Through the pages of Vibes and Hot Bike Japan I came acquainted with the work of master
custombuilder Keiji Kawakita of Hot Dock.I liked his early work, but was not prepared for this.
This bike was built like a nuclear plant, one radical looking dragracer for the street.
The man also built his own radial 4 valve heads.
I was more than intrigued, I contacted Keiji and he sended me some photos and a little bio.The article was published in many magazines. Some years later Keiji won the S&S 50
contest with Nautilus. And the man keeps dazzling me to this day with his wild and
versatile bikes.
