The Harley-Davidson Night Rod ‘Bad Habitz’ is a stunning custom motorcycle built by Bozzies in the Netherlands and proudly owned by FM Car Treatments.

This unique build draws inspiration from Porsche design, combining raw American power with the refined lines and precision of European engineering. The result is a machine that looks as fast as it rides — bold, muscular, and beautifully balanced.

Maarten de Bruin Fotografie

One of the most striking features of “Bad Habitz” is its massive wide rear wheel, giving the bike a powerful and aggressive stance. The exclusive hand-crafted paint, with a carbon-style finish, highlights the custom bodywork and adds a high-performance aesthetic that perfectly matches its attitude. Every line, curve, and texture reflects meticulous attention to detail.

Maarten de Bruin Fotografie

The 2-in-2 black exhaust system not only enhances performance but also delivers a deep, brutal sound that commands attention wherever it goes. Complementing the setup is a custom-made seat, designed for comfort and control, while maintaining the clean, low-slung silhouette that defines this V-Rod’s character.

Maarten de Bruin Fotografie

Every aspect of this motorcycle — from its engineering to its visual impact — represents the artistry and technical skill that define Bozzies’ work. “Bad Habitz” isn’t just a custom Harley; it’s a statement of individuality, precision, and passion for perfection.

Thunderbike never misses when it comes to blending performance and design, and the Softail Breakout 117 GP-Suzuka is a perfect example of that precision.

Inspired by the spirit of the racetrack, this build pushes the limits of custom craftsmanship while maintaining the raw soul of Harley-Davidson.

The Single-Side Swingarm Kit (21″ Alu) exposes that massive rear wheel, emphasizing the performance-driven design.

Braking is handled by a Thunderbike Streetmaster disc paired with a Brembo Radial Monoblock M4 caliper set for precise stopping power. The Triple Tree Kit Grand Prix 2.0 Performance and Stummellenker Set “GP 2.0” give the front end its race-ready attitude.

A Custom Aluminum Fuel Tank (GP-Style) and Airbox Cover Oval Grand Prix add clean, aerodynamic lines, while details like Phantom E Grips, Forward Controls Phantom Contrast Cut, and Stripe LED Turn Signals bring modern performance to the forefront.

Finishing touches such as Motogadget mo.view Race mirrors, Derby & Timer Covers (Drilled), and Hydraulic Clutch Conversion Kit make this Thunderbike masterpiece not only stunning but perfectly tuned for the road.

The Harley-Davidson V-Rod GEO 280Red‘ by Bad Boy Customs is a bold and aggressive interpretation of the iconic power cruiser.

This custom build blends high-performance components, precision craftsmanship, and a striking color scheme that makes it stand out anywhere it goes. Finished in a sleek matte gray with contrasting red wheels, the GEO 280Red radiates pure muscle and style.

To achieve its wide and powerful stance, Bad Boy Customs equipped the bike with a 10 x 18 rear wheel wrapped in a 280 tire, and a 4.25 x 19-inch front wheel (BBC 071). The look is completed with front and rear rim stripes and a lowered front fork, giving the V-Rod an even more aggressive posture. Wave brake discs (BBC 073 & BBC 074) enhance both performance and aesthetics, while the engine covers, swingarm, and other details are painted in the same body color for a seamless finish.

The custom bodywork includes a rear fender (BBC 090), airbox cover (BBC 024), and a short front fender (BBC 036), all crafted with precision. Other bespoke parts such as closed fork sleeves (BBC 129), rear and front axle covers (BBC 075 & BBC 107), and swingarm covers (BBC 103) ensure every inch of the motorcycle looks refined and cohesive.

Performance and comfort were also top priorities. The 2-in-2 black ceramic-coated exhaust system (BBC 001) not only adds a deep, throaty sound but also a unique visual touch. The custom seat, made from smooth and rough leather with a diamond pattern, provides both elegance and grip.

Completing the setup are a side-mounted license plate holder (BBC 059), Airride suspension (BBC 070), and mini front indicators (BBC 054) with indicator brackets (BBC 057) that keep the design clean and minimalistic.

The front end features a 3D headlight bracket (BBC 138) paired with a main headlight with Angel Eyes (BBC 123) for a futuristic touch. A Dragbar Fatbar handlebar (1 1/4”, BBC 126) and pointed bar ends (BBC 068) complete the cockpit, combining comfort, control, and style.

Every detail on the GEO 280Red speaks of precision and passion. From the stance to the finishing, this V-Rod captures the essence of modern custom culture — where engineering meets artistry.

Backstage Workshop from Bulgaria has taken the legendary Harley-Davidson Night Rod Special and turned it into a true custom masterpiece.

We installed a FOX Arnott adjustable air suspension system, providing both superior comfort and the perfect stance at any speed.

