It all begins with Passion
Max Travis is the owner and creative mastermind behind Damashii Customs. Born and raised in Orange County, Virginia—where he still calls home—Max’s passion for mechanics and craftsmanship ignited at a young age. As his skills and experience evolved, his focus naturally shifted toward vintage motorcycles, where his love for mechanics met his artistic vision.
For Max, customizing motorcycles isn’t just about building machines—it’s where technical mastery meets pure creative expression. His obsession with detail and dedication to craftsmanship are the driving forces behind every Damashii Customs build.

At Damashii Customs, every motorcycle is a captivating work of art that embodies the spirit of its name—魂 (Damashii), meaning "spirit" or "soul." Each vintage bike is hand-selected, meticulously restored, and modernized to meet exacting standards. No two builds are alike; every project pushes creative boundaries while breathing new life into machines built to last.
Damashii Customs is more than just a collection of unique motorcycles. It’s a celebration of fun, art, attitude, and freedom—a mission and dedication that rides with every creation.
