Bad Penny Customs now stocks the original Speed Bleeder®!! In case you've never heard of Speed Bleeder® they are device that allows you bleed your brakes (and hydraulic clutch) by yourself without any expensive tools. The patented bleeder screw has an in built check valve. Once installed, it becomes a permanent part of the brake system. When it is time to bleed your brakes, you loosen the Speed Bleeder a 1/4 turn and pump your brake pedal or lever. When the pedal or lever is depressed, the pressure generated opens the check valve letting air and brake fluid out of the end of the Speed Bleeder. When you release the pedal and it returns to the up position, the check valve closes and prevents any air from reentering the system through the Speed Bleeder. When bubble free fluid is evident you close the Speed Bleeder. In the closed position it works just like your stock bleeder screw and prevents any brake fluid from leaking out. That is all there is to bleeding your brakes. If you later need to bleed your brakes, the patented thread sealing system makes it easy to open the bleeder screw to perform the bleeding operation. It is made of quality materials and it is economical at only $10 for the standard Speed Bleeder®. Speed Bleeder® is also available in polished stainless steel.

Bad Penny Customs has just secured the rights to be the sole distributor and dealer for "White Tire Paint" for Oceania (Australia, New Zealand & Asia). This is an amazing product that comes from Iceland (Skál minn vinátta!).
If you've ever tried to find white wall tyres then you'd know that if your not running standard Harley size rims the chances of you find some were slim. Even if you did find them or had to import them, you would be looking at a very large amount of cash! Some people have resorted to painting their own tyres with automotive paint, enamel, spray paint and even house paint. In the end they all crack, fade and peel leaving the owner frustrated and back at square one. We went looking for white walls for our XV250 Bobber project (from a stock 1997 XV250 Virago) and found out the extremes that people have gone too.
We ended up finding out about a guy in Iceland who had run into the same problems with his restored 1956 Mercedes-Benz Type 190 Ponton sedan. Together with a friend, he decided to make his own paint. The result is "White Tire Paint". This paint is unlike any other in that it contains rubber and a special compound that prevents it from hardening completely and therefore cracking!
One 250ml tin of "White Wall Paint" is enough to 2-3 coats on 4 car tyres or 2 motorcycle tyres (both sides need to be done on a motorcycle tyre).

We have just received a new delivery of White Tire Paint!
Use White Tire Paint to paint the tyres of your restored car, Hot Rod, Rat Rod, Bobber, Chopper or retro cruiser. $34.95 per 250ml contact sales by Email: Click Here

24th Nov 2009. Andy from South Australia has sent us a picture of his bike after he'd just done the tyres on his Honda VTX1300. What a great result that really does compliment the retro look of his bike. Very cool looking ride mate!

Below is a Triumph Rocket III that has had it's tyres painted using "White Wall Paint".

Update: 23rd July 2009

Well time flies along and it seems like it was only yesterday that we opened our doors to the public. Since we started we have been joined by some great suppliers and fabricators. Bad Penny Customs is proud to announce two new partnerships that will further increase our range and ability to supply great products and great prices. Our new partners are:

  • V-Twin Manufacturing - A global company that supplies a great range of parts and accessories for the v-twin market. Everything from retro lights to modern engines and even kit bikes!
  • Easyriders Inc - This company located in Japan makes some of the coolest parts for the metric / Japanese cruiser market we've seen in a while. They're radical style has matured to become synonymous with Japanese cruiser styling.

    We are also pleased to announce, that after some minor teething problems, a new improved bracket has been developed by Sumo-X that relocates the rear calliper on the VN900. The bracket moves the calliper underneath the swingarm so it sits behind most exhausts. This opens up the back wheel visually. We now have these in stock!