For the controls, we opted for a low, straight handlebar fitted with Avon grips, NLC brake and clutch levers, and under-mounted mirrors with integrated LED front indicators. A powerful LED headlight completes the aggressive front look.

The Akrapovič Open Line exhaust system delivers not only optimal performance but also a deep, resonant sound and distinctive aesthetics. Combined with the K&N open air filter, this setup enhances both breathing and attitude—producing an unmistakable roar.

The fully custom body kit, including a steel rear fender base and a handmade seat base, was crafted and refined by GB Design to match the bike’s bold silhouette and performance-driven identity.

A massive 260 rear tire ensures a muscular presence on the road, while the green color scheme and precision-executed graphics—a mix of matte and gloss clear coats—by Picasso Airbrush & Custom Paint give this build a unique personality and visual punch.

Special thanks to GB Design for the exceptional seat craftsmanship, and to Picasso Moto Design Airbrush & Custom Paint for their outstanding paintwork and detailing.

The inspiration behind it wasn’t tobacco — it was Wayne Rainey, the three-time 500cc World Champion of the early 1990s.

Rainey never rode a V-Rod, of course. His machine was the legendary Yamaha YZR 500, painted in the iconic red-and-white Marlboro racing colors that defined an era.

This tribute bike was built by Andi Bürger from Speyer, a man who used to focus mainly on customizing Kawasakis. Under his label “Bürger Custom”, he eventually turned to American Big Twins — and this 2012 V-Rod Muscle became his canvas.

Bürger bought the bike in December 2022 and immediately set out to transform it over the winter. The result is a bold and beautifully balanced mix of muscle and motorsport heritage.

At the rear sits a massive 260 mm tire, just barely fitting within the original swingarm. The bike has been lowered, equipped with a dual exhaust system from Kess-Tech featuring an electronic sound management module hidden beneath the tank cover.

A NLC tank cover, Bad Boy Custom tail section, and Night Rod headlight fairing complete the bodywork — all finished in the unmistakable Marlboro racing livery that brings Rainey’s glory days back to life.

Although Bürger is a smoker, this project isn’t about cigarettes. It’s about honoring a racing legend whose determination and style inspired a generation. Wayne Rainey’s career ended after a crash in 1993 that left him paralyzed — a powerful reminder that sometimes, racing itself is more dangerous than smoking.

DD Designs has once again pushed the limits of creativity and craftsmanship with this stunning Harley-Davidson V-Rod, baptized “Kydex.”

Owned by Artur O’Neill, this custom machine embodies the perfect blend of muscle, precision, and bold design.

From the first glance, the red carbon fiber body parts make a powerful statement, giving Kydex an aggressive yet refined look. Every detail has been carefully selected, resulting in a bike that stands out both in performance and aesthetics.

The wide stance comes from a 330 rear wheel kit paired with a 180mm front wheel kit, creating a dramatic silhouette that commands attention.

To complement the stance, a remote control air suspension system allows the rider to adjust height on demand, while a center stand provides stability and clean presentation when parked.

Performance and durability are enhanced through a stainless steel exhaust, ceramic coated in black for a sleek and stealthy finish.

The suede seat features a diamond stitch pattern with red stitching, tying perfectly with the carbon fiber accents. Every component, including the custom brake rotors and the Blackout package, contributes to the bike’s cohesive and powerful aesthetic.

Kydex is not just a motorcycle — it’s a statement of engineering precision and design artistry. This V-Rod showcases DD Designs’ relentless pursuit of perfection and the passion that drives the custom motorcycle scene in the United States.

We would like to introduce you to a very special duo: the Porsche 911 GT3 RS with the Weissach Package, and the custom Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout built to match it: the Thunderbike GP-Weissach.

Together with our customer Stefan, we created a project that bridges the gap between high-performance automotive engineering and handcrafted custom motorcycle design. This is not our first collaboration with him. Nearly ten years ago, Stefan inspired one of our most iconic builds, the Lamborghini Aventador–themed Thunderbike OUTERLIMIT. Now, the story continues with a new interpretation of power, precision and style.

The inspiration for the GP-Weissach project comes directly from Stefan’s Porsche 911 GT3 RS (992.1), a machine that represents the ultimate track-focused driving experience. Its 4.0-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers 525 hp, accelerating the 1450 kg car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds. The Weissach Package further enhances performance by reducing weight by around 15 kilograms through targeted lightweight construction.

Visible high-gloss carbon components such as the front hood, roof, exterior mirrors and wing elements emphasize the motorsport character. Inside, the combination of Race-Tex upholstery, red contrast stitching, magnesium shift paddles and carbon fiber surfaces reflects a pure racing atmosphere. Even the magnesium wheels finished in Pyrored inspired the key color accents of our motorcycle.

