LA Calendar Motorcycle Show History
The first annual LA Calendar Motorccyle Show actually started out as a backyard BBQ at producer Jim Gianatsis' house in 1991 to celebrate the publication of the 1992 Fast Dates racebike, and first 1992 Mikuni Iron & Lace Calendar with custom bikes and models. One of the calendar models, Playboy Playmate Teri Weigel, actually handled cooking the burgers on the outdoor grill.

The first Mikuni Calendar actually pubished in 1990 with my photo of Playmate Teri Lynn Doss on the cover holding a Mikuni carburetor, and inside the "Mikuni Calendar" featured nude model photography from Penthuse photographer Steven Hicks.
This first Calendar was produced by Gianatsis Design for our client Mikuni to replace the generic stock nude photogrpahy which Mikuni had been buying from Japan, imprinting Mikuni name on it and giving it to distributors as a Christmas present each year.
It was our intention (Gianatsis Design and Mikuni marketing director Lee Chapin) to bring out an origional calendar which incorporated Mikuni carburetor products.

Then the next year, 1991 we decided to produce a Mikuni promotional calendar we could sell to the public and featurd Mikuni carburetors on all the top racing bikes of the era.
The 1991 Mikuni Calendar was photographed in its entirity by myself and included cover model and new Playboy Playmate Pamela Andreson with Miguel Duhamel's Yoshimura Suzuki "Big Poppa" unlimited class Superbike.

In 1992 we movied to Mikuni Calendar premier party to Mikuni American and invited all of the motorcycle media and mikuni distributors to attend, along with the models and big builders.
It was such a great party, I suggested we open it to the public the following year, and weith Mikuni as a 50/50 parter to moved to to the Santa Monica Airport's Museum of Flying

The Mikuni Calendar Motorcycle Show remained and grew at the Sanata Monica Airport through year 1999, but at that point the 1-day Show had become too big for the Museum Facility and the available parking.
And Mikuni Corporation felt the Calendar Show was taking time away from the Carburetior Division's main focus of carburetor development and sales. So Mikuni relinquised its partnership in the Calendar Show to Gianatis Design, and in 2000 the Calendar Show was renamed the Los Angeles Calendar Motorcycle Show and it movedto the Queen Mary Park in Long Beach in association with the Queen Mary Corp. The Queen Mary Park location right on on the Pacific Ocean proved to be an incredible event location for a Motorcycle Show in the hot SoCal in the summer, and in 2001 we expanded the Show to 2-days as it continued to grow.

Mikuni American still remains a Associate Sponsor of the Iron & Lace Calendar, and the Calendar Bike Building Championship at the LA Calendar Motorcycle Show Weekend.

7/18/2010 - For Immediate Release

Chris Flechtner takes a Controversial
Best of Show at the 2010 LA Calendar Motorcycle Show
Long Beach, CA, July 18th 2010 - The 19th annual Los Angeles Calendar Motorcycle Show & Calendar Music Festival presented by Motorcycle Attorneys Brown & Koro, America's premier streetbike event marked its returns to the Queen Mary Event Park in Long Beach on Sunday July 18th 2010. The Show's return to it's original 1-day format was a big success, both in reducing production costs for everyone involved from the bike product manufacturers and vendors, to the builders and spectators traveling from out-of-town and having to book hotels, to producers Jim Gianatsis and the Queen Mary. Visitor attendance was up for this year's new
1-day Show, higher than either of the daily totals the last two years as the motorcycle industry and event attendance has continued to decline across America because of the economy.

What the LA Calendar Show didn't cut back on was its incredible entertainment value for spectators over the course of the jam packed 8 hour day. Fans were again treated to the incredible customs in the Calendar Bike Building Championship, the Calendar Bike Building Seminars, the L&L Motorsport World Record Dyno-Jet Dyno Shootout, over 5 hours of live stage performances in the Calendar Girl Music Festival, West Coast premiers of new model bikes from Los Angeles Indian, SoCal Ducati / Triumph among others, beautiful Calendar Kittens and models everywhere to pose with you for photos, plus complimentary admission aboard the historic Queen Mary ghost ship (normally $12 entry). Not to forget the free Saturday Night Builder's party aboard the Queen Mary with Irish pop rock singer Juliet Tworsey and her band Fire Bug.

