BUILD A BIKE - Old | Narrator Motorcycles

GETTING STARTED

A custom motorcycle from Narrator is built to reflect your style and how you ride. We start with proven platforms—like the Triumph Bonneville and Scrambler—and rework them from the ground up with premium components, clean lines, and a focus on performance and reliability.

This isn’t a catalog build. You’ll choose the finishes, riding position, accessories, and performance upgrades that matter to you. We’ll guide the process, handle the hard parts, and deliver a finished machine that’s tailored—not overdone.

If you want a classic bike that stands out without trying too hard, we’ll help you build it right.

CHOOSE THE MODEL

We offer builds based off three bikes: The Triumph Bonneville, Scrambler 900 and a Scrambler 1200 option. If you're looking for something strictly for the road, we recommend going with the Bonneville. However, if you're looking to kick a bit of dust up, the Scrambler might be your bike.

Triumph Scrambler 900

A lighter scrambler variation optimized for the road.

We work with the best painters in the game, ensuring the color or design you choose reflects your personal style.

LEATHER OPTIONS
