The Kreater Way... By Konstantine Zakzanis Voodoo is a derivative of the world’s oldest known religions, which have been around in Africa since the beginning of human civilization. Within the voodoo society, there are no accidents. Practitioners believe that nothing and no event has a life of its own without a “Kreater.” The universe is all one. Scientists know that. Nature knows it. George Tchor of Kreater Custom Motorcycles in Toronto, Ontario knows it. And it is only befitting that the bike you are looking at is named Voodoo. Whilst sharing a Corona one late Friday evening after a night of wrenching, I ask Mr. Tchor to tell me about the magnificent Kreation – that is the Voodoo sitting in his showroom – that bespeaks of barbaric, primitive, and sexually licentious tone with its ever presence.

Voodoo is a derivative of the world’s oldest known religions, which have been around in Africa since the beginning of human civilization. Within the voodoo society, there are no accidents. Practitioners believe that nothing and no event has a life of its own without a “Kreater.” The universe is all one.
Scientists know that. Nature knows it. George Tchor of Kreater Custom Motorcycles in Toronto, Ontario knows it. And it is only befitting that the bike you are looking at is named Voodoo.
Whilst sharing a Corona one late Friday evening after a night of wrenching, I ask Mr. Tchor to tell me about the magnificent Kreation – that is the Voodoo sitting in his showroom – that bespeaks of barbaric, primitive, and sexually licentious tone with its ever presence.

“After several months of conflicting construction, I finally completed her transformation in one monu-mental moment when I placed her tank on the frame. During the assembly, late one evening, Jimi Hendrix’s Voodoo Child deafeningly colored the background of my shop and as her aggressive profile evolved in the weeks and months, it was that one magical moment that encapsulated her personality and soul.” It was as he says “a moment of pure magic.”
And what a personality! Voodoo bespeaks with its sultry curves constructed entirely from the hands of its Kreater. Voodoo boasts a drive train that will leave behind any magical spellwith a 124-cubic inch entirely polished engine and 6-speed Baker transmission. Moreover its sheet metal was entirely spun and fabricated from front to back without compromise.The magic in Voodoo of course is in the details, and if one casts a careful look, one can see that Voodoo boasts engineering trickery that will leave you in a trance.
The fact is, for those who see it, Voodoo is powerfully imaginative and even more empowering to those who are next in line for a custom Kreater motorcycle. Indeed Kreateris the divine presence behind this build and all two wheel rides that roll out of this shop with nothing but soul.
