Incredibly passionate about his craft and making dreams come to life, Bryan Fuller created Fuller Moto as the ultimate custom motorcycle and automotive shop that truly aids its customers in experiencing life to the full(er). Fuller is a Master Builder, Designer, TV Personality and Author. He realized his passion for cars as an eighth grader while helping his dad rebuild a 1965 Ford Mustang, and in High School he built two cars of his own, including a souped-up 1930 Ford Model A with a Chevy 327 V8 engine. At the time he considered building cars just a hobby and went on to college, earning a biology degree with the hopes of becoming a chiropractor.
After graduating from University of North Texas, Bryan enrolled at Wyoming Technical Institute where he learned advanced technical skills that helped shape him into the fabricator he is today. Drawn in by the west-coast car culture, after school Bryan moved to California and began a two-year apprenticeship with So-Cal Speed Shop.
Throughout the 2000’s, Fuller would go on to establish his own shop, Fuller Moto, and win countless awards for his custom car and motorcycle work. He even appeared on and hosted a variety of automotive TV shows, including “Two Guys Garage,” “Biker Build-Off,” “Café Racer TV,” “Naked Speed,” “Car Fix,” and “Caffeine and Octane.”
His business Fuller Moto is a leading automotive and motorcycle design and customization shop based in Tucker, GA that “inspires, educates and entertains those with a creative spirit, a do-it-yourself attitude and a passion for anything on wheels.” Their team of specialist handle everything from paint and upholstery work to metal fabrication, CAD design, and 3D-printing.
The high-quality work Fuller Moto prides itself in can be seen in full display in one of their unique motorcycle builds. Today’s Ride of the week is a highly modified Kawasaki Ninja 500 street bike named “Kawasabi.” Fuller built the bike as a tribute to his father, who served as a paratrooper in the armed forces in Vietnam.
The bike first premiered at the 2007 Bike Fest Artistry in Iron Invitational and was formally unveiled at the 2007 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
Kawasabi features a ton of aesthetic choices that give it its signature look, but it’s the smaller details that make the bike special. One of the cooler additions is the seat, which is Fuller’s father’s military duffel bag he carried during the war. Another unique characteristic is that since the Ninja platform is so narrow and the rear wheel is fairly wide, there’s actually a jack shaft in the middle that kicks the chain out.
