THE STORY BEHIND THE NAME

It was an ill-fated night for owner Kenny Kwan in June 2009. Kwan was heading home + decided to stop to fill up his bike with gas when an on-coming SUV didn’t see him and turned left in front of him. Kwan was unable to stop in time and ran straight into the right side of the vehicle causing serious and almost fatal injuries. Kwan survived the crash with many months of recovery but the 2007 Triumph Bonneville he was riding was written off. He was able to salvage the motor from the crashed bike and started his very first custom style build. In doing so, Kwan found that there was a need for supplying specialty bike parts in the city and started the company Ill-Fated Kustoms based on the ill-fated night that lead to the completion of the OG Bobber. The OG Bobber is often on display at any show or event that IFK attends to showcase the irony behind the company and company name.
