While we’re discussing alternative energy….


….what about this one? Came across this bike on an oldtimer show in Belgium, completely hand built around a Volkswagen diesel engine. Tons of torque, great fuel economy, super reliability, why not? Well, how about a lousy soundtrack, heavy weight, and ugly engine…. Still, I really like the craftsmanship and creativity that went into this bike.

Hang in there Steve, we’ll help you out! Introducing myself as one of the guest bloggers


Ha, my moment of fame! It’s a great honor for me to be a guest blogger for MPOTD. So who am I? Well, I am still trying to find that out, but I’ll share some facts; the name is Ton Stam, 38 years old, and I live in the beautiful Netherlands. I have built a couple of custom bikes, ranging from streetfighters to scramblers. Nowadays I have a weakness for customized oldies, but I still LOVE modern bikes that have been changed into something more personal.

Now for some hardware, this is my home-built Wrenchmonkees-inspired (can you tell 🙂 ) Z750 Twin, which I sold this summer to make room for some new projects. Was (and still is hopefully) a blast to ride! The action pics were taken by Michiel de Molenaar of shedbuiltbikes.com, thanks again Michiel!

Looking forward to share loads of nice rides, so keep ‘m coming!!
