DIY 101: Gordo Risers Well this is embarrassing...something went wrong. A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation.

I have and I’ve decided that there’s really only three responses that matter. Firstly, and most obviously, you’ll get a flat out “don’t like ’em”. Then there’s the response that a Johnny-come-lately hipster like my good self will give;

a long rambling monologue about nothing in particular that you’ll be lucky to stay awake through. Put simply, I like a select few. Then there’s the response that the owner of this bike gave me. No words, he just rolled up his sleeve and showed me an old Harley tattoo. Enough said, I reckon… Can you tell us a little about yourself? My name’s Thom Davy. I’m a 34 year old Graphic Designer, originally from England. I’ve been living in Australia for the last 7 years. Been pulled numerous times by the police for my noisy pipes and i’m not talking about my insides.Can you take us through the build of the bike? It’s a 2010 Iron. I originally bought it because of the matt black stealth looks and the reliability of a brand new engine but overall the affordable price tag. I decided I wanted to strip it back and try to make the bike look more classic and over time I sourced bits and pieces from ebay etc. and gradually my spare room filled with parts… spoked rims, tires, headlight, tail light, new seat, shocks, speedo relocation, forward controls, bars, risers, indicators, tank lift, coil relocation, air filter, pipes, sprocket cover

, points cover, pedals, grips, mirror and a few more odds and sods. I had all the parts but needed help in making it happen, luck would have it I bumped into a top bloke called Kendall Madigan who lived literally at the end of my street and who knows his shxt, been building bikes for years and we came to a deal he’d help me fix my bike up in exchange for a logo for his bike building biz (if anyone wants to customize their bike without the hefty price tag give So he had himself a deal. I would like to wrap the pipes, but we had such a bitch getting them on we don’t really want to take them off for a while. I’ve asked my bro who works at Crumpler to make me a new version of a blanket roll bag which will be handy. Original bike, pre Davy molestation Did you sketch, Photoshop, or just go with the flow while building? Did you draw any inspiration from other bikes? Mainly when it came down to choosing the colour and tank design I made a couple of 10 minute photoshop mock ups, but really just had it all in my head. 

I changed my mind so many times it was stupid only to come back to my original idea of the scallops which I then gave to Marc over at Sydney Custom. I think he did a great job and unfortunaly you can’t really see the flake in the paint in the pictures; it’s best viewed in daylight – looks awesome. You entered the bike in the Deus Bike Build-off. Yeah I entered the bike just as something to do. Think the idea was to build the best for less, not sure I fitted into that category. Would have been a great day out apart from the fact that I got a flat so spent most of the day pumping it up in ball-sweating heat to then end up getting towed away from Deus and then to top it off I lost my house keys… all that for a free T-shirt. (I’m starting to run out of bike pump jokes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated – Andrew) Custom Harley 101 – always lower the light How have the mods you’ve made changed the way the bike rides? The suspension is way better and the risers don’t break my neck anymore, but now the seat breaks my ass and the tires are as scary as hell in the rain.
