Company History
Sucker Punch Sallys championed a no-frills custom style: narrow tanks, solo seats, minimal paint, and a raw, hot-rod stance that felt rebellious yet rideable. The builds used proven American V-twin drivetrains with practical brakes and tires, then leaned into proportion rather than chrome to make a statement. In an era of ever-wider tires and show-only geometry, SPS insisted that customs should track straight and stop well. Economic swings and leadership changes buffeted the company, but its influence is clear: a generation of builders pursued cleaner lines, sensible trail numbers, and parts choices that make ownership sustainable. Historically, SPS marks a shift from spectacle to substance in American customs—style that serves the ride.
