Ian Staudt  -  06' Smoke Out Build Off KZ1000

custom frame designed by Ian up on wheels nice front springer! great pictures rolling right along! what is the blue bottle? looking sweet! just about there Monica, Ian's significant other and their pride & joy! wonderful build, note the fake fuel tank used for electrics We were proud to be a part of Ian's build off bike!

A great builder with a wonderful opportunity to showcase his talent, Ian Staudt was chosen for  The Horse Smoke Out in Salisbury, NC. It was a good one!  Ian did really well at the Horse Smoke Out, and took second place in the build off! First place went Fab Kevin on a HD chassis, so it was an impressive showing for a metric chop!  Ian & Monica and family were wonderful, the bike turned out superb and we can't say enough about what a great crew Ian had giving him a hand!  If you are in South Carolina or looking for a top notch shop, check out Ian's, he does primarly HD work but also seems to have a talent for those metrics! Note: the blue bottle on the side of the bike, was actually the fuel cell wrapped with blue painters tape, the gas tank is a fake and houses all the electroncs, fabulous idea, great clean look! A very informative and detailed write up on the bike and build, featured in the "Horse" magazine issue #66, March of 07'. Congratulations Ian and crew!   Frame Specs: 5" forward - straight backbone 2" up - rolled curved single downtube 45° rake big twin neck gooseneck 2" rear section stretch 150 rear (custom)
