<<27_02_08>>
Four weeks ago we attended The V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati U.S.A to showcase our ALL NEW product range to the industry, of which we are happy to add that our product went down a storm. Talking of storms we have since had our parts battle across storm torn middle America to get ready to present our complete product range to the general public at ‘The World’s Largest Motorcycle Event’ being Daytona bike week, from February 29th - March 9th, 2008.
If you are attending the Bike Week you must drop by our stand and say hello. We will have one stand set up inside J&P Cycles and another at Orlando Harley Davidson. If you miss us at either stand fear not as we will also have a display of products in Bruce Rossmeyer's Daytona Harley Davidson! We will have purpose built stands showcasing all the parts and also a recently customised Harley Bagger that highlights the complete range within its application!
Daytona Bike Week, is ‘The World’s Largest Motorcycle Event’ annually in Daytona Beach, Florida U.S.A. With approximately 500,00 people making their way to the rally area for the 10-day event, with festivities including motorcycle racing, concerts, parties, street festivals and a whole lot more you really begin to realise that its title is fully justified! Drop by to see Fulvio Battistini who will be one one of the three stands to say hello and have a chat!

Battistinis at the world’s largest V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati U.S.A . . . . . . . .
 Battistinis at V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati U.S.A . . .
<<08_02_08>>
We have just got back from the V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati U.S.A where our Brand NEW product range was exhibited at the world’s largest V-Twin Expo to the complete V-Twin trade in the States. The V-Twin expo is the largest show in the world solely for the V-Twin custom motorcycle industry and it shows. As you can expect at any top industry show, all the movers, shakers and shapers of the industry are out in force rubbing shoulders with one another. When you look at the list of exhibitors you begin to realise that this is the industry’s largest show for good reason!
The Battistini stand was a hub of excitement! With he new product range going down a storm, it is now available for the complete range of Harleys / Victory’s and of course customs and seems to be growing day by day. We have developed the range to bolt straight on, no cutting, no grinding and above all no raised blood pressures and shouting when trying to get it on the bike!
All of our parts are manufactured on the West Coast of U.S.A, with the complete range being available in chrome and also black anodise with highlight re-machining.
Over in Cincinnati we also met face to face with all of the owners of the brands that we import and distribute throughout Europe. And boy oh boy, all we have to say is that some of the products that we have coming over very soon are so hot they are unreal! The rules of what you have come to expect are all up in the air, and when the parts land with us we guarantee they will bring a smile to your faces!
We are all back to now thou, with a lighter wallets all round but more importantly a great time was had by all, especially having made a good attempt at drinking America dry of Corona, cocktails and whatever else we could fuel our bodies with. Many thanks to all the great friends that we made and we hopefully will see you all soon!

<<08_02_08>>
All of our good friends at Shaw Harley Davidson always put on a real cracker of a show every year in January and on the 13th Jan 2008 at the Eastbourne Winter Gardens it was no exception.
With more people through the doors than ever than before this really is an event that grows year on year. We were their on hand all day to show, help and advice what can be done to your Harley Davidson. We had a real head turner of a Fatboy on show that we have recently loaded with our own product! With a 250 rear end riding on air suspension, Custom Cycle Control bars and a truck load of our all new product range bolted on it really was a Fatboy to die for. Practical, stunning and unique is what this bike is all about!
Want to see the bike first. Well sorry as it debuted at the Shaw Winter Showcase. Our photo shoot images are going to the press as we speak for certain publications across the globe, so once they have them in print first we will then get them up onto this site!
We hope to see you all next year, as soon as we have a date we will let you know!
Bread and Butter in Barcelona . . . . . . . . . .
 Bread and Butter in Barcelona . . . . . . . . . .
<<08_02_08>>
More than 99,500 international fashion professionals visited the 18th BREAD & BUTTER – tradeshow for selected brands in Barcelona, so you know that ythis is the one to be at!
KING SIZE was the theme of this year’s BREAD & BUTTER and an appropriate slogan for the event.
On the first day, immediately following the fair’s opening, exhibitors were thrilled by the exceptional attendance at their stands. The halls were full and trade visitors were enthused by the creativity of many brands. Companies such as Nike, Ed Hardy, Converse and Nudie Jeans felt right at home in the Fira de Barcelona and promoted their collections in individual presentations outside the fair’s halls.
Karl-Heinz Müller: “It was fabulous, better than ever before, almost everything was perfect! The weather was fantastic, ‘early spring’ in Barcelona, and the mood was excellent. It was our masterpiece, our greatest success to date. Our campaign was right on target. All of Barcelona and the international fashion world were attuned to KING SIZE.”
Battistinis have to add: “this may well be one of the best organised shows that we have ever visited. From the scale, quality and diversity it had it all, we will be back!”

