New Blood From Florida

Jessica 04

I got an e-mail from Bandit saying, ”hey, ya gotta check out Jessica!”

Me being the perverted sumbitch I am, gladly obliged by checking the link to the website he gave me. Following the link under galleries labeled “Jessica,” I was a little surprised by the discovery of a chopper, not a girl.

Ah Bandit, the bastard, always playing tricks on me.

The bike was designed and built by Dissel, (pronounced DEESEL), of Dissel’s Custom Cycles. You can check his work at www.Disselcustoms.com.

Working with some of the industry’s best, he honed his skills while taking notes and biding his time for the chance to go at it on his own. After several years, he made the jump, creating time altering customs that are made to be driven.

“My bikes are built to ride,” he told me. “I don’t build bikes unless the owner plans to ride it. Riding is what it’s all about, right?”

Spoken like a true builder.

“The fab work on this beauty sure sounded better in the concept stage than when it came to construction,” he lamented. “What a pain in the ass the grill and panel work turned out to be.”

I tried to get a story out of him that would be worth print, but Dissel’s an ordinary guy who just happens to make his living building bikes. He could care less about glamour. He just wants to build one-off creations that make the world stop in their tracks. He is a very humble craftsmen who definitely knows his place.

Combining a pseudo hot-rod car touch to this classically-styled chopper is enough to make it stand out from the crowd at any bike show. I for one was taken aback by the intricate detail of the bike.

As a rider who is always screwing with something on his own bike, I believe this is one bike I would just straddle and ride until the wheels fell off. How do you improve on something so fine? I only wish I could ride the bitch. Jessica, hmmm, I dated a girl by that name once. If this bike has a kick like her, well, any owner would be happy with her.

Until next time….
