‘My name is Aaron Piazza, I live in Seattle, WA. I’m a product designer by day, so from the begining I’ve been itching to make tweaks to the stock bike. This idea grew out of a love of motorcycle camping over the past few years.
The cafe bars and street tires were not ideal of fire service roads and back country but I made it work. Over this past winter I stripped it down and started over with the idea of a Thruxton/Scrambler hybrid to satisfy my need of on and off road riding.
Simple bolt-ons a little custom work and and some powder coating and I’m less than $1000 into it after the initial purchase. Selling off the original parts and finding some amazing craigslist finds helped.
