Nice hype from Leno!
I had the privilege of meeting Steve this past year in Sturgis through a friend. His bikes are meticulously built by hand with an eclectic mix of parts. He is a super cool dude and well deserving of this bit of recognition. I wish you the best of luck Steve and am looking forward to seeing your next creation.
Amazing work. Jay is 100% right, there are so many great small garage builders out there that get no media time. Hats off to Jay and Cyril for putting it out there.
Way to go Steve. Congratulations on the interview. It’s well deserved and I’m glad to see your creative vision being appreciated by so many others. You da’ man.
Good job Steve. That is how we built them in the mid 60’s. They were called choppers then. NOT bobbers. The others were called customs.
Best bike show I’ve seen. Two guys BS’n about a couple bikes. Very cool.
No attitude or tough guy approach. Regular guy.
Refreshing and talented to boot.
2 thumbs up..Well deserved.
this is my new favorite website….. how did I not know about this site sooner? Thanks Cyril!
I wish more Hollywood stars were like Leno. Jay is a great American. Steve looks like a cool dude and has some real talent.
Jay Leno is the real deal, 1st class gentleman and knows his stuff well
Looks like Steve earned his eight minutes of fame.

“True customs. No “theme bikes”. No off the shelf parts bolted together. Just hard core bikes that rip.”
– except for bikes named “Slasher” with claw-shaped fenders and WTF exhaust pipes.
Took you 40 hours for the top of that tank? You should probably spend more time behind the hammer and less time in front of the camera.
Enjoy your 8 minutes because it won’t be long before hack builders go out of business and people with actual knowledge and talent take center stage.
I’m sorry, I’d buy into the “nice guy, working hard” crap except what he produces is entry level garbage with a bow on it. If he was a nice guy, he would work hard acquiring some skill before promoting himself.
Met Steve a few years ago when he entered a couple of Bikes in a show I sponsored @ a vintage motorcycle race in Utah.Great Guy If you seen his bikes up close and ever built a bike you would appreciate the time and craftsmanship. Great job Steve
Great job Steve.
Hope we meet again someday.
Will look for you in Sturgis.
