Then
The Roads Behind Us
Old motorcycles, race weekends, long miles, and the photographs that prove the stories were real.
Original Privateer
Somewhere along the way, a lot of us stopped doing the things that made us feel alive.
Remember Who You Used To Be. Build More Stories.
Build Your Next StoryThe Original Privateer Manifesto
Original Privateer is for the people who still feel the pull of the road, the garage, the starting gate, and the life they once promised themselves they would live.
You don't have to be a racer or ride a motorcycle to belong here. You just have to believe there is still time to do something that makes you feel alive.
Motorcycle roots. Real life. Real stories.
Where It Started
Motorcycles taught us independence, resourcefulness, and the value of taking the long way home. Original Privateer grew from that world—but it belongs to anyone willing to build, explore, and make the years count.
Wear the Reminder
Real Life. Real People.
The old photos matter. So do the new builds, the hard miles, the shop nights, and whatever comes next.
Then
Old motorcycles, race weekends, long miles, and the photographs that prove the stories were real.
Now
Shop nights, sparks, Chayton's fabrication work, and motorcycles taking shape one piece at a time.
What's Next
The next road, the next build, the next place, and the next story are waiting.
Father and Son
Handmade steel, welding, fabrication, choppers, and the kind of work that still carries fingerprints. Built by Chayton Goodwin in Goodland, Kansas.
From the Shop and the Road
Builds, rides, conversations, mistakes, and the stories that happen when you stop waiting for someday.
