EB001 – 1971 Honda CB350

Price On Request Introducing Ellaspede '001', 1971 Honda CB350.We have chosen to steer away from the conventional café racer conversion, instead creating a machine that is a blend of many influences.The design intent of 001 was to develop a motorcycle that infused modern technology and classic styling with a hint of innovation. This is evident in details such as the use of classic bar end levers with a disc brake, LED brake light offset by a handcrafted and polished seat trim and a reversed engineered engine cover, CNC machined to feature the Ellaspede logo.

EB010 – 2004 Yamaha XV250 (Virago)

Price On Request The popularity of Yamaha's XV250 (Virago) cannot be understated. (You may expect to now see some high sales figures, but I couldn't find any)...

EB011 – 1984 Suzuki GR650

Price On Request The Suzuki GR650 (known as a "GR650 Tempter" in the US) is a bit of an oddity.

Part of the reason for this was that it was released at a time when big 4's were coming into their own....

EB019 – 2011 Triumph Bonneville

Price On Request Triumph claim the Bonneville to be "the most famous name in motorcycling" and apparently they (along with some of their brethren) are "the way bikes should look, run and sound".Bold claims, but they're probably correct... well perhaps for being the most famous at least.As to whether they are the way motorcycles _should_ look is a debatable point...

EB053 – Moto Guzzi V50

Price On Request After seeing the ebay bought bike our client Nick C asked us to collect a few months back we thought he'd bought himself a few headaches.The bike was a 1982 Moto Guzzi V50-3 and looked like it had been used previously as a farm bike complete with cow manure. As the build progressed however, it became apparent...
