Sporting the powerful blue shade BMW lovers couldn’t miss a mile away, this seductive R80 custom by Ian Solley of 7 Ages almost makes us cry. Every detail modified, this beauty is truly one of a kind with the frame converted to a hardtail and forks from the Harley-Davidson FXD.
It was a team effort from fellow experts glad to lend a hand.  Dave Batchelar of P&D reshaped the tank, created the side panels, and the front fender/rear fender seat unit. Sick 23 inch wheels by Steve Taylor with the traditional snowflake style rims grip the road, proudly showing off its Supertrapp race mufflers, custom bars, Oberon indicators and mirrors, modified Harley headlight.

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
