The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy “27” by Henne Motorcycles is an outstanding custom build that shows how far the modern Softail platform can be transformed with premium aftermarket parts and expert craftsmanship. This motorcycle no longer feels like a stock Harley-Davidson; it has been refined into a comfortable, smooth, and visually striking custom cruiser designed for both performance and style.
One of the biggest improvements is the riding experience. Thanks to upgrades from Rick’s Motorcycles, shifting is now smooth and precise, eliminating the typical harsh “cranks” found in many stock transmissions. The combination of Arnott Air Ride suspension and Progressive front cartridges delivers a remarkably comfortable and controlled ride, even with the massive 27-inch wheels, making this Fat Boy surprisingly smooth and stable on the road.
The Trask Performance exhaust system adds a deep, aggressive sound that perfectly matches the bike’s bold personality. This exhaust not only enhances the audio experience but also complements the overall high-end custom aesthetic of the build.
A true highlight of this Fat Boy is the Baja LP6 headlight integration, designed and executed by Henne Motorcycles. The LP6 delivers powerful illumination and a modern custom look that sets this bike apart from traditional Harley builds. This conversion is also available to order, making it one of the most desirable upgrades for Softail owners looking for a premium lighting solution.
Ergonomics and control are enhanced by the 7-inch rise handlebar from Killer Customs, which provides excellent steering feel and a comfortable riding position. Small but impactful styling details from Arlen Ness contribute to the premium finish, while the chin spoiler and rear frame spoiler from Killer Customs give the motorcycle a muscular, aggressive stance that perfectly matches its oversized wheels.
The visual centerpiece of this build is the Daytona27 Razor wheel set, which gives the Fat Boy a futuristic and ultra-custom appearance. Combined with the advanced suspension setup, these wheels maintain rideability while delivering an unmistakable show-bike presence.
Overall, the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy “27” by Henne Motorcycles represents a high-end custom Softail build that blends comfort, performance, and bold design. It proves that a modern Fat Boy can be transformed into a luxury custom cruiser with exceptional ride quality and striking visual impact, making it one of the most impressive custom Harley-Davidson builds in the 27-inch wheel category.
