Killer Whale Build Lives Up To Its Name Perfectly

Top of the Chain

When we think of the term "killer whale," we imagine a giant sea creature that resides at the top of the food chain, though in all fairness, it isn't exactly out there doing anything but providing for itself - not taking out other creatures for fun. But Killer Whale is also the nickname for this particular Harley V-Rod build, which was created by the folks at FiberBull - a custom shop located in Valencia, Spain.

Quite Fitting

The first-gen V-Rod has obviously been heavily modified, starting with its all-black appearance that features very few components that aren't finished in that particular hue. It's fitting of the Killer Whale name, though the animal itself does have a bit of white sprinkled in. In this case, you'll only find that on the "Harley-Davidson" logo painted on the tank.

Hand Made

There are loads of cool custom features to be found here, including a hand-made airbox, rear mudguard, side covers, and air filter cover, each of which was laid in fiberglass by the folks at Fiberbull and gives the V-Rod a true custom look.

Custom Seat

The custom seat provides room for two if needed, yet doesn't look too terribly large like some other units out there. It's made with high-density foam and covered in suede-style upholstery, while Rhombus embroidery caps off the look perfectly.

Hot Rod

Up front, a new set of handlebars gives the V-Rod a fresh look, particularly when combined with the bike's rolling stock of choice - a set of black-painted wheels with a massive 240 tire out back. That particular unit gives the Harley a truly muscular look befitting its name and hot rod heritage.

Stock Power

The finishing touch is a modified rear suspension, which helps keep the bike planted to the ground and put the power of its V-twin engine to the pavement as well. That particular unit appears to be stock, as FiberBull didn't mention any sort of modifications in that regard, but this V-Rod looks cool enough to compensate for that oversight.