All this taking place in a beautiful grass park on the edge of the cool Pacific Ocean which has to be the best Bike Show venue on the planet. All this for a low ticket price of just $25. An incredible value when considering the lost work days traveling to other bike events, standing on hot asphalt all day, and still having to spend $30-$50 to see the separately priced music concerts.

Spectators got to meet top celebrity custom bike builders including past Show winner Jim Giuffra and the AFT Motorsports models who were premiering an all-new bobber race bike named "Kimosabe" which the girls will be racing at Bonneville in August. They conducted a Builder's Seminar with their sponsors Miller Electric and JE Pistons to explain the details of the bike build. Miller also held a raffle drawing on Stage at the end of the day, giving away a $2,150 Miller TIG Welding Kit to one lucky spectator, as well as giving $75 cash-back gift certificates towards Miller equipment purchases to every spectator who stop by their booth. Another great value for the low admission price to the Show.

Other top FastDates.com Calendar builders holding free Calendar Builder Seminars during the day were Russell Mitchell / Exile Cycle and Todd Silicato / Todd's Cycle. While former Best of Show winner and builder to the stars, Shinya Kimura showed off 2 of his latest bikes, one an old Flathead powered alloy faired racer still coated in the dust from a high speed run at El Mirage Dry Lake, and the other a commissioned custom bodied Ducati 999S Superbike named "Edge". Also at the Show in the Metalsport Wheels display signing posters was celebrity custom car builder Chip Foose of Chip Foose Designs.

The Calendar Show's exclusive L&L Motorsports produced World Championship Horsepower Dyno Shoot Out was open up to everyone to see just how strong their streetbike really was with Classes & Awards for all stock and modified American V-Twin and Metric Sportbikes. Taking home top prize again this year was former 545hp record holder John Noonan, posting this year a lower, but still impressive 469.69hp with another turbocharged Kawasaki Hayabusa.

The Calendar Girl Music Festival portion of the Show with its beautiful girl performers headlined the day with recording artist Emily Jaye and her band Frentik. Making a popular return engagement was the AC/DC Tribute rock band Whole Lotta Rosies, plus new Australian singer songwriter Katie Cole teaming up with another Show favorite Elizabeth Nicole, plus the world renown Purrfect Angelz song and dance group. The stage activities were hosted by Elizabeth Nicole who is also a TV and movie actress, and assisting Elizabeth with Awards Presentations at the end of the day was the legendary Keith "Bandit" Ball from Bikernet.com.

A special treat was 18-year old Krystan Lambert - the World's Most Beautiful Magician and star on Fox TV's "Masters of Illusion". Krystan performed on the Main Stage during band change overs and in the Calendar Bike Builder's Seminar Tent between classes with the famed FastDates.com Calendar builders. And if making a live rabbit appear out of thin air wasn't enough, for Krystan's final performance at the end of the day she made the Queen Mary ocean liner disappear, then reappear again before anyone noticed it was missing! Now that's hare raising magic!

The Show itself celebrates the annual world premier of the new 2011 FastDates.com Motorcycle Pin Up Calendars, with Calendar Kittens Melody Schuster & Candise Lakota on hand to meet with fans and autograph the new calendars.

The Calendar Bike Building Championship again featured many of the world's top Pro and Amateur street bike builders competing for cash, awards, and the coveted FastDates.com Calendar Best of Show Trophy. The 10 Calendar Bike Building Championship Classes include the premier Radical Pro Builder Class sponsored by Iron Works magazine, plus 9 other classes for American V-Twin Custom and Street Bikes, Vintage Bikes, as well as Metric Sportbikes and Cruisers

Chris Flechtner / Speed Shop Design returned to the 2010 Show with an all new, completely unique and quite controversial design to take Best of Show. The bike named "Beezerker" features a mid '60s BSA A65 engine in a fully hand built chassis and bodywork with such original features as parallelogram front forks and a frame which houses the oil tank and the hidden exhaust pipes routed up through the rear of the frame to exit at the rear of the seat cowling.

