A couple of days ago, we showed you something called Red Devil. It was a V-Twin Racing Street Custom modified by the German guys over at Thunderbike with the goal of giving the American muscle bike something they describe as a beast-mode appearance. And now comes Green Poison.
Part of a duo together with the Red Devil, Green Poison is also based on the famed VRSC that has been part of the Harley-Davidson lineup between 2001 and 2017. That was a time when the bike maker was still trying to take on the muscle bikes of the competition, especially the ones wearing Japanese names.
“V-Rod models are the athletes of the Harley family,” says Thunderbike about the base motorcycles for its projects, and as any athletes, these ones too needed some upgrades to perform a tad better.
Sporting a body kit that is a notch less aggressive than the one seen on the Red Devil, the Green Poison doesn’t cut corners either. It features all those tiny custom elements that make a motorcycle stand out – the toppers, mirrors, and turn signals, among others – but also some mechanical upgrades. The latter include the fitting of an air ride suspension or an exhaust system from Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde.
The massaged body of the muscle Harley brings tons of custom pieces, from the front fender to the completely insane fuel tank that now houses the motorcycle’s gauges. All the body panels of the thing are painted green.
Thunderbike is not in the habit of handing out details on how much one of its builds costs but there are ways of getting some idea. The Red Devil, for instance, has parts on it we can estimate to worth a combined (at least) $2,400. The changes on the Green Poison, being something like a differently-colored twin, are worth about the same.
