Studio Motor Custom Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight

Here's a nice piece of custom craftsmanship form our Indonesian fellows at Studio Motor: an 1200 Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight which came in the shop pretty mauled after a serious crash breaking a lot of stuff about the bike.

A motorcycle accident is not a good even in anyone's lives, but the crash meant the dawn of a new life for the thrashed 1200 Sportster. Repairing, re-thinking, modifying and finishing the building of the new motorcycle took 2 months, but the results are truly nifty and the fresh Sportster proudly displays its matte black new ferocious look.

Footpegs had to be replaced and the tank needed rebuilding; using 1.2 mm metal sheets, the guys at Studio Motor not only managed to build a slightly bigger tank, but have also kept its design very close to the original one.

Underbar mirrors, wrapped minimalist, straight-pipe exhausts and a Roland Sands air filter cap installed, and the 1200 Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight could prowl the streets once more. A truly nice rebuild!