Just like Kenji Negai of Ken's Factory, Japan, who took 1st Place Pro Builder in 2008 and returned with an all new and even more exciting bike to take 2009 Best of Show, Chris also returned for blood the 2nd time around after taking 1st Pro Builder with his retro styled Speed Shop Special #6 last year. Chis is an experienced professional designer who has devoted the last 2 years to build two completely different custom bikes to premier at the LA Calendar Motorcycle Show.

Although Chris may have been an unknown builder on the national scene before his emergence at last year's Calendar Show, he explains, "I've made more than a dozen custom bikes as well as modified and restored numerous classic motorcycles.  I have also built a number of ground up custom cars.  Most recently I have been working part time at my day job as a furniture designer, now devoting most of my time with my own custom bike building company Speed Shop Design the past year to get it moving along faster.  The "Beezerker" intentionally pushes the boundaries of design and blurs time to give you a bike you simply can not place in a particular era, it's meant to be timeless like all good design should be."

Because "Beezerer" isn't powered by a the prerequisite American V-twin engine like most major bike show winners, the internet bogs were abuzz the next day questioning the validity of the Calendar Show's Best of Show winner. But then the LA Calendar Show has never been know for its conventionality having awarded its top trophy in the past to other then other unknown builders with unconventional builds, and now well-respected builders: Dreamcraft Studios, Jesse Rooke, Shiny Kimura, Roland Sands, Russell Mitchell and Kenji Negai.

"Beezerker" was Chris' first attempt in working with aluminum which he used to build the bike's fuel tank and 1930's Metropolis style bodywork. He also built all the hand and foot controls from scratch, including the foot mechanically actuated rear sprocket brake. The bike's originality defies description, if not classification, and could have been entered in nearly every one of the Show's Calendar Bike Building Championship's 10 classes from Modern and Classic Twin, to Street Custom and Sportbike. For 2 years now Chris has entered the Pro Builder Class in the Calendar Bike Building Championship, winning first the Pro Builder Class, and now this time around Best of Show.

Speed Shop Special #6 is featured in the just released 2011 Iron & Lace Calendar and in the FastDates.com Calendar Bike Garage.Beezerker was photographed by Jim Gianatsis on Monday after this year's Show to also appear on the FastDates.com website shortly, and in the next FastDates.com Calendars.

Calendar Girl Music Festival
Rocks the LA Calendar Motorcycle Show Weekend July 18th 2010

Just when you figured the annual LA Calendar Motorcycle Show Weekend, America's premier custom and performance streetbike event weekend couldn't get any hotter, producer Jim Gianatsis has turned up the burners one more notch. The exciting new Calendar Girl Musical Festival, an incredible entertainment extravaganza of beautiful and talented girls performing great music and sexy dances, has been added to the Motorcycle Show's weekend activities. A stand alone event for lovers of great music and beautiful girls, the Calendar Girl Music Festival will run non stop all weekend long and is included with general admission to the Calendar Motorcycle Show Weekend, plus the new Calendar Bike Show Bike Swap Meet and historic Queen Mary Ocean Liner. It all takes place each day in the beautiful Queen Mary Event Park in Long Beach, CA, the weekend of July 18th 2010.

Included with admission is the Calendar Girl Music Festival with beautiful girl performers including recording artist Emily Jaye and her band Frentik, the AC/DC Tribute rock band Whole Lotta Rosies, singer songwriters Katie Cole and Elizabeth Nicole, and the world renown Purrfect Angelz song and dance show.

