Flat track style for the street – This Harley sportster is a "Frankenstein" build – meaning parts were collected over time from here and there. The frame was hauled back from the US, after the owner blew it's engine. A typical set of 19" flat track tyres and rims were sourced from a wrecker in Northern NSW, while the rest of the parts were collected by Sydney tattoo artist, Rhys Gordon; pipes, seat, tail, headlight and handlebars.
He brought the parts he collected for his vision of a flat tracker and left it to our technical team to turn into a full-fledged flat tracker. And that we did.
The straight pipe exhaust produces a vicious sound – a 2 into 1 system that was powder-coated to suit the smokey-dark theme.
Up back, the tail and tiny rear fender is integrated with studded perforated leather seat.
This flat tracker has all the components of a classic flat track racer machine, but with added functionality for everyday city riding – namely, front brakes. The small tank for lightness and high mount exhaust tailpipe brings back balls-to-the-wall racing in its purest form. Wide handlebars with rubber grips for full control of the torquey engine. A vintage guardian bell is added as a personal touch.
A beast of a bike deserves the top riding gear... This Carbon Tech Limited Edition MX helmet by Premier Helmets elevates the riding experience. The brass ventilation holes allow optimum airflow inside the shell - which is lined with high tech fabric which has active carbon filaments. This technology uses thermal properties to minimise moisture. It looks slick with the gunmetal grey paint job without being too predictable. Paired with Gasoline Godspeed Leather Gloves for a bit of POW...
A huge thanks to Rhys Gordon for trusting us with his Harley – can’t wait to see it screaming on the streets.
If you have an idea for your very own custom motorcycle Gasoline Motor Co. can help you make it a reality.