For the bike, we selected the Harley-Davidson Breakout FXBRS with Milwaukee-Eight engine as the foundation. This model offers the ideal frame geometry to integrate our GP rear conversion and the substantial 9×21-inch rear wheel. The cockpit retains the original digital speedometer but is now seamlessly integrated into a custom-milled triple clamp. The goal was not to copy the Porsche, but to interpret its attitude. Colors, proportions, finishes and materials were chosen to translate the GT3 RS design language into a new aesthetic expression on two wheels.

The GP-Weissach incorporates the latest developments from our high-end GP component line. It features aerodynamically optimized triple clamps, redesigned handlebar mounts with Rebuffini RR90 controls, and a new GP front mask, all contributing to a dynamic and athletic stance. The open primary drive adds mechanical transparency and highlights the powertrain.

The single-sided swingarm, milled from a solid block of aluminum, allows an unobstructed view of the wheel. An air suspension system at the front and a hydraulically adjustable rear setup lower the bike when parked, giving it a dramatic, grounded presence.

A defining aspect of the design is the use of Pyrored accents, directly referencing the Porsche’s wheel color. The wheels of the GP-Weissach are milled from a single piece, then selectively machined after anodizing to create depth, sharp edges and visual motion. Their five-spoke Y-design appears lightweight and technical, perfectly matching the sporty and high-end character of the build. The exposed 21-inch rear wheel, combined with the perimeter brake system, serves as both a functional and visual centerpiece that underscores the precision and craftsmanship of the motorcycle.

At the end of the project, Stefan summed up his feelings in one sentence: “My goal was 100%. You delivered 110%.” For us, that is the greatest recognition. The GP-Weissach is more than a custom motorcycle. It is the translation of supercar performance philosophy into hand-built motorcycle culture. A Porsche created for the racetrack, and a Harley reinvented to share its spirit. Two machines, one shared heartbeat of motorsport passion.

The Harley-Davidson V-Rod Airride “White Pearl 280” by Bad Boy Customs is a breathtaking example of custom craftsmanship, merging elegance and aggression in perfect harmony.

Its distinctive white-and-black color scheme emphasizes the muscular lines of the V-Rod, while every element has been meticulously designed to highlight both form and function.

This motorcycle stands as a perfect balance between raw power and refined detail — a true showpiece of modern custom engineering.

The build features a widened 10×18 rear wheel fitted with a massive 280 Avon tire (BBC 012), giving the bike a bold and powerful rear stance. Complementing that setup is a rear fender (BBC 090) and an airbox cover with air inlets (BBC 024) that seamlessly integrate with the bike’s aerodynamic flow. The short front fender (BBC 036) adds a sporty edge, while axle, swingarm, and engine screw covers contribute to the bike’s clean, detailed finish.

For comfort and style, the Roche saddle crafted from smooth leather features elegant diamond-patterned black stitching, perfectly blending luxury with performance. A side-mounted license plate holder (BBC 060) and infinitely adjustable Airride suspension (BBC 070) enhance both functionality and visual impact, allowing the rider to fine-tune the stance and ride height at any moment.

The front end showcases BBC 054 blinkers mounted on BBC 057 indicator brackets, along with a stainless steel dragbar (BBC 051) fitted with bar end tips (BBC 068) for a clean, minimal look.

Completing the build is the 2-in-2 exhaust system (BBC 001) with TÜV approval, delivering a deep, throaty sound that perfectly matches the bike’s muscular presence. The BBC 082 lamp holder, BBC 081 headlight, and BBC 370 mirrors add the final touches of precision and design balance.

The White Pearl 280 is far more than a motorcycle — it’s a statement of individuality and passion, embodying the spirit of Bad Boy Customs and their dedication to excellence. Each component has been chosen not only for performance but also to create a cohesive and powerful aesthetic.

From the heart of Sweden comes this jaw-dropping custom Harley-Davidson Night Rod, built by the talented team at OPM Performance.

This build takes the raw power and aggressive attitude of the original Night Rod and transforms it into something truly extraordinary. The bike stands out immediately with its massive rear tire, delivering not only an intimidating look but also a strong visual balance with the bold front end. Every angle reveals meticulous craftsmanship and a perfect blend of muscle and elegance.

The custom satin red paintwork enhances the flowing lines of the frame, tank, and airbox cover, creating a sleek and modern look that contrasts beautifully with the black engine, exhaust, and details. The dual blacked-out exhaust pipes follow the curves of the bike perfectly, reinforcing its dark and brutal street presence.

OPM Performance has paid attention to every little detail — from the minimalist rear fender and clean side profile to the aggressive handlebar setup that keeps the stance low and powerful. The bike embodies the essence of what a modern muscle cruiser should be: fast, bold, and unapologetically custom.

This Night Rod is not just a motorcycle; it’s a statement. A perfect example of Scandinavian precision meeting American power.
