Tarhan Telli was born in İstanbul on 21st June of 1980 at night. He had his primary education in Şişli Terakki School. Since he was hyperactive and ambitious, he was an energetic kid who was in full of beans in the class no more than 20 minutes where “Mendil Kapmaca” (Grabbing the Handkerchief) was played popularly. At that time, his teachers yet observed that he was very distinctive from other students and informed his parents. This hyper teen continued his education in Şişli Terakki after completing his primary education, but due to disciplinary problems, he had to leave the school in the first year and enroll to Özel Boğaziçi Lisesi (The Private Bosphorus High School) where he became popular among his friends just like he was in his primary school. Finally, Tarhan Telli graduated from Günaydın College and showed his maximum interest to martial arts among the sports branches which he started to do in 1995. Then he continued this sport as trainer. He came first in Turkey’s Snow Man Jack Daniel’s snowboard championship in 1998 and 1999. Likewise, he became the Turkey’s youth champion in water ski branch in 2000.

Tarhan Telli, whose university life was much more successful than his high school life, concerned himself about designing and improved his creative aspect. He had a design education for 5 years and moved to California after that. And there, he got trainings on motorcycle making from the world’s bests, and then returned to Turkey. In consequence of all his such works, he created the FIRST TURKISH DESIGN motorcycle and named it as TT CUSTOM CHOPPERS. Tarhan Telli, who had both the design and patent of this first Turkish brand in the previous years, got the title of “Master” in 2009 and blazed a trail again. He continued his success by receiving the best performance price in 2010.

The TT CUSTOM CHOPPERS brand which was created by Tarhan Telli with intensive efforts and devotions, is now on the first rank among the assertive “custom” companies which make productions under their brand names. He produced more than 100 motorcycles for a motorcycle company that do not make mass production. 100 hand-made very unique motorcycles, some owners of which are among worldwide known sportsmen, racers and Hollywood stars… Tarhan Telli is producing the world’s most expensive and special motorcycles, and going on receiving another offer every single day. He says “I’m a Turk and so my brand, and it will remain on this territory”, and keeps on bringing down the world’s giants, who do like to work with him. Discovery Channel made a documantary on the life of Tarhan Telli. And he appeared as a guest in more than 50 TV programmes in TRT1 and ZDF. The TT CUSTOM CHOPPERS brand is growing day by day under his leadership and working is implemented in a team spirit.
