For this episode of Shed Talks, we welcome Shaun Guardado of Suicide Machine Company.

Born and raised in Long Beach, California, Shaun joins us to share the story behind the shop he built alongside his brother Aaron, his relationship with Harley-Davidson, and the experiences that shaped his path as a builder, racer, and entrepreneur.

We also dive into one of Suicide Machine Company’s latest projects: a Harley-Davidson Pan America ST transformed into a race-inspired streetfighter. Along the way, we explore Shaun’s creative process and how he combines emerging technologies with traditional fabrication techniques, moving seamlessly between CAD models, 3D printers, welders, and hand tools.

A conversation about craftsmanship, family, pushing limits, and Southern California motorcycle culture.
