This 1992 Harley-Davidson Softail Custom is a unique blend of classic and custom. It's been transformed into a bike more akin to a Fatboy, with a wide rear kit and a custom pearl paint job. The Harley Softail is a retro-iconic bike that recaptures much of the brand's heritage for the 80s and 90s, complete with the brand's first V-Twin since 1909. It quickly became a favourite among motorcycle enthusiasts, and a prime target for modification.
This particular bike has been further enhanced with a host of custom features, including a Mikuni flat slide, V&H pipes, and a Screamin Eagle performance ignition kit. It's a bike that's been loved and ridden, with an MOT until October 2024 and only 26,195 miles on the clock.
