Battistinis Exile Trike . . . . . . . .

Battistinis Exile Trike . . . . . . . .

Deep within the heart of our Bournemouth Showroom lurks one serious tough beast! This killer ride was a real turn from the norm for us to build and we really kept tight lipped whilst undertaking it! Since its creation we really have kept it under ‘low key exposure' so not many people even know that it exists!

Well this is the first ever trike to be built by Battistinis, it is brand new, never used, and is the UK’s FIRST EVER Exile Trike. Also as far as we know it's the first one to be built in Europe too! It’s based on a kit of the very build that Russell Mitchell, head honcho of Exile Cycles U.S.A put together for the Biker Build off that really turned the competition upside down!

This is really as good as it gets, and you will be safe in the knowledge that it is built by, “Battistinis, Europe’s Premier supplier of Exile motorcycles and trikes”

This will burn Rubber!

This will turn heads!

This quite frankly is as good as it gets!

Bring a smile to your face, stick two fingers up at the world and its Crunching Credit and RIDE AWAY THE TOUGHEST TRIKE TO EVER HIT THE STREETS TODAY!

Battistinis feature in Scandinavian MCM . . . . . . . .

Battistinis feature in Scandinavian MCM . . . . . . . .

MCM Magazine started out in the fall of 1985, with the idea from the very beginning to launch a new motorcycle magazine on the Scandinavian market.

The heart and soul of the magazine has always been the unique mix of classic/vintage bikes, along with clean customs and of course the world famous "Swedish Style" choppers. Well for this month a four page Battistinis spread is also thrown into the mix for good measure!

MCM has always been independent of outside owners/investors, and has therefore been able to produce the magazine the way they like it; perhaps not the way that would have been the most profitable at any given time. From the very beginning an unpredictable mix of exotic machinery as well as home-grown specials in all shapes and forms have graced the pages and we have to say a massive thanks to all our friends at MCM for this great article about us, our bikes, our product collection and also about our ethos of trying to do things different from what one would expect!

Lowlife Italy . . . . . . .

Lowlife Italy . . . . . . .

‘Lowlife’ is a great Harley Davidson Lifestyle magazine that comes from Italy, with this month bringing issue number 5 out to hit the shelves.

Of course there are lots of trick parts out their but one rather important part on your bike is your headlight, well that’s if you want to see where the hell you are going when the sun drops down!

Well as you ‘can see’ Lowlife not only features our very own Battistinis headlight this month but also on the cover and with a huge feature is our good friends at Vallese Garage from Italy with their brand new Hot Rod Glide! This is, or rather was a 1999 Harley Davidson FLTR that has been transformed to something rather tasty in our eyes! Lets just say that the floorboards, heel/toe shifter and pegs are just the best! We can’t show you the complete feature as the magazine has just hit the shops and have to say go buy it, as its worth it!

These beauties along with the complete Battistinis Parts Collection is Available from all good bike shops WORLDWIDE!

Battistinis Parts Collection 2008 Catalogue . . . . . . .

Battistinis Parts Collection 2008 Catalogue . . . . . . .

It’s always a tricky one deciding when to hit the ‘print’ button for the next batch of catalogues as our Battistinis product range is continually been expanded day by the day!

Well as our 2008 catalogue has been superseded by the extent of product development that has occurred as of late and that we are not even close to getting the 09’ catalogue through the press we thought that bringing together the range to an online catalogue would be the answer!

Top Gear Products . . . . . .

Top Gear Products . . . . . .

Eagle eyed or just watch too much television! Well either way we don’t care but when the new series of Top Gear aired last night on BBC Two the team travelled to the USA to take three new generation muscle cars on an epic road trip.

Well at some point they had to show some filming of a Harley and when they did the bike they brought to the spotlight only had a set of aftermarket grips and headlight on the steed! Well this rider chose wisely as he had a set of our Battistinis round hole grips fitted with a Battistinis ‘C-thru’ headlight for good measure!
