Here is Kody Dancing.

You can watch this over and over again, and it never stops being funny. But the guy can really build a bike. BTW, Happy Birthday Kody!

Chaos Wisner cycles




This is the chopper that Zach Parham and all the guys at our shop built. I will post more of it later. Easyriders magazine did a feature on this bike. Dispite being long as hell, it is a great bike to ride.

DNA springer ???????????




This was a bike built at Midwest Motorcycles when I was there. It was a variation modeled after Rhonda and I's BMF. The guy was riding in town and hit a pothole and almost crashed and burned. When he called DNA and sent them pics, they said it was our fault, that when we welded on the fender mounts, it weakend the springer. The fender mount is stock, THEY welded it on. DNA did nothing for this guy. He has since put a American Suspension Dragon front end on it and it looks killer.


Winter Sucks

Kow-A-Socky




Thanks Kody,


Take a look at my blog sometime to see what Kody is talking about.

Panhead bobber w/ Accurate Eng. motor.




I built this bike when I had a shop in dubuque. The customer had to have everything exactly the way he wanted, but I still threw in some things on my own. As a team , our shop built this bike in 8 days, start to finish, including paint. This bike was a blast to ride, and would pull a mean power wheelie. I wish I had better pics of this one.


David Mann tribute bike Ghostrider easyriders magazine


I built this bike for J&P Cycles and Easyriders Magazine as a tribute to David Mann's art. It was also timed with the anniversary of the first time it was printed in Easyriders Magazine. I will post some more pics on this later. The building of this bike was featured in the magazine, as well as a full bike feature.

Rhonda and Kody's bike



This is a bike I built a few years ago for Rhonda and I to ride for awhile then sell. I called it the BMF, which is now what I call all my personal project bikes I build. This bike was a absolute blast to ride and wasn't that expensive to build.


This is my interpretation of what my guest author, Ratchet's current project is like.

KZ 1000 w/sidecar


This is from when I first started at J&P Cycles (late 2004) and after I installed a sidecar. As you can see I use it for advertising (in this pic my old shop's name is on it).

Suzuki V-strom 650 Flat Black


This is my newest toy, A 2008 Suzuki V-strom 650, in Flat Black. I added Givi crash guards, Suzuki hand guards, axle spools, and a Iron Rider tail bag.
