2000 Harley Davidson FLSTF

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

To have a great looking custom build, reliable with top shelf parts, and something fast enough with controls and seat that suits me.

What motivated you to start your project?

To have a badass fast bike with a look that turns heads and it’s fun doing it.

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the bike?

Bolt on rake, excluded the Fatboy front end with a softail rear fender. And the Badlander Seat is cool too with Kyrocyra Integrated tail, brake, and turn signal taillight with Headwind 7” headlamp.JayBrake forward controls with Hydraulic Clutch/Brake & hand controls. Oh and the 21″ chrome spoke front wheel.

What are you most proud of?

The overall look, performance, and comfort. The factory Sinister Blue Pearl helps too, pops with the chrome beautifully.

What do other people say about your motorcycle?

Everybody loves it, the sound, the rake, the color, the speed, etc. It just seems to be a head turner and everyone comes up to check it out when I pull in anywhere.
