SPORTSTER BOBBER BLACK CREAM
On this occasion, we present the Sportster Bobber Black Cream, a Harley Davidson customised with the unmistakable style of Lord Drake Kustoms. This project, developed in the workshop in Malaga, Spain, represents more than 10 years of experience transforming motorbikes into true works of art.
Based on a Sportster 883 R
Fran Manen, founder of Lord Drake Kustoms, was given a fuel injected 2007 Harley Davidson Sportster 883 R along with a general customisation idea that evolved as the work progressed. From the start, there was a clear goal: to fit a 200mm rear wheel combined with thick spoke rims, ideal for Harley motorbikes.
Modifications
The Sportster Bobber Black Cream features a classic bobber design that incorporates unique details. A ‘hangman’ style handlebar was installed which, along with a Sportster Forty Eight tank and 21-inch front wheel, gives this Harley an unmistakable vintage feel.
Although the two-seater was retained, the rear wing was shortened to accentuate the bobber character, with the addition of 10.5-inch Burly shocks and a handmade side-arm number plate holder from the Lord Drake Kustoms team.
Other details include a relocated side-mounted odometer, LED turn signals under the button panels, Biltwell grips, spoiler, and a Sportster-specific air filter. Custom exhausts, wrapped in anti-heat tape, complete the functional and attractive design.
Handlebars hangman
Every element of the Sportster Bobber Black Cream was selected and fine-tuned. Major modifications include:
- Cut-out front mudguard, which reinforces the minimalist character.
- Installation of a 200 mm rear wheel and thick-spoke rims.
- A handcrafted number plate holder, designed specifically for Harley Davidson.
- 10.5’ Burly shocks for a lower profile.
- Handlebars with a retro and daring touch.
These improvements not only transform the appearance, but also optimise the driving experience.

BLACK AND CREAM
The finish of the Sportster Bobber Black Cream is a true work of art. The paintwork combines a gloss black with a cream tone that is separated by delicate gold pinstripes.
The tank features classic Harley Davidson lettering and graphics, creating a perfect balance between tradition and modernity. This colour scheme not only stands out for its elegance, but also reinforces the unique identity of this custom bike.
A Unique Bobber Style Transformation
If you’re looking for a Harley Davidson that combines classic bobber styling with unique details, the Sportster Bobber Black Cream is the perfect example of the art of customisation.
