Welcome back to Pit Stop, the corner of American Moto Co. where we pull over to explore the craft, the culture, and the creators who keep the raw, unfiltered soul of motorcycling alive. Today we're catching up with Vishant, or Sean as his American friends k

By day he's an IT guy at a bank, by night he is a man building custom Ducati's that will blow your mind. His latest bike took five and a half years, weighs 310 pounds wet, and makes 112 horsepower at the rear wheel.

Who is Nick? A Denver rider who came to motorcycles late, got told he was doing it wrong, and stayed anyway. He hosts the Airhead247 SWB Video Podcast and created the Airhead Misfits. He owns four old BMWs and has been on the internet defending strangers' taste for about a decade.
