Brian Buttera started out as a welder and metal fabricator from his backyard shop in Lakeland. His experience assembling vehicles allowed him to put together an international award-winning custom bike.
Buttera has been to competitions as close as South Dakota and as far away as Switzerland and Abu Ahabi. Everywhere he's been, he's won competitions thanks to his custom bike he named the "Deadliner." Last year, he had the honor of winning "best in show" at an international competition in Abu Dhabi.
"All those hours and all that time you put into it, that's when it pays off," he told Bay News 9 last year. "To have it critiqued and people appreciate what you do and judge it accordingly, it's a great feeling when you win."
Buttera will be showcasing his international award-winning motorcycle at the Second Annual Central Florida Wheels Of Steel in Lakeland. Presented by Geico, this indoor custom motorcycle show will allow motorcycle riders, builder, and enthusiasts the opportunity to share their love of motorbikes.
