Kickback

KICKBACK The Magazine • Motorcycles of all flavours. For those with great taste.

Moving the Soul • Clean lines. Organic shapes. Vibrant colours. The classic cool of Fifties design influenced the outcome of this retro-styled Triumph T100

Ready for ROUTE 55 • Dougie Poynter aims to come alive in an endless summer aboard his custom-built Triumph T100

THE KICKBACK SHOW PHENOMENON

Larry’s comet • Re-designed, re-engineered and totally re-imagined old cop bike

‘It started with two damaged engine casings that were garage wall art…” • People may have built double-engine Triumphs in the past, but never one quite like James Rogers’ ‘Mooneyes’ special

Loaded like a freight train • Simon built a Night Train express that’s got a stronger hit than a bottle of fortified Californian red

Tasty Triple • Steve Anstis creates the ultimate Jota

The Original Sin • Some purists might see this as a wicked aberration of an Edward Turner original, but we think this old-school Triumph is one righteous ride

Steampunk Sporty • The devil is in the detail... Thankfully, owner/builder Mike Stocks is on hand to answer some of those ‘WTF’ questions

Cult of the Cub • Customising the venerable Honda C70 is not uncommon. But Brian Ricketts’ idea of sticking a Yamaha DT250 MX motor in one is a tad unusual

Icarus • Keith Edney had a spare Bullet engine in the shed. Who better to craft the chassis around it than Andi Pratama of Kromworks in Jakarta?

A drive to be different • Bicycles with bolt-on motors are nothing new, and we all know about the Velo Solex. But a CX500 with a friction drive? Dan Duggan gave it a go…

Not a race. A revelation • Behind the scenes of Scram Africa 2025, a life-affirming, dirt-driven odyssey through the wild south of Morocco

A FURY THAT KNOWS NO BOUNDS • Fuel Motorcycles unveils a unique motorcycle that pays tribute to Eddie Mulder and revives the spirit of the 1960s desert sled

Leaving the main road • If you’re looking for adventure, Fuel Motorcycles have the gear you need

1% Inspiration 99% perspiration • Industry & Supply owner Neil Bannister used his talents as an entrepreneur and graphic designer to create a range of merchandise – but his business has developed way beyond that, thanks to his willingness to give total commitment to the project

FIT FOR A KING • Kingston’s streamliner Enfield has all the elegance and trappings demanded by royalty

Magic of The Shed • While bigger shows fall by the wayside, the Bike Shed Motorcycle Club’s flagship event still prospers, thanks to the unique atmosphere they curate at Tobacco Dock

Black Flash • The model that Vincent never made

THE ART OF THE SMILE • Welcome to the UK’s most inappropriate, and most fun, motorcycle festival

BUILT NOT BRIEFED • Jimmy's DR370 Scrambler for Malle Mile

GLORIOUS BASTARD! • MotoStrada Porto’s bitchin’ club-style Sport Chief RT bags the booty

BAGGERS RACING • Rekindling the Harley v Indian race track wars with the most unlikely machinery

CARS ’N’ BARS • A spell inside for the Kickback Custom Show at HM Prison, Gloucester
