Petrolicious finds a teen already building his own motorcycles

Petrolicious loves a good father/son story, and it has a fantastic one for the outfit's latest video. Haven Jarel is only a teenager but lives with his dad in a warehouse that's packed full of hot rods, custom motorcycles, a giant slot car track, and enough tools to create anything mechanically imaginable. He doesn't have a TV or video games, but even at such a young age, he can already build an award-winning motorcycle. In fact, he caught the bug to start riding motorbikes at the tender age of three and hasn't looked back since.

In Petrolicious' interview, Haven already seems mature far beyond his years, and his dad is clearly proud of his son's talents. The boy definitely has an eye for details too. The motorcycle on display here started as an unloved vintage trail bike, but Haven was able to transform it into a beautiful, small-bore cafe racer. Now, he has set his sights on the next project and has already started building his first car.
