God in Motorcycles?

I just love when someone takes something that is already perfect and makes it better. Australian Dave jennings, a former surfware business owner (he founded Mambo), started a new venture to combat the “soullessness” in modern motorcycle design. Jennings’ new company, Deus Ex Machina, takes retro bikes and modern bikes with retro styling (such as the Kawasaki W650, the Yamaha SR400, or even the Harley Sportster), breaks them down to the bare frame and then rebuilds them to custom specs. A chromed out tank here, drag handlebars there, monochrome black parts etc. Creating unique cafe racers, dirt bikes and street bikes.

Jennings company is now 5 years old and going strong, with locations in Australia, New Zealand and Bali. He’s now created quite a following and diversified into accessories, bicycles and his original love, surf gear. The company’s full name means “God from the machine” – interesting choice of names and those who ride would probably agree in the heavenly stature of Jennings motorcycles. Check out his gallery, absolutely fantastic!
