Night train custom bobber
Here is a fully customized Harley Davidson FXSTB Night Train. It has been extensively customized into an Old School Bobber style motorcycle. It has an 88 inch Twin Cam TC88B counterbalanced engine which means this Bobber runs and idles extremely smooth. The heart of this build is ALL HARLEY DAVIDSON. The stock frame, engine, and transmission means this will be registered and insured as a true Harley Davidson rather than the full custom it looks like. What this means to the buyer is that it will always hold its value, much cheaper insurance, and modern Harley reliability.
This Night Train has been modified with a 200mm rear tire with a custom swingarm mounted rear fender which hugs the tire closer than any traditional frame mounted fender ever could. It has a custom brown leather spring seat and a Salinas Boys Bobber gas tank with pop up cap. The front end consists of black powder coated raked billet triple trees with matching black lower legs with shaved fender mounts. The 10" black mini apes, chrome Harley hand controls, and retro style rubber grips really set off the old school styling. Because of the custom gas tank, the dash has been removed and the stock ignition switch has been mounted in a custom bracket on the down tubes. The black Joker Machine Chopper pipes sound as good as they look and are equipped with removable baffles. It has a billet derby mounted license plate mount with led brake light and billet mini bullet turn signals. All cables are braided stainless steel. The carburetor has been re-jetted to utilize the increased air flow provided by the K&N Forcewinder air cleaner. The only apologies on this build is that the rear sidewall has been marked by the chain being misaligned by the previous owner. This has been corrected and actually looks like part of the tread pattern. The sheetmetal has been professionally painted in a matte black very similar to Harley's Denim Black. The finishing touch is the Original Harley Arrowhead tank emblems that were used on 1959-1960 model years. The battery is brand new and the bike fires right up and runs and shifts flawlessly. This is truly a one of a kind motorcycle and pictures do not do it justice. Please contact me at 347-249-4099 with any questions. $13,500 OBO

Hows it going J, it appears im about 6 years too late to this party but im absolutely in love with this bike and had a few questions if youre willing to answer.
What size rear wheel is this? 18? fronts 21 i assume?
what kind of triple trees did you use to achieve the rake?
id like to build a swingarm bike with a similar stance
she looked great !
