New H-D front suspension (leaf-spring)
I don't think you will find very many of these parts in the H-D catalog. The engine is S&S.
Check out the FRAM oil filter under the license plate.
The leaf spring doubles as a front fender and the rear fender doubles as an oil reservoir.

The front forks might be made from valve rocker arms from a very large diesel, like might be found in a ship.
The wheels could be Dyna Street Bob, at least the front wheel.
It is a design that you probably won't forget, even if it causes stomach upset to our more sensitive H-D brethren north of the border.

The nice shiny motor screws up the whole look. He should have went with a distressed, black, or brushed steel look. His current set up makes it painfully obvious that the distressed "rat bike" look is completely fabricated: A poser bike.
