‘Moto Borgotaro’, A Short Film Documenting the Creation of a Unique Motorcycle in Brooklyn

WARNING: Peter is a badass.

Filmmaker Robert Serrini has created Moto Borgotaro, a short film documenting the process by which Brooklyn mechanic Peter Boggia crafted “Appolonia,” his unique two-wheeled beauty of a ride.

In a little shop well known by those who ride, a one of a kind motorcycle has been given life by a genius savant named Peter Boggia.Peter NEVER allows cameras in his shop, and NEVER gives interviews, so something must be wrong. …It has taken me 5 years, lots of learning, and a decent amount of good Bourbon to allow me to film this. The bike’s name is Apollonia, and she is nothing less then mind blowing.