<<08_01_08>>
Show time! It’s amazing as our diaries are filling up just too quick for our liking! Already pencilling in the pages for the later part of ’08 is not what we wanted to be doing at the start of Jan! We have just looked at the last event we updated here and it says it was our Open Day way back in June. Rest assured that that is not the case as it feels like only yesterday that we were unloading our bags from the last time that we were on the road and now we are already back on it!
It looks like another year fuelled on more cans of Red Bull, stale motorway service station sandwiches and hangovers than we would have liked!
We love it truthfully!
Bring it on!

Our good friends at Shaw Harley Davidson always put on a good show every year to brighten up a January Sunday!

The Shaw Harley Davidson 2008 Showcase on Sunday 13th Jan at Eastbourne Winter Gardens draws together one of every Harley and Buell in the 2008 range along with a huge stock of used and custom bikes alongside! This event is perfect for an introduction to the entire world of the Harley Davidson Family, yet also if you have been riding Harleys your whole life! Entrance only £1.

 V-Twin Expo 2008. . . . . . .
<<08_01_08>>
For more years than we care to remember we have always made a trip over to the U.S.A at the end of January to the V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati. The V-Twin expo is the largest show in the world solely for the V-Twin custom motorcycle industry. As you can expect at any top industry show, all the movers, shakers and shapers of the industry are out in force rubbing shoulders with one another. When you look at the list of exhibitors you begin to realise that this is the industry’s largest show for good reason! This is the one that all the builders, designers and manufacturers of custom bikes and products get together to see what each other has planned for the year ahead!!!
Well for 2008 we just have not been content on launching our largest product range ever, but have decided to make this the show that we launch and showcase the entire range to the industry as a whole! So if you are in the industry and at the show next week make sure to drop by our stand.
If slipping and sliding your way up ice and snow coated streets in Cincinnati is not a thing for you next week fear not as our full product range is AVAILABLE NOW! Get down to your nearest dealer to get the full spec and order the coolest parts for your bike to hit the market in 2008! Call Battistinis today and we will direct you to your nearest Battistinis Recommended Dealer!

<<08_01_08>>
Well this is a tricky one as we can’t give to much away about this at the moment. The only thing that we can say is that we assure you some of our bikes are to be present in a very very unique venue in the heart of the capital from around March 2008 onwards.
We are really looking forward to this and when you hear where the bikes will be located you will be assured why! Watch this space as when we can say more WE WILL!
Over the years we have assured that our bikes have been at the forefront of shows and events throughout the world. For 2008 Battistinis are taking custom motorcycles to the eyes of a whole different client altogether!
Bread & Butter 2008 . . . . . . .
 Bread & Butter 2008 . . . . . . .
<<08_01_08>>
Design is the backbone of all of our creations. May it be a ‘one-of-kind’ custom build or a set of aftermarket floorboards, design is a critical factor that can never be underestimated! Barcelona, Spain plays host to 'Bread & Butter' over the days of 16th, 17th and 18th January. If up until now you have always thought that Bread and Butter is just something you eat, you have been wrong! To many creative persons throughout the world ‘Bread & Butter’ is also the leading international “tradeshow for selected brands” within the fashion industry.
This show highlights the hottest brands and products currently within the fashion industry. It also forecasts trends that are to take place in the industry over future seasons. For 2008 the entire upper compound of the Fira de Barcelona plays host to this groundbreaking show. One may ask that being a custom motorcycle builder and distributor what has this to do with our bikes and products! Well as we said, design is the backbone of all of our bikes and events like this keep us at the forefront of the industry. We draw inspiration from a variety of sources for our bikes and rest assured that the fashion industry is one of the most cutting, leading edge industries of them all!

The days of January 26th, 27th and 28th were definitely spent wisely by us this year as we attended The Alley Pally 2007 Motorcycle show in London.

Thousands poured through the doors each day, having the chance to see the latest and greatest builds to fire out of the Battistinis doors alongside builds that have definitely stood the test of time, ‘Pasadena’ and ‘Smooftale’.
If you missed it you definitely missed out, but fear not as im sure our bleary eyes and tired heads will be on the road again in the not such distant future! If you did attend and liked what you saw and would like to receive information about any of the bikes we had on show feel free to contact us!

MC Parts, Denmark . . . . . .
 <<09_09_06>>
Bleary eyes, espresso coffees and an abundance of toilet stops were what graced us this weekend in our quest to one of Battistinis Premier dealers, MC Parts, Denmark. Frank Jenssen, staver and the whole of the MC Parts team put host to their annual Open Day. The sun shone out in full force, good food and drink were plentiful and so too were the bikes that kept arriving all day long. A great day out and defiantly a shop worth a visit if you are in the Danish region of the globe.
>>> Oh yes, thanks to the idiots who found the euro tunnel a little to warm for their liking and had to lock themselves in their car, with windows up, air conditioning on and the engine running. Nice one,
we all must remember that one for next time!

