'Big Atlas' Is a Big Money Harley Fat Boy 114 Build

Another One

In the world of custom Harley-Davidson motorcycles, few companies have churned out quite as many quality builds as the folks at the German outfit known as Thunderbike. From simple, bolt-on-focused creations to all-out custom rollers and everything in between, Thunderbike continues to impress us with its broad range of builds. That includes its latest, too - this Fat Boy 114 known as "Big Atlas."

Big Money Build

Thunderbike has already churned out its fair share of custom examples of the latest version of the iconic Fat Boy, but Big Atlas takes things even further by throwing a tremendous amount of upgraded parts - not to mention money - at it. The results speak for themselves, however, and we imagine that this bike's new owner can't possibly be disappointed.

Big Bike, Compact Appearance

Those upgrades start with massive 23-inch front and 21-inch rear gloss black GP wheels, while the bike itself can hunker down on top of those rollers thanks to its air suspension. Up front, a brand new 45 mm thick handlebar helps aid in the effort to make this big cruiser look smaller than it actually is, too.

Going Big

Pretty much everything else here is rather large in nature, a list that includes the Fat Boy's single-sided swingarm and its huge perimeter brake at the rear, coupled with a revised front end with two 340 mm brake discs to help slow it all down.

Sportier Look

While all-black is a popular way to go these days, Thunderbike did add a little bit of contrast to this Fat Boy's custom flanks with some orange graphics. With stripes thrown in throughout, it gives the big cruiser a sportier look that fits it perfectly, too.

Par for the Course

Altogether, these modifications give Big Atlas a truly unique presence, one that helps it stand out from the sea of builds out there at the moment. However, given what we've seen from Thunderbike to this point, that doesn't really come as a huge surprise.
