Hold Fast Chicago is a small independent workshop owned by a locomotive machinist named Jeff. He ran a popular powdercoating and custom shop near Chicago for few years.
This time, he had just completed one of the custom-built motorcycle in his workshop. The figure of Honda CB750 motorcycle that became the main ingredient of this project was purchased at a price of $500.

He immediately worked by stripping it back and beginning the rebuild process with a full engine teardown and restoration once installed new piston rings, honed cylinder and all new gasket. Jeff also opted to ditch the original carburetor and use a newly rebuilt set with pod filters.
The frame of motorcycle was detabbed and the tank was sent to the Analog Motorcycle to be made more streamlined by reduced its width and added custom rivet work, knee dents, as well as a custom paint job. A new set of stainless bolts where used on the motorcycle's engine with a matching stainless steel spokes of Bunchanan's Spokes & Rims.