Headlining the 2010 Calendar Girl Music portion of the Show with 2 performance sets is singer songwriter and pop rocker Emily Jaye and her band Frentik featuring guitar and synth driven songs with pop savvy, and alt appeal.  Despite the in-your-face and empowered lyrics of Frentik front woman, Emily Jaye (EJ) “I’m not a bitch, I just don’t like you”, guys and girls alike come out time after time to see the band’s ass kicking shows throughout the LA club scene. 
 
"EJ’s live performance is reminiscent of a young Pat Benatar, with the energy of contemporary rock bands like Paramore and No Doubt… "[she] changes emotion with the songs and dances frenetically about, yet exudes cool and confidence.” – LA Rock Music Examiner

Elizabeth Nicole (left) got her start as a 10 year old child actor on TV soaps like Port Charles and 7th Heaven. Later In high school she turned her attention to music writing, singing and playing on keyboards some very sexy pop rock ballads in a style uniquely her own. We first came across Elizabeth and her incredible musical talent on her MySpace.com page about a year ago, hooked up with her as she performed at a couple of small venues around Los Angeles where she totally blew us away in person with her multi musical talents. We just had to have her a our Show before she became to famous. You can buy and download her full album of original songs on her MySpace page. Ironically since graduating high school, Elizabeth has been leading a double life and has also been adding Hollywood movie actress to her resume. She currently appears as a backup singer in the current hit comedy Walk Hard - The Dewey Cox Story. Has just completed co-staring and singing in the feature musical scene teen drama - All Ages Night, and in the drama thriller Cornered! with Steve Guttenberg.

This just could be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see and meet Emily, Katie and Elizabeth in person as they headline and perform exclusively for the Music Festival their longest extended full band sets ever. These highly talented and attractive singer songwriters on the verge of breaking out, big time!

Date and Time: July 18th Saturday 10am - 6pm,
Admission: $25 1-Day, Children $10.

Weapons of Mass Seduction!
Purrfect Angelz Continue to Heat Up the LA Calendar Motorcycle Show

Hi Res Image: Russell Mitchell / Exile Cycles and the Purrfect Angelz
http://www.FastDates.com/BikeShow2006/06LABikeShow.AngelzRussellHiRes.jpg

So why does Russell Mitchell, star of TV's Build or Bust and featured custom bike builder in our Iron & Lace Custom Motorcycle Pinup Calendar, have such a big smile on his face? It's because we just told him all those beautiful girls he's posing with of the famed Purrfect Angelz show group will be performing all weekend long in expanded performances guaranteed to decimate attendees at the Los Angeles Calendar Motorcycles Show & Calendar Girl Music Festival, America's premier custom and performance streetbike event.

The Purrfect Angelz have performed at the Calendar Motorcycle Show the last 3 years in their original 5-girl group, performing two 20 minute sets on stage each day to the screaming admiration of jammed pack crowds. But we can never have too much of a good thing, particularly where there's beautiful singing, lap dancing, fire twirling, burlesque shaking, cart wheeling, lingerie and bikini clad girls involved. The fame and the size of the group has been growing these few years (for obvious reasons!) and Purrfect Angelz show director Lisa Ligon asked if she could bring their newer, bigger, better, tighter, bouncier, curvier, more perfectly endowed 9-girl Purrfect Angelz Show to blitzkrieg the Calendar Show from this year on. Who were we to tell her "No"?

The biggest performance day for the Angelz at this year's Show will take place on Saturday where the previous two 20-minute show sets will now serve just as a warm up teaser for 3, yes that's THREE different 1-Hour Purrfect Angelz Stage Shows! from their 3 different world and cross country tours.

The Angelz's feature stage shows will kick off at 12 noon on Saturday with their first one hour show called "Honky Tonk Ba Donka Donk" which they performance at major country and western music venues across America. Cowboy chaps and tiny bikinis never looked this good in Broke Back Mountain. Then at 2:30pm will be their "Salute the Troops" a patriotic medley from the Angelz's USO Tour which they performed for our troops in Afghanistan -with their Weapons of Mass Seduction so obvious we don't need George Bush to find where they're hiding (but you can mount your own invasion at the Angelz's picture autograph table afterwards). The Angelz will wrap up the day at 6pm with the "Biker Babe Banging Bash" which they perform at major biker events across America including Sturgis and Daytona - guaranteed to get the fans up, and bring the house down, and help close just the first incredible day at the world's hottest Motorcycle Show!

