Warr’s in Chelsea has been responsible for maintenance, parts machining, and engine work. I have a second bike that is my daily, this has been used purely for leisure and kept garaged, plugged-in, and under covers.

A lot of care was taken collecting the parts that make up this build, an international lineup of the best available for Sportsters, from San Diego Customs, Lyndall Racing and Roland Sands in California to Sato Racing in JPN. When putting this build together, I wanted to keep the Harley character that make Sportsters special, while improving how it rides. The 17’ wheels + upgraded suspension, combine with a torquier setup and a Rekluse centrifugal clutch to make this bike easy to ride in traffic or on the twisties. The centrifugal clutch and Brembo upgrades allow the bike to operate like a scooter in traffic, saving you from the HD clutch arm pump. With this bike, you can let go of the clutch and just twist the throttle when you want the bike to crawl forward and use one finger to engage the mega Brembo RCS19 to bring you to a standstill. Def recommend watching the video on the clutches below, I can't live without it now. The bike sits taller than stock, Ohlins rear and Showa front suspension give you (more) feedback at the apex and more clearance in London's pot-hole-ridden streets. The LED headlight is a major upgrade from the HD unit and the internally wired ProTaper bars give you an unencumbered and clean dash to look at when you are driving. The new rev counter has a shift light that brings the dash to life during those spirited rides. This Sportster is an all-around street tracker, with an upright riding position that is lighter and more maneuverable than anything traipsing out of Milwaukee. 

NO LOW BALLIN’ please, reach out if you need more info on the bike or want to have a chat about any of the work done to it. Apologies in advance as I am traveling a lot lately for work so will have to arrange viewings with some lead time.
