Monte Battistinis Carlo . . . . . . . . .


Monte Battistinis Carlo . . . . . . . . .

Two words which evoke a magical dream world. Monte-Carlo of course. Well now three others are closely associated, with those being ‘Battistinis Exile Bullfighter!’

Oh yes that’s correct, the Batt mobile is brimmed with fuel, the ferry tickets booked and the relentless long drive now underway! And no its not a slingshot trip, its gonna be a long haul journey visiting some of our friends throughout Europe dropping down to Rome Italy for some fine wine and dinning for good measure.

The images you see here are what our very latest ‘Battistinis Exile Bullfighter’ is all about. Its maiden voyage was in perfect fitting to where would be its final destination. It had to be one of glamour, one based on the coast and one common to the rich and famous, so a quick trip to millionaires row, Sandbanks Poole was in due order!

Like all of our builds, we create each Exile to be uniquely yours through subtle features without loosing the essence of ‘Exile’ one little bit. If you like what you see get in touch as if these bikes were hot cakes their wouldn’t be much more than crumbs left!

As soon as this very bike reaches its lucky owner on the coast of the Med we will have some shots up on this very blog to make us want to live their too, so as they say, WATCH THIS SPACE!

Once again confirming, “Battistinis, Europe’s Premier supplier of Exile motorcycles”

Evasion in Indonesia . . . . . . .


Evasion in Indonesia . . . . . . .

Sometimes when you build a bike the moment it rolls of the ramp and is fired up for the first time it rolls out the miles, one after another, hail rain or shine getting seen by all! Other times a bike may barely see the light of day and is unknown by everyone expect for the owner and those involved within its creation. Either way, Battistinis always build their bikes to not only look great but ride great too! We may not opt for the latest must have gizmo, gadget or fad as prefer to build bikes that will ride and look as good as they do today as in ten or twenty years time.

Featured above is Evasion as in Montryu, Indonesia. This is a bike that will truly create its own legacy!

Remember, are you in the press??? If so make sure that you contact us to get on the Battistinis press database so to be sure to be sent high res (studio and location) images, text and specs of all our latest creations! We have a few secret surprises up our sleeves that we are sure you will want to be on the list to receive!

El Toro in Indonesia . . . . . . .



El Toro in Montryu . . . . . . .

Well time seems to be flying past faster than ever, but as that’s not within our control we will just have to put up and shut up with it we guess. However it’s nice at times to be brought back to some of the things that we have been upto throughout the year as a reminder to why we have been so busy and why the clocks and calendars feel like the fast forward button has been held down on them all!

The beginning of October is no different from the beginning of any other month when we have the postman hobbling in with backache from the stacks of custom magazines that land on our desks from across the globe. This month one certain brown envelope contained not one but two copies of the publication Montryu. Based in Indonesia, Montryu could not choose which one of our latest builds to feature so decided to feature both! Battistinis bikes in back to back issues and having them also on both covers really was the icing on the cake! This month the Brand new ground up build called El Toro takes the limelight!

At Battistinis you will find the best collection of custom bikes for sale under one roof in the UK. From bikes that really have stood the test of time to ones that have barely seen the light of day, we can safely say we have a collection to cover all tastes, styles and sizes. You can also be safe in the knowledge that if we don’t have what you are looking for we can build it for you!

Battistinis Forward Controls . . . . . .



Battistinis Forward Controls

Sit back or get up and GO! For 2009 we thought that not only getting back to the drawing board for a whole host of exciting new products would do so somehow managed to find the time to squeeze in going back over a selection of our existing products and refine them to make them even better than before!

First up on the table are our forward controls. A brand new machining cut leaves a sharper finish than before and with a new engraved logo brings a whole new look and feel! The black anodized versions with the new bold highlight re-cut not only look amazing but complement the rest of the range better than ever! What has not changed thou is that these beauties are still CNC machined to the highest possible standards from T6-6061 Aluminum in the USA and it shows!

These Battistinis forwards will bolt straight into all Harley Davidson models with provisions for forward control mounting! Available in standard stock length, +2” extended, supplied with Battistinis footpegs and shifter/brake lever pegs.

But there’s more than just looks going on here, these DOT compliant forward controls unique design incorporates the pivot shaft and footpeg mount in one for a higher foot position, creating not only uncluttered cleaner looks but also better ground clearance!

The master cylinder bore is ¾”, utilizing stock replacement Harley Davidson rebuild kits for simple and ease of sourcing repalcement parts should you need too.

As with The complete Battistinis product range, these beauties are available in show winning chrome plating and also black anodising with highlight re-machining that offers a bold two-tone look that really brings the parts to life!

Size really does matter . . . . .





Size really does matter . . . . .

When a customer has the dilemma and asks the question, “I’ve got a

V-Rod and I want to make it different, but keep it the same” you really have to ask yourself what the hell you can do!

Battistinis, the kings of customising opted for the challenge and decided that blending the stock factory look with a custom stance is the way to go.

Mark Battistini stated, “At first glance or to the untrained eye this bike may look like that it has never been through a custom shop in its life, if that’s the case we achieved our objective 110%. This V-Rod is like a bike that swallowed a dose of steroids that only bulged in certain places.

We didn’t want to take the bike back to basics and lose the factory look as that was not the name of the game here! Subtle enhancements with a killer 300 rear end rolling on air ride keep the Harley feel and look but raise an eyebrow or two in doing so.”

Unfortunately Battistinis have sold this V-Rod already. However if you are after something similar or have a Harley that you want to take it to the next level get in touch as this bike alone filled out a sketch book of ideas that Battistinis would love to make a reality!


Quick Spec:

> A whopping 18 x 10.5” (300mm) rear billet split wheel with show chromed centres and black rims, manufactured by Renegade U.S.A.
> 21 x 3.5” front billet split wheel with show chromed centres and black rims, manufactured by Renegade U.S.A.

Battistinis goes Exile!

Hardcore, tough, minimal and above all a bike with Attitude!
Tough as nails but completely rideable is what this bike is all about!

Battistinis “Europe’s Premier supplier of Exile Motorcycles” unleash another one of the Exile classics to the public. This time round the name of the bike is ‘The Fatbloke’. The reason for the name, well that would be to do with one very good friend of Russell Mitchell and a sunny afternoon in London, ask no more!

The Fatbloke screams Exile, being a true timeless classic, reminiscent of the fat, nostalgic bikes that first came out bearing the ‘Exile’ brand some ten years back. This beauty is built to be rode hard, rode fast and has a fist full of attitude thrown in for good measure!

Every part on this bike are not bolted on for the sake of it. Rather than building a bike with a mis-match of parts this beauty brings all high end quality parts that work both visually and mechanically together.

Every billet part, of which the bike is loaded with have been show polished to perfection. Then they have all been cut back to give the industrial look and feel that Exile has become famed for!

A bike like this can only be one colour, yet the finish can be one of only two, gloss or matt. Gloss black paint was what was chosen but not just any old can of black found in the back of a garden shed. This paintjob had its paint laid on, cut back and then reapplied to give the richest and deepest shine you can get in the business!

Battistinis wanted to create a bike that was completely Exile in all its senses!
“Clean tough European styling whether you like it or not”

Just because this Battistinis Exile does not come supplied looking like your local town Christmas tree, it still is fully loaded to the hilt rest assured!
