FAT BOB THE BEAST
In the world of custom bikes, there are converted motorcycles that simply command attention, and then there are those that make you stop and admire them completely. This is the case with the impressive Harley-Davidson Softail Fat Bob “The Beast,” which has been transformed in our Harley-Davidson conversion workshop in Spain.
At LDK, we’ve given it a makeover to transform it into an aggressive, elegant, and uniquely personalized custom Harley. If you’re looking for inspiration or just want to learn more about this custom Harley Fat Bob we built, keep reading this article filled with details, technical specifications, and of course, opinions and reviews about Lord Drake Kustoms and the work we did on this gem on wheels.
Details that make the difference
Like all Lord Drake Kustoms projects, this bike is carefully designed down to the smallest detail, with each component chosen to combine functionality, quality, and style.
HIGH-LEVEL MECHANICS AND PERFORMANCE
This Harley-Davidson, transformed by Fran Manen’s team, is not only impressive to look at but has also been equipped with high-performance components. Among them are the adjustable KessTech exhausts, a true work of German engineering that allows the sound and exhaust flow to be electronically modified to suit the rider’s situation or mood.
Gas tank
It also features a high-performance air filter that improves throttle response and the overall performance of the Milwaukee-Eight engine. The 200-pound rear wheel gives it an even more muscular presence, and the thick-spoked rims not only add to its aesthetic appeal but also its robustness and durability.
Front mask
In addition, all lighting has been updated with turn signals and LEDs, improving visibility, safety, and the modern look of this motorcycle.
The riding position, the sound of the KessTech exhaust, the raw power of the engine, and the refinement of the finish make this bike a two-wheeled experience that’s hard to beat.
Single-seat
Design and customization:
Military identity with an urban essence
The first impression left by this Fat Bob, dubbed “THE BEAST,” is its striking matte military green paint job with red accents, a combination that gives it a rugged, tactical, and completely distinctive character. This aesthetic is complemented by a single-seat seat upholstered in perforated black leather, stitched with red thread in a diamond pattern, which not only highlights the design but also improves rider comfort.
One of the most striking elements is the 2024 Street Glide-style fairing and front fairing, a bold choice that retains the Fat Bob’s original headlight but gives it an aggressive, aerodynamic touring look.
OPINIONS AND REVIEWS
The opinions and reviews Lord Drake Kustoms has received from customers, experts, and motorcycle enthusiasts regarding the work done on this Harley Fat Bob all agree on one point: this is a completely different kind of customization, both in terms of style and model. Not only because of its aesthetics, but also because of the attention to detail and the perfect balance between aggressiveness and elegance.
Many describe it as a “robust motorcycle,” and users also highlight the comfort of the seat, the versatility of the KessTech exhaust sound, and the exclusivity that comes with knowing that each motorcycle transformed by LDK is a unique and unrepeatable piece.
IDEAL FOR HARLEY LOVERS
This customized bike isn’t meant to go unnoticed. It’s perfect for those who value craftsmanship, bold design, and the performance of a high-end motorcycle. Whether for show, long rides, or as a means of personal expression, this Fat Bob “The Beast” makes a statement.
