]]>La entrada Harley-Davidson NightRod ‘Phoenix’ by Rod Squad aparece primero en DARK KUSTOM.
]]>This build takes the muscular Night Rod Special and transforms it into an aggressive, low-slung custom motorcycle with a radical stance, premium components, and meticulous attention to detail. The name “Phoenix” reflects the concept behind the project: a machine reborn from the ashes, more powerful and more dramatic than before, combining performance tuning with artistic design and flawless engineering.

This custom Harley-Davidson Night Rod stands out immediately thanks to its chassis and wheel conversions. The motorcycle is converted to 2014 Night Rod Special wheels, with a rear wheel widened to 9.5 x 18 inches and wrapped in a massive 280 Metzeler tire, giving the bike its unmistakable drag-bike posture.

A Müller internal throttle system is used, and the grips from Speed Demon are modified to match the overall style. The motorcycle features a completely rebuilt wiring harness, with the engine control unit moved to the front, and all main functions are controlled through four discreet buttons. A hidden starter button and a speedometer converted to red illumination enhance the sleek custom appearance.

The engine and performance upgrades complement the visual changes. The engine is painted matte black to contrast the matte red frame and body components. An Akrapovič exhaust system is installed with a specially manufactured CNC bracket designed specifically for mounting the Akrapovič silencer on this bike.

Power Vision mapping is used to optimize the engine’s performance characteristics. Braking is upgraded with complete steel braided brake lines and Galfer Wave brake discs at the front and rear combined with Galfer sintered pads, delivering enhanced stopping power to match the motorcycle’s aggressive performance potential.

The exhaust system has been replaced by a black 2-in-1 setup, which perfectly matches the dark theme of the build.

]]>La entrada Harley Davidson V Rod ‘One of the last …’ by Rick’s Motorcycles aparece primero en DARK KUSTOM.
]]>Seventeen years after its debut, the power cruiser had firmly secured its position within Harley-Davidson’s model lineup, eventually earning the appreciation of nearly all brand enthusiasts.

However, tightening emissions regulations and declining demand outside of Germany ultimately brought this era to an end in 2017. Though the V-Rod did not even reach adulthood by conventional standards, its lifespan remains comparatively short within the company’s long history.
Yet this is not intended to be an obituary. Instead, it highlights what Rick’s Motorcycles achieved with the V-Rod platform—and the custom parts that continue to be ordered for the many VRSC machines still cruising roads around the world.

To ride a motorcycle, it must first have wheels—and in wheel design and manufacturing, Rick’s Motorcycles is an undisputed expert. For this build, the team selected “Super Steve” design spoke wheels, featuring black powder-coated rims paired with polished spokes. Rick’s signature brake discs were created to match the wheel design perfectly.

The rear wheel is mounted within a custom-machined swingarm, a special Rick’s Motorcycles component developed and produced in small series. This bike is also equipped with Rick’s drive-side brake system, which relocates the brake disc behind the pulley on the left side of the rear wheel, giving the right side an unobstructed view of the custom wheel.

Many of the chassis components—including the front fender, airbox cover, and rear fender—are Rick’s-made parts designed specifically for the V-Rod line.
The front fender is kept short and mounted in the stock position.
Where most motorcycles house a fuel tank, the V-Rod features a mock tank, functioning as the airbox. The actual fuel tank is located under the seat.

Rick’s airbox cover, crafted from reinforced plastic, is a precision-fit replacement. The version shown here, called “Street Fighter,” includes additional side air intakes covered with fine mesh. Special integrated cut-outs position the gauges neatly at the center of the cover.

At the rear, the bike features one of Rick’s complete rear fender kits, supplied with a custom-made seat base plate constructed from high-quality reinforced plastic. These kits remain available today and can be ordered for either 240 mm or 280 mm rear tires.

Rick’s Motorcycles continues to see strong demand for its handcrafted VRSC components. And although the V-Rod era has ended—bringing with it a hint of nostalgia—the hope remains that Harley-Davidson will one day introduce a new power cruiser platform, one worthy of receiving equally stunning custom treatment from Rick’s.
