The Appeal
If you're the sort of biker who likes to slip under the radar and go about one's day unnoticed, this probably isn't the motorcycle for you.
The Daytec Goliath is a radical custom chopper designed by renowned builder Russell Mitchell in Los Angeles. With its S&S 124-inch V-twin engine, Prowler six-speed transmission, and a Daytec frame built with a 40-degree rake, it's a striking example of American-style custom motorcycle building brought to UK roads with full SVA approval.
This particular example has been assembled using components from well-regarded names in the custom motorcycle world, including Performance Machine, Thunder Cycle, Accutronix, and Arlen Ness. Scremin Eye did the paintwork, while Goods Fabrication, known for their F1 work in the UK, fabricated the exhausts. AN Motorsport also polished the hoses to F1 specification. With over £40,000 reportedly invested and first-place finishes at several bike shows to its name, the vendor says this Goliath is a remarkable machine to ride and admire.img-2693.jpg648.68 KB
