Like most H-D owners, he changed a few things here and there until he decided to up the ante on the TC 88 and that’s when things changed quickly. “I had just popped a 95” big-bore kit in it and had to run 50 miles at 50 mph. I was riding up to meet my father Pat and brother Justin at the Harley shop and ride down to the beach with them. I said, ‘Ah screw it, I’ll just ride it and...

  Anyway, all I had was the tiniest bit of written info on it, barely a sentence so I asked Stan to email me a pic and in two seconds (I think he’s a really proud papa here) I was looking at this wicked cute, wicked long Sporty chopper. Stan’s built himself an eye catcher here and whether you like it or not, it’s still gonna catch your eye. Oh you could casually turn your head away...

  What is a little different take on using a Buell as a donor bike was Kat Daddy’s intention of doing something quite different than stock, but keeping some of the Buell flavor in the final product. “The bike was totally built by Kat Daddy Customs using a 2002 Buell M2 Cyclone as the donor bike. I wanted to keep the look of the Buell, but make it lower and longer,” said Kat Daddy....

  Getting that oil leak fixed apparently was a high priority as Stan got to work on the engine basically replacing anything and everything he could. The 80” Evo engine got bored and stroked until it encapsulated 103-cubic-inches of combustion space along with a lot of other high-performance details. That high-performance aspect is not a big surprise as we previously featured a 202...

  Take this classic example of a DP Customs’ build that was once a stock 2000 XL1200 in a former life. The end result is not beyond radical or anything, but a really nice, good looking cafe bike that you can still ride the pee out of and not break the bank getting there. The DP boys listen to their customer’s needs, wants, desires, whatever, and often build them the bike they...

Stupid is not the case here with Steve Anderson, Custom Chrome Inc.’s main man in charge of building and warrantying all RevTech motors sold in North America. You just couldn’t be stupid, silly, or otherwise in an important position like that. But, you can be a resourceful, imaginative, and even a bit of a whimsical dreamer/designer/builder with the knowledge and resources he has...

  It might not be obvious at first, but this bike started out as a 1999 1200 Custom and the sporty tough-guy attitude it ended up with is in direct contrast to the original. Instead of the stock laid-back cruiser style, DP went after an aggressive, corner-carving look that looks even greater (and tougher) than the sum of the parts involved and more importantly, the strict budget is...

  The 2007 FLSTNI was not Scott’s first bike, but it was his first Harley. “This is my fourth bike and my first Harley. An Ultra Ground Pounder was my first bike when I was 24 and I sold that and bought a sportbike and sold it and had a Redneck chopper built after that. I still have that one along with the Deluxe,” said Scott. “Motorcycles, I love ‘em man. The first show Jesse...

  And no, I’m not saying that it was a haphazard project when I say “strewn around” as this bike has too much thought put into it to mean that. Steve began with a old 1200 Sporty which is almost the perfect P-A bike with its air-cooled, carbed, low-tech engine bringing more than adequate zombie getaway power at a moment’s notice. After a top end re-fresh and a bit of useful...
