About the Author

Mark and Paul Shadley – The Shadley Brothers – run a motorcycle repair and customizing shop in Whitman, Massachusetts. If the name sounds familiar, maybe it’s because you’ve seen their custom two-wheeled creations in Hot Bike and American Iron magazines. The customs are their own, created entirely in house on the weekends – when they’re not repairing Harleys and customs for other people. There isn’t anything about maintaining and repairing a V-Twin American motorcycle that the Shadley Brothers don’t know.
