Harley-Davidson Sportster description
Custom 2002 883 Sportster. (well that is what it says on the
title) This custom build started with a 2002 883 Sportster as a donor bike for
the title. Since the original motor had almost 20K miles, it was sent to the
local Harley Davidson shop for a complete top to bottom rebuild. (BTW: I have
every receipt for this build) The rebuild incorporated new pistons, rods, crank,
bearings, carb, 1200cc upgrade kit and all the Screamin Eagle upgrades including
a complete HD chrome kit. The motor is basically new. The bike has about 500
miles on it since the build. Starting with just the bare frame, a custom swing arm from a
wide tire kit for a 240 rear tire was added. This with the addition of 10.5”
rear shocks provided a 2” stretch and 2” drop to the rear. The front
incorporates stock down tubes with a 6 deg wide glide triple tree achieving a 2”
front stretch and 2” drop in the front. The frame was then professionally cut and chopped to
incorporate a custom Built Corbin drop seat. A custom, Triumph inspired, oil tank was fabricated and the
battery was relocated to the underside of the swing arm. The change to an
Optimum battery allowed for a smaller overall size which made all the
modifications possible. All the electrical wiring and components are hidden out
of sight under the seat. A standard SportBob tank with a 2” extension was used for a
lowered sleeker look. The fenders were designed and cut from fender blanks. The
seat started as a Corbin Softail seat which was then modified to fit the fender
and tank. High quality Dani Leather from Italy was then chosen and sent to
Corbin for recovering. Carlini bars with a mono center gauge from Detroit
Digital is used with HD controls. The front 18”wheel was found on EBay as a NOS item. The
front wheel design was then custom machined into a rear pulley blank. The 18”
rear wheel is a custom polished and chromed solid blank to achieve a
“see-through” effect. Both wheels were then wrapped with Metzler rubber. Wet Dreamz supplied set of PipeDreamz pipes to match the
curvature of the bottom of the gas tank. To achieve a clean look, the bike was sprayed with PPG Luminescence
3 stage paint. Green hidden LED lights illuminate the bike for night ridding. A lot of time and money was invested I into this custom
build project. I have $30K in parts alone into this bike and have a book with
every receipt to show for it. I have had several magazine requests to publish
the bike but never found the time to follow-up with any of them. Unfortunately,
since the completion two years ago, I only have put about 500 miles on it. I rode it twice last year and haven’t ridden
it this year yet. I have a hot rod which I would rather drive on nice days. It
turns out that after some soul searching, I’m just not a motorcycle guy. So, I
would rather see it go to someone who will enjoy and appreciate it. The only
fault with the bike is the back wheel and rear pulley now has some pitting in
the chrome from sitting. This can easily be re-chromed if desired. It is truly a one of a kind. I have won numerous “Best of
Show” awards with this. It turns head anywhere you go. Low Reserve. Clear title
in hand. Sold as-is. GREAT DEAL! Easily serviced at your local HD dealer. No bidders with a feedback below 10 will be accepted. Bike: Year/Model: 2002

Wed, 15 Jan 2014What do you get when a lifelong horse rider and motorcyclist from Nebraska gets inspired to combine his two loves? Why, motorcycle stirrups, of course! The idea came to Devin Santana, proprietor of Nebraska City Iron Works, one day when he was riding his Harley-Davidson down the road and looked down at his feet.
Who To Watch In The AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series is set to kick off this weekend at Daytona International Raceway, and the competition looks set to be as close as ever.In the contest’s three-year history, the combined margin of victory stands at just over two tenths of a second. And last year’s dogfight saw ninth position take the checkered flag less than eight tenths removed from the victory. Each previous contest has developed into a full-blown drafting war, with the class’ evenly matched machinery testing the tactical acumen of its pilots as they negotiate the high banks within inches of one another.