MEOW! Oh my god, how Purrfect is this? But are you man enought to survive it for 4 hours on Saturday with even more beautiful girls, and then again on Sunday! Oh yah, there'll be some cool bikes there, too...

For complete details go to LA Calendar Motorcycle Show.

AFT Customs to premier newest custom "Kemosabe"
at the  2010 LA Calendar Motorcycle Show July 18th
Custom Honda Bobber Built and to be Piloted
by the ATF Models for Bonneville World Record Attempt

Long Beach, CA, May 1st 2010 - Reigning LA Calendar Bike Building Champions, AFT Customs of Martel, CA, with owner designer Jim Guiffra and his AFT Motorsports Model Agency spokesmodels (AFTcustoms.com), will again use this year's 2010 LA Calendar Motorcycle Show on Sunday July 18th at the Queen Mary Event Park, Long Beach, CA to premier their latest custom built motorcycle "Kemosabe". Then after the Calendar Show the AFT crew and the bike will head to the legendary Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah to participate in the BUB Speed Trials where two of the girl builders, Sukhee and Shelby, will pilot the bike on timed runs. Also helping with the bike build and attending the events are models Cyndi, Sara, Malanie and Katy.

The AFT crew are no strangers to premiering new bikes at the Calendar Motorcycle Show Weekend having garnered the coveted "Best of Show" award in 2008 with their Yamaha Royal Star based custom "Er Head." Last year they returned with "LoLA" a 2009 Honda VXT1300 Pro Street custom to take 1st place in the Metric Custom class. After the Show their winning bikes were photographed by Calendar Show producer Jim Gianatsis for the FastDates.com Iron & Lace Custom Motorcycle PinUp Calendar, the new 2011 edition of which premiers at this year's Show.

Past Year's AFT LA Calendar Motorcycle Show Winners:

http://www.FastDates.com/BikeShow2008/BikeShow2008Coverage/BS08.332BestShow.jpg

"Kemosabe means faithful friend in Comanche, explains Guiffra. "It's the nickname Indian sidekick Tonto used for his partner "The Lone Ranger" in the classic old TV series from the 1960s.

AFT Customs is all about our friendships. All the AFT Model Agency Girls are working together with me build this bike, just as they have with all our past Calendar Show premiered bikes. We are like a family. We wanted our close friends in the Northern California custom bike builder community to be a part of this build as well so that it represented the Nor Cal scene & the support we have for each other. Each builder was given artistic creativity as long it fit our theme. The build is being fully documented and filmed for a upcoming TV show, which has been a lot of fun. The approach is different from what you've seen in the past."

The AFT Agency models again went all out for this year's build which is a "Bobber" style custom based on a Honda VT750 V-twin streetbike. Miller Welding came on board as a sponsor and sent an instructor to help the girls improve their TIG welding. Guiffra's aim with the AFT Model Agency is to supply the Motorsports Industry with attractive spokesmodels for trade shows and consumer event, models who are knowledgeable in talking to customers about the products and companies they represent. Being involved in building some of the word's winning-est custom bikes featured in Calendars, magazines and on TV, and attempting world land speed records at Bonneville certainly makes them well qualified.

Product suppliers and sponsors for Kemosabe include Cole Foster - fairing for headlight;  Satya / Alan Kraus - h/bar risers and wheel rotor centers; Brian Schimke - tail light, exhaust tip;  Kirk Taylor - foot pegs; Greg Westbury - gas cap; Duane Ballard - leather work; Bozzie Customs - engine porting & polishing; Todd Evans - paint, Lyndall Racing Brakes; Avon Tyre; Avon grips; Works Connection; Alloy Art -controls, JE Piston, Web Cam, Motion Pro; Kingup and Easton.
