Been spending far too much time on four wheels mainly because I didn't love my excellent Kawasaki ZZR1400
Originally starting discussing this project with Kings Road Customs last year, she is a 1200cc vee twin Harley Davidson, with a Roland Sands stage two tune, which consists of new cams, injectors, screaming eagles EFi tuner and Vance & Hines short shots straight through exhausts.
She has been sat at Elite Painters in Fulham for weeks waiting for my own custom design paint and following broken promise after promise, Kings told me last week that Elite have now gone bust
However they retrieved the tank, mudguards and side panels etc and not only refunded the paint money, but also a chunk of the modification money as a good will gesture
So if you know of a 1st class custom painter/air brusher please let me know (PhilO's bike painter isn't interested and Rocky's number doesn't work)
If you thought my Ducati was loud, this thing is that times 10
Yes I know it doesn't exactly match, but one HAS to have some carbon fibre
Michelin Harley Davidson Scorcher tyres :
Still belt drive despite their recommendation to upgrade to chain and sprockets due to the mods, I hate chains
Handy storage bag :
Extra fuel can because the main fuel tank is tiny and will only give you a 70 mile range tops
The under slung mirrors are brilliant :
Simple dash that actually provides a lot more information than you'd think :
Twin trip meters :
RPM :
Gear Position :
LED Lights, there are actually bright red but look orange in this picture
The bike is also keyless, as you approach the bike with the transponder in your pocket it automatically disables the alarm and rearms as you walk away
As with the trailer it's also been Datatagged :
Always swore that I'd never buy a Harley, but I just couldn't commit to my first choice of a Ducati Deval, because parts of it have been beaten with the ugly stick and second choice the Triumph Thunderbird Storm is badly made
So still plenty to do, custom paint (awesome colour choice that is very difficult to paint so I'm told), some custom graphics (agreed and ordered, but quite a long lead time), recover the seat in brown leather and change the rear shocks to black ones
and Harley haters gonna hate
