Harley Davidson Sportster Café Racer

The Sportster is the longest running model in the Harley Davidson’s history. it’s relatively easy to transform the Sportster into a more agile machine, simply by stripping away superficial parts, as well as by improving the performance and its dynamics.

And that is exactly what this motorcycle showcases; the stock seat and handlebars were swapped in favour of a Burly Café Tail and Burly Clubman Bars respectively, while the forks were rebuilt with Burly lowered fork springs, preload adjusters and a Roland Sands Design front fork brace. A pair of 15” Burly Stiletto shock absorbers at the rear, a pair of rear sets from Chainsikle (which help to move the rider’s foot/leg position back), 18″ RideWright rear wheel, and Metzeler rubber.

On the performance front, a Vance & Hines air cleaner and a set of Vance & Hines 2-into-1 pipes are accompanied by a re-jetted carburettor. There you go, a neat Harley-Davidson Sportster Café Race that doesn’t break the bank or require a ton of tools.
