Default Opinion

The great thing about the Harley life is individuality. I must disagree with almost everyone here. This guy saw a vision and did it. No page 27 on the CC Catalog. If everyone was the same in this life than I would not do it. Since when do every Harley riders have to fit in a mold? Personally I would not put it on my bike but I congratulate this guy for doing it. Everything Harley or handmade is good by me.

Personally the only thing that looks a bit off is that the bike is mostly blacked out and it just does not flow. Otherwise I think its unique. I think as someone already mentioned if he blacked it out it might fit better.

If the guy was a member here would you guys be talking the same way about the bike? I hope he doesn't care what anyone else thinks and is happy with his mod!

It don't have a front fender, the light looks like it came off an Indian bike, and the front end is inverted. Is this something that you would like to do to your's?

It does not matter what I would do it is what he did to his liking and taste. Do you like your bike as it is? I bet you do, there are those who would not.

And forgive me if I am wrong but that does not appear to have inverted fork tubes that I can see. Looks very much like a standard FL front end with the fork covers and a nacelle, the only difference is that it has an Indian/or Indian style teardrop headlight.

There are several members here who have chosen to remove their front fender. They seem to like it. No one says you have to.

Maybe it is so much chrome up front on a somewhat blacked out bike that it looks phony, or photoshopped at first glance.
I applaud the owner for being original, that is what it should be about.

I love the fat front tire,the forks, the absence of the fender and the twisted spokes. I just don't like the headlight.
