and understanding.

SHREVEPORT SLAMMER
Price On Request SHREVEPORT SLAMMERPerhaps our penultimate XV920R, this all-business little muscle bike will call Shreveport, Louisiana home. Built for custom 4×4 guru Wes Malmay, the 1982 chain drive XV features a first for us — a stock swing arm fitted with a 1990s CB750 Nighthawk rear wheel. In my opinion the stock XV rear wheel is not fit for...

SUPERSTRADA II
Price On Request SUPERSTRADA IIWhen we built the original SuperStrada for our friend Ricky Lu a few years back, we had no idea the splash it would make. Ok we kinda felt in our bones it was special. After turning down quite a few requests for exact replicas, we agreed to build a close approximation for Floridian Mark Fowler. It...

FREE RANGE 920
Price On Request FREE RANGE 920Our love affair with the admittedly uncool Yamaha XV has come to an amicable end. I don’t see us buying up any more of them for Classification, but the last few in the line have been kind of a blast. Like this one. Built for Kristian Niemi — an amazing chef and owner of BOURBON...

BW650
Price On Request BW650When we design and build bikes, we rarely do it to make a statement. There’s a little bit of a statement with this one. The goal was to build something to delight ourselves and infuriate armchair builders with its very presence. A secondary goal was to make the bike handle predictably and safely so as to allow...

Price On Request CB836-CMBob Ranew was our first customer. And we’re lucky. He’s been with us through all our growing pains, relocations and big breaks. He came up with our logos and has lent his designer’s touch to our little company on many an occasion. Perhaps his most noble act is letting me have free rein when designing his latest...

XV920R AVIATOR
Price On Request XV920R AVIATORFlorida pilot Camilo Saiz is the first man on the planet to own a Classified Moto XV920R equipped with a single-sided swing arm. Hard to believe, since we’ve built so many XVs and so many bikes with single-siders, but alas, it’s true. Camilo wanted the seat as low as possible, so we came up with a...

FIVE-O 1000
Price On Request FIVE-O 1000Calling this one the “Five-O 1000” is maybe low-hanging fruit, but owner Ron Belfort lives in Hawaii where he does exciting things, and we are envious. Now add to the list carving up the roads of Oahu. Waaaaahooo! The bike is a 2013 GSX-R1000 which looked pretty menacing in stock trim. It just wasn’t really floating...
