Dar / Trish –

Just wanted to drop a quick note and tell you how much I am enjoying the Brass Balls Bobber you built for me over this past year. I have managed to log just over 800 miles on the bike and it has been absolutely fabulous!

I trailer’ed her last weekend to the hill county and rode form New Braunfels to Gruene to San Antonio – there wasn’t a bike that could touch her looks, grace or flat out ‘Bad-assness’ of this bike! I will eventually send some pictures and let you see firsthand your work and my passion. Thanks again Dar, best of luck in your ventures!

Dar Holdsworth

Who is Dar Holdsworth? A guy with a dream and desire to build bikes.

      

Dar is a guy who’s life did not expose him to bike building early on. Dar spent his adolescent years in an orphanage. He was adopted during his teen years and joined the Air Force after high school. Shortly after returning from Desert Storm, Dar’s time in the military had expired and he was moving on to a career in printing and manufacturing displays for the retail industry.

Prior to Darwin Motorcycles, Dar started and operated a successful Visual/Design business, providing signage, displays and fixtures to the retail industry.

Dar loves, lives and breaths bikes.

Dar was a customer of Racing Innovations, collaborating on and helping build a few bikes with Sam Wills. While building a bike for his dad (who adopted him at age 16), Dar approached Sam with a business proposal to design and build bikes together, “To offer the above average bike to the average Joe”. Sam knew Dar was not going away and had it in his blood. He accepted and the rest is history.

Like many others, Dar did whatever he could to earn a fair living, be a great father, husband, and provider. He had his ups & downs, and as life continued on, his dreams got pushed aside.

Through the support of his loving wife Latrisha, the good fortune to know Sam as a friend and bike building mentor, and the pure desire to do what he truly loves (bikes, bikes, bikes) Dar created and operates Darwin Motorcycles.

Darwin Motorcycles, LLC. builds the World renowned, Brass Balls Bobbers and Choppers.
“The above average bike for the average Joe”.
