    Dwight Mason & the GSX-R750 “Cafe Gixxer”

    Dwight didn’t start with a shop – he started with a Vulcan 500 in his parents’ garage and a hunger to build something that felt right. Years later, his GSX-R750 stands as proof that you don’t need a budget or a brand to make something unforgettable. Just time, grit, and a garage that stays lit after hours.

    This build isn’t about chasing trends. It’s about chasing clarity – in the lines, the wiring, and the ride. From hand-cut steel to Pepakura-mapped fiberglass, Dwight’s GSX-R is a mix of old-school endurance racer and raw DIY spirit. Powered by an NWT X21 Plus and LiFePO4 battery, it’s wired to run and built to feel.

    This is AFTR. No fluff. No gatekeeping. Just a rider who made it happen – and a reminder that you can too.

  • Dan’s 1977 GS550

    Dan’s 1977 GS550

    Dan’s feed is a rolling blend of street grit and mechanical soul — a rider, builder, and visual storyteller who lives where skate decks meet engine blocks. With a steady pulse of skates, motorcycles, cars, and raw culture, he’s not chasing polish, he’s chasing truth. His style is unapologetic, his taste unmistakable, and his presence in the NWT Cycletronic community reminds us why we build: for people who ride hard, think sharp, and never settle.

    This one’s not about polish, it’s about pulse. Dan E. (@frog_stomp203) brought his GS550 back to life with nothing but grit, instinct, and a wiring job that speaks louder than any paint job. No trailers, no fluff — just a raw build that fires up, revs clean, and leaves its mark.

    From the first crank to the final burnout, Dan’s install shows what happens when you trust your hands and your wiring. The bike’s not just running — it’s talking. And we’re proud to have been part of the conversation.

    This is what #NWTAlongForTheRide looks like. Not perfect. Not polished. Just real.

  • Matthew + the GSX

    Matthew + the GSX

    Matthew Reeves knows wiring. As an electrician by trade, he understands that clean routing isn’t just about looks — it’s about reliability. That mindset carried straight into his garage, where his GSX project became a rolling lesson in perseverance, problem-solving, and the kind of wiring that makes old bikes feel new again.

    This wasn’t a showroom build. It was a budget project, rattle-can paint in a dusty garage, carbs pulled off for the tenth time, and a few ear-splitting flame tests along the way. But that’s the point: AFTR isn’t about perfection. It’s about heart. And Matthew’s GSX has plenty of it.

    From fuel leaks that stripped engine paint, to redundant wiring eliminated with an NWT unit, to late-night troubleshooting calls that turned frustration into sparks — this build proves that the best bikes aren’t born flawless. They’re born from persistence, community advice, and the willingness to “cock it up and try again.”

    This is AFTR. A spotlight on builders like Matthew who push boundaries, learn by doing, and remind us that every imperfection is part of the ride.
