The Adventures of Bren and Sven

A Lil Deconstruction Before Reconstruction

As my ever continuing quest for Two Wheeled Nirvana continues, I decided to take on the task of rebuilding a classic street bike into a one off custom cafe. Ambitious, I know be it that Sven has very little mechanical know how aside from regularly scheduled maintenance. I have undergone this project to test myself not only in my technical prowess but to truly see how much I enjoy the motorcycle. Nothing can be more of a test of commitment than to see the guts of a motorcycle strewn about a garag...

I’ve Been Through a Desert On a Horse With a Name

And its name was Daytona 675. As the Summer reached its peak, I thought to myself, "Hey wouldn't it be great to get out on the bike?" Of course it would Sven, it has been too long since your last little motorcycle getaway.

With a fully loaded Triumph, I set off for Sin City amid Friday evening traffic up Am...

As the Bren and Sven team moves to a more Beer focused way of life, I, Sven, am still madly in love with all things on two wheels. It has been strange to think back at to how my life was prior to leaving that Triumph dealership on my brand new Daytona 675. 9000 motorcycling miles and a year later, I am still, if not more fascinated by this addiction. I have been so entranced by this lifestyle.... not just a rocker, racer, or cruiser, but a true biker. So as a real biker, I'm taking a never en...

The 2010 B&S Motorcycle of the Year Awards: Sportbike

OK, so a while back I gave a little spiel about how there seems to be an awful lot of contradictory MOTY awards given by various motorcycling publications. Well if you want to call this adding fuel to the fire, so be it, but we at BrenandSven.com are trying to bring some solidarity to what seems to be an unsure world of moto-journalism. So here it is folks, the 2010 BS Motorcycle of the Year awards (and this MOTY is void bull $*!%). So this is how the BS-MOTY works. 6 categories: Superbike, Spor...
