Busy B’s Motorcycle Auction For A Cause
Brian Kendall, otherwise known as ‘Busy B’, has been very busy indeed. If cats had nine lives, then Busy B has lived three out of those six. He has been a rapper, a roadie, a traveler, and now the owner of a custom-built bike shop called ‘Busy’s Speed Shop’.
All Bikes Welcome!
We’re guessing the Speed part is probably their speedy service…or something.
Motorcycles, and customizing them, are not just hobbies or a passion project. No, to Busy B, “motorcycles are a feeling to me”.
He explains, “They become like part of my person. I'm a very diversified person and I try to show that diversity with my builds.

“I like to go mudding and camping so the last bike I finished, I made it into a Scrambler, gave it more aggressive tires for the trails.
“Then on a whole other level, I built a bike that was a cross between nostalgic with a modern front end for the riders who like crotch rockets. Others want me to “busy-fy” it, in other words, do whatever I envision and dress it that way.”
Busy B will be hosting a Cancer Bike Rally and fundraiser on Sunday, March 4, for his best friend Michael’s wife, Leilani. Michael has helped bring Busy B business and “does a lot of good things as a friend”, which is why Leilani, who is a “wonderful mother of two kids”, is so important to Busy B.
He aims to raise “more awareness to cancer,” he said, “especially the type of cancer Leilani has, and bring many types of motorcycle riders to ride and bond for a serious matter.” But of course, he also wants to “reach our goal to help Leilani’s medical bills.”
Busy B single-handedly picked a custom bike to auction off for one (or two) lucky riders to win. And because there’s a PayPal set up, those unable to attend will not have to be physically present to win.
The event will be starting at 10:00 am and by 11, “it’ll be kickstands up for a scenic ride east to Lake Lavon ending at Bar Louie in the Villages of Allen”.
