Hollister Rally Revival Class – MOD Street
Halia, a custom sled built by Jim Guiffra and the AFT Custom Girls, took 1st place in the MOD Street class. The construction is the handiwork of the ‘AFT Custom Girls’, which is a group of female motorcycle enthusiasts and models hone their skills at the AFT shop in Jackson, CA.
The tank of Halia is hand-made from steel and the side covers and fenders are hand formed from aluminium. The frame is modified from a stock standard structure and things like a hidden radiator, race suspension, digital switches and LED lights point to the bike’s intent. The street tracker also runs a Beringer six-piston front caliper on the disc brake, while a standard Honda drum brake lives at the rear.
