Deus 1200 V-Twin café racer

According to Deus, their 1200 V-Twin Café Racer
is, "based on a new HD Nightster (not the special Twilight edition, why HD
thought plump 17yr old girls would want a hog...beyond me)." The lost
opportunity to draw a connection between custom motorcycles and sparkle vampires
aside, we're really liking the subtle good looks of this custom Harley.
Unlike some other Deus Ex Machina customs, this Café racer is very restrained,
relying on its muscular proportions instead of flashy details. That's not to say
it doesn't have great detailing -- check out the tiny cowl over the headlight
lending the front end a sense of aggression for an example. The only thing we're
a little disappointed with is the afterthought of a plate bracket. Now, if we
could just buy something like this straight from the factory.
Details of the conversion, straight from Australia:
modified Yammy SR400 tank, quick release strap, new taps etc.
custom fender'ectomy....warren got handy with the drill bits
custom 2 into 1, retuned fuel maps to suit
single saddle conversion
kept the belt drive, chains look nicer but the customer wanted his pants to stay
up.
