Default Heritage ”Japan style”

Not mine. (Still rides my ’98 FXDWG).
But I would like to own it.

So why do I call it ”Japan style”?
Well, I found the pictures on a web site from the land of the rising sun, that’s why.

Details of the bike?
Nope, saved the pictures years ago, and can’t find the source again.

I’ll second that opinion.
Love the ‘bad-***’ look of the big front wheel.

I like that better than their "bosozoku" bikes

They also use Twinkies for that BOSOZOKU look - finally the Twinkie found its calling

Built int he style of Shinya Kimura of Zero Engineering. Super popular overseas as a style but most of the Japanese riders have Shovels and Evos. I have one of his knuckles.

I'd say technically a bobber. Japanese customs are very different but likeable.

Thought it was going to be the Grey Ghost, only Japanese/Harley heritage I'm aware of.