Bikes, clothing, parts and accessories, tattoos, Real Ale (thanks to Hogsback Brewery), a good day out and a whole lot more were all on offer!
Those of you who went on a workshop tour got an insight into how Battistini bikes evolve from a dream into a reality and a glimpse of some of the bikes that will be roaring down the road sometime soon! There were also sneak peaks of some of the groundbreaking products that will be hitting the shelves and hopefully your bikes in 2007!
Thanks once again to all who attended and those who helped out!

Pro Custom Bike Show 2006 . . . .
 <<13_08_06>>
The 9th, 10th and 11th June saw the Pro Custom Bike Show land upon Newark Showground.
The show that was founded in June 2004 provides a showcase from which professional and non-professional British custom motorcycle builders and associated industries can get together. This year saw the final stages of the filming for the ‘British Biker build off 2006’. The six bikes and builders all turned up on the Friday to show what their bikes are capable of and to be judged for the overall title!
As you can imagine the relentless work leading up to this event has taken its toll on everyone, yet we all managed to treat ourselves to a well deserved cup of ‘tea’ . . . .

Ed Hardy, London . . . .
 <<11_08_06>>
When world famous clothing firm Ed Hardy that is second to none to the rich and famous wanted to host a party at the Pangaea nightclub in Mayfair London in the summer of 2006 there was one thing that they really needed. The Batt bikes were the final touch that gave the edge to the atmosphere that they really wanted to try and achieve.
Ed Hardy is worn by the likes of David and Victoria Beckham, Brad Pitt, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, Pam Anderson and many more icons of our time.
Ed Hardy is collaboration between two huge faces in their respective industries:
Christian Audigier, is known as a creative genius, being the man responsible for transforming Von Dutch within a short time into the powerhouse label around the world, as it is known today.
Don Ed Hardy is known as \\"the godfather of modern tattoo\\", for his sophistication, depth and sense of experimentation. California native Don Ed Hardy is recognized around the world for his technical brilliance and mesmerizing imagery.
Battistinis would like to say ‘thanks’ for the invite but ‘no thanks’ for the headache received the following day!
Let the good times roll!
Battistinis Open Day - 20th May 2006 . . . .
 <<13_08_06>>
Many thanks to all of you who braved the weather for the Battistinis Open Day this Saturday. With wet weather in the run up to the weekend, we were expecting a wash out but thankfully, the rain stayed away for the day.
Over 300 people turned up and a good time was had by all. The music was provided by Voodoo Vegas and Hoffman Sloff and there was plenty to see and do. Many thanks to the girls from \\'For Your Eyes Only\\' who came down and sold raffle tickets. Paul O\\'Connor and his team bought their tattoo equipment which proved popular and Martin from Hogsback Brewery very kindly provided some real ale.
The next open day will be in September to coincide with the Sandy Balls Rally. Keep checking the website for further details.

British Biker build off filming . . . .
 <<13_08_06>>
Its official! Filming has started for the ‘British biker build off 2006’. As you can see, the ‘Southern puffs’ definitely have one thing on their mind and it isn’t the bike building. Paul O’Connor from Tattoo Magic, ladies from ‘For Your Eyes Only’ all managed to put a grinding halt to any “fabrication issues” that could have occurred.

Battistinis go to Wharf . . . .
 <<13_08_06>>
The beginning of March 2006 saw Battistinis take the latest and greatest builds up to Canary Wharf shopping centre and Business complex for a show inconjuction with gentlemen’s outfitters Austin Reed. The tailor made collections offered by Austin Reed are a perfect collaboration to the Battistinis bespoke motorcycles.
This showcase was a natural progression from the 2004 Austin Reed/Battistinis card hold evening at the flagship store on Regent Street, London.
This time around the Batt bikes were not only in the Austin Reed store but located around the Canary Wharf complex itself to show everyone what was exactly possible at the cutting edge of custom motorcycle creation.
Managing Director Mark Battistini said,
“over the course of the three days, we managed to showcase the custom scene to a whole new audience and the response was really positive.”

American Chopper U.K Tour . . . .
 <<13_08_06>>
In the summer of 2005 the phenomena that is ‘American Chopper’ television series unleashed a road show tour to the shores of England at three venues around the country. This saw Battistinis joining forces with the tour to fabricate from scratch one of their masterpieces live on stage.
The first event was at Sunderland at the end of July. Despite appalling weather conditions thousands of people turned out to have a look at two custom built motorcycles from TV’s Orange County Choppers and to watch the Battistinis team start actually building a bespoke motorcycle on the stand.
The next live show took place on the 11th – 14th August at the Bristol Balloon Fiesta at Ashton Court Estate, Bristol. During the course of the three events, Battistinis are built their very own custom motorcycle and visitors to the show were able to see the bike take shape.
The third and final tour date was on Brighton Sea Front on Sunday September 11th and thousands of bikes lined the seafront. The Brighton event coincided with the Ace Café Reunion and even the Teutuls, stars of the cult American TV show American Choppers made a brief appearance.
A live commentary was given throughout the event to the thousands of viewers about the Battistini bike that was being created. Everybody went home with autographs in their pockets, knowledge about custom bike building and most importantly smiles on their faces.
