The Appeal
For many, motorcycle customization is the ultimate expression of individuality and indeed there is an irrefutable appeal to riding a machine you know is totally unique. If one motorcycle is more synonymous with customization than any other, it’s Harley Davidson.
Here we have a beautiful 1993 example which has been built by a specialist in Dorchester in the UK. Besides the frame and engine, everything about this bike is bespoke, utilising parts from other manufacturers and incorporating a number of hand-made components. Powered by a substantial 883 cc V-twin it has ample performance and reportedly rides very well indeed.
For those seeking a one-off bike that’s ready to enjoy or to make their own mark upon, this would be an excellent choice.
