I saw this machine in the flesh as it was entered in the 2024 London Bike Shed Custom Bike Show last May. It was one of the most beautiful bikes displayed and easily the only H-D worth coveting. The bulky squat stance combined with the livery gave it the appearance of a powerful brute waiting to explode off the line. Kind regards from Canada. 🇨🇦
@@RACER_TV I am going back to the 2025 Bike Shed show because it was that good; the bikes, the venue, the camaraderie of riders. Have you been? If not I highly recommend you do so. And if you do I would love to meet you. Lots of good content for your channel. 🇨🇦
Uma moto muito bem balanceada em sua modificação e que me deu, por assim dizer, água na boca para acelerar em uma estrada. Parabéns pelo seu trabalho neste canal icônico!
Definitely a very nice project! The rear sets, exhaust and headlight cover alone are very cool improvements. And, as always, thank you for Racer TV, the Café Racers only choice! Hope all is well with you my friend. We’re having very beautiful fall weather here. Hope you are too. Ride safe! Cheers:)
As always, thank you Dear friend for sharing your opinion.I am glad for you. Everything is fine here. Interestingly, today the weather is very strange here. Some moments with sun and some clouds, and then suddenly, rain. Almost like British weather. Lol. You too. Thank you. :) Cheers
Powerbricks did beautiful work from that elephant. Harley to me is like bringing an excavator to a microsurgery session, so that's a huge design success to me. I like the sound, it's not like Ducati but that's another Universe. Thank you Victor, you do it amazingly nice every time.
Excellent video Victor, as always. Timothy has done an outstanding job with this build , hopefully Harley Davidson will take note and build one. I think they would sell lots, it's a very cool bike . Take care and ride safe mate. Cheers
Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. Yes, I also hope that Harley Davidson sees this video, and can release a version similar to this. Thanks. You too. :) Cheers
Definitely a beautiful build. One of the challenges with the customization of this bike is what Harley did, or didn’t do, on the left side of the engine. I’m waiting to see how builders deal with the jumble of exposed plumbing and wiring. It just looks like Harley designers spent all their time creating covers and panels for the right side of the bike, and then when it came to the left they side just said “to hell with it” 😳.
Lool. Yes, I also noticed this detail of the visible wires and cables. But if you look closely, the right side of the Sportster isn't pretty either. You can see them next to the front axle of the swingarm. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers
As a Buell owner I really really love this build. Takes away all the Harley-weirdness. Just a pity he sticked to the oversized front tire. I'm pretty certain with a more conventional 180 rear 120 front setup it will ride (and look) better.
i like this bike from the begining, i doesn't have likes from old "true" Harley fanatics, this "revolution engine" has HD call it doesn't make the famous potato potao sound, and the rectangular front light is not traditional. but transformed in that orange cafe racer, it's a real success.
I agree with you 100%, what you describe is why i never purchased a Harley. With the older Harleys i couldn't stand slinging so much mass. And so many Americans push front controls and rear sets are what i always wanted. How can anybody ride with front sets or even really ride. I couldn't stand Harleys built like a couch. Like the song "The Thrill is Gone" that's how i perceived Harleys with their what seemed like 10 pound turn signal stocks and the inability to even corner. If i get a sportster or even the nightster. I know I'll be ordering parts from Holland or Germany. Harley needs to tool up for the next generation of riders. Harley keeps losing ground in the USA. While in countries like Japan there was a time only doctors and lawyers bought Harleys. Cafe Racers will generate interest of the younger generation while couch like Harleys will motivate older touring type riders. For myself I'm old and I'll never ride a couch. By the way i can't figure out why Harley riders refuse to learn how to ride using their footpegs. Feet forward is ridiculous.
Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. Personally, I think that the existence of front footrests, is a consequence of the long straight roads in the USA. But here in Europe, it doesn't really make sense. :) Cheers
Yes, I read about this problem too. But it seems that the real difficulty lies in the force required to apply the handlebars when cornering. But other than that, the bike seems to corner well. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers
Such a great machine and a excelent video...the hd fanatics have specific place in "cais de gaia" with a barrier🤢🤢🤢, they wont let that masterpiece park there but it's far more beautifull then some old ugly things... g Thanks for the vídeo
Realmente essa é a mais bela das belas deste ano Perfeita ⚔️ Vou passar o fim de semana homenageando-a com uma maravilhosa taça de tequila 🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹 Kkkkkk Essa com certeza vai ser a top das tops Irmão video nota 1000 Viva a cerveja e as máquinas maravilhosas 🍹🍹
Lol. Yes, in fact this bike was made to appeal to a different audience. To survive, Harley has to attract newer customers.Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers
If they have fixed all the tech issues then it might be a great bike . I traded mine in after having it in the shop 3 times in specifically for software updates and twice for punctured tires and software updates . It's a cool fast bike with a tiny tank good for 100 miles . But I wanted to ride my bike not have it in the shop for tech issues when I should be riding it .
Ola Victor, you probably don’t know « Joe Bar team ». Not easy to understand for a non-French speaker but a fantastic comic where you can see a very nice sportstrak and a biker spirit from another era... um abraco my freind
Olá Amigo. Interestingly, you are already the second person to tell me about this Joe Bar team comics. :) Thank you my friend for your support. :) Um abraço e Bom fim de semana

If this was made as stock by HD, it would probably be the only Harley that I could see myself buying. Nice video!!
Me too. :) Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers
Ditto!
It's always a pleasure to see a new video from you!

Looks amazing but, IMHO, needs a narrower front tire spinning two discs.

As an Ironhead guy I fully welcome any sporty s rider to the fold.
Lol. If only everyone thought like you. :) It would be very good indeed. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers
I really like the Sportster S, but I read it doesn't turn in all that well, because of the front oversized tire, and it's heavy of course, it's an HD.
Yes, I read about this problem too. But it seems that the real difficulty lies in the force required to apply the handlebars when cornering. But other than that, the bike seems to corner well. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers
Thank you for presenting the project. But no, that is not for me. I need some polished aluminium on a racer😂😂
Lol. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers

LoI didn't know about that detail of the barrier at Cais de Gaia. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Um abraço

Realmente essa é a mais bela das belas deste ano
Perfeita ⚔️

Obrigado amigo Marcelo por partilhar a sua opinião. Não sei se este projeto será o vencedor. Mas acho que tem tudo para entrar no Top 5 :) Um abraço
HD Sportster. I don't know. I'm confused.
It looks like a Harley, but doesn't sound like a Harley.

Nice looking ...... for a sewing machine-kind of toy.
Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers
If it was given to me for nothing, I wouldn't say no, but i wouldn't buy it. Your last Harley café was a beauty thou from 2023.
I see you prefer a more vintage flavor. I understand you perfectly. Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers
Muy linda moto y buen video
Thank you. I'm glad you liked my friend. :) Saludos
Will it run with an RC51?
Lol. I'm sure not. But on the other hand, this one looks a lot cooler. :) Cheers
Geez....I hope Harley-Davidson is watching! But, probably not.
