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.

This machine rolls on Thunderbike Grand Prix wheels — a 9.0×21 rear and 4.0×23 front, wrapped in Metzeler Cruisetec 260/35VR21 and ME888F 130/60B23 tires for an aggressive stance and unmatched grip. 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.

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.

BT Choppers strikes again with a stunning custom build, this time transforming a Harley-Davidson Street Bob into a true masterpiece.

Baptized with the name “Bled”, this bike perfectly combines raw power with refined design.

The Street Bob’s Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine remains at the heart of the project, but almost everything else has been upgraded for a more aggressive stance.

A massive rear wheel, custom exhaust system, lowered stance, and handcrafted details make this build stand out from the crowd.

The sleek black paintwork with subtle red accents highlights the bike’s muscular silhouette, while the wide tires and blacked-out components emphasize its bold character.

This is not just another custom Harley — “Bled” represents the vision and craftsmanship of BT Choppers, pushing the boundaries of what a Street Bob can become.

Rick’s Motorcycles once again showcases its expertise in the art of customization with this aggressive and refined take on the iconic Harley-Davidson Fat Boy.

This build is all about muscle, presence, and premium components, turning a classic cruiser into a head-turning custom machine.

At first glance, the massive 300 rear tire sets the tone, perfectly integrated with Rick’s Mono Swing Arm and a custom rear fender, engineered to match the wide tire’s brutal stance. Rolling on Rick’s signature forged Mono Block wheels, this Fat Boy commands attention from every angle. The front end features a 23″ wheel, complemented by Rick’s custom front fender, giving the bike a perfectly balanced and aggressive silhouette.

Performance and handling are matched with premium details. Rick’s wave brake discs ensure powerful stopping performance while enhancing the overall aesthetic. The axle cover kit adds a clean, refined finish to the wheels and suspension components.

One of the most striking visual upgrades is Rick’s stretched gas tank, seamlessly integrated into the Fat Boy’s frame for a longer, lower look. Combined with the Custom Chrome Europe handlebar, the rider’s position is both commanding and comfortable.

Lighting and electronics are taken to the next level with ultra-compact yet powerful Kellermann ATTO turn signals, blending minimalism and visibility with German precision.

This Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is more than just a custom bike – it’s a testament to Rick’s Motorcycles’ commitment to craftsmanship, style, and performance. Every component is carefully chosen and flawlessly executed, making this build a true standout in the world of custom Harley-Davidsons.

A bike reimagined from the ground up, reengineered with precision, and shaped with bold character in every curve.

The “Bronx Brute” stuns with its deep black and bronze chrome effect finish, paired with one-off custom wheels, a fully redesigned front fork, and hand-shaped bodywork. It’s a street-ready cruiser that carries the soul of a showbike — aggressive, legal in Switzerland, and unapologetically one of a kind.

Nine Hills, the renowned custom motorcycle workshop, has once again proven its mastery in transforming Harley-Davidson machines into bold, unique works of art.

Their latest creation, a modified Harley-Davidson M8 Fat Boy, carries a name that speaks volumes: Prisoner.

This aggressive build exudes raw power and attitude. Every element of the bike has been carefully reimagined to reflect a dark, muscular aesthetic. From the low-slung stance to the blackout finishes, Prisoner commands attention wherever it goes.

The iconic Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine remains at the heart of the machine, but its presence is amplified by custom detailing and performance enhancements that take it to the next level.

Nine Hills has applied their signature style with precision — the wide rear tire, the minimalist bodywork, the handcrafted exhaust, and the custom seat all contribute to the bike’s outlaw personality. It’s not just a motorcycle; it’s a statement of rebellion and freedom.

Baptized as Prisoner, this Fat Boy breaks all chains of convention. It’s a bike for those who ride against the current — built not to follow, but to lead.
