Featured in the October Issue of Roadracing World: 

A Ducati Streetfighter’s Journey from Showroom to Racetrack

        Roland Sands is the son of a custom bike builder, won the AMA 250cc Grand Prix national championship in 1998, is an entrepreneur and designer, and is also very energetic. Take Roland’s aesthetic, mix it with his philosophic synthesis of custom bike culture, punk rock, and road racing, and you get his racing class: Super Hooligan.

        As Roland explains: “My dad’s always been into motorcycles but he started as a chopper guy. He was building springer front ends out of Long Beach, California, and started a company called Performance Machine. I was racing grand prix 250 bikes and at the same time, I was the head of design of Performance Machine. That’s where the genetics of racing and outlaw chopper design came together. It was a really cool time because I would come out, I’d race motorcycles, and then I’d go home and I’d design motorcycle parts…”

“What the **** Is A Super Hooligan?” By Sam Q. Fleming
