Because of its name “69” and the position it represents, this is the bike transformed more sexual than Lord Drake Kustoms has customized in his Harley Davidson workshop in Malaga to date. A Sportster Bobber.
An elegant and striking Harley Sportster Bobber
In addition, this Harley transformed in Malaga (Spain) is very attractive because it is a custom motorcycle that, as it was being built, seemed more daring and sexy. Also something rampant and radical, but elegant.
This Sportster Bobber with very casual style and for all audiences (young and less young, bikers and non-bikers) is a perfect custom motorcycle to ride on any street in the most Californian style. While people look at you in your path. With a powerful sound and great joy of walking.
The “sixty-nine” also has a somewhat radical stance that encourages you to twist the accelerator at the entrance of a highway. It is simply the “69”… sometimes it relaxes you, other times it takes you to maximum excitement!
The secret of this Sportster Bobber “69” is its color scheme
What was clear was that something striking and simple at the same time was sought. That’s why when painting this Harley Davidson, the striking white was combined with the elegant black. In addition, he put a touch of union between both colors in gold (aged) without abusing this color so as not to fall on a vulgar motorcycle.
This motorcycle has been in the second position in the “Sportster” category of the Harley Davidson European Custom Bike Show “Eurofestival” held in 2014 in Saint Tropez (France).
This motorcycle Sportster Bobber-style, with a Harley Davidson Sportster 1200 base, is the first of a series of which several units have already been made in the LDK Harley and custom workshop in Malaga. Fran Manen, the owner of the brand, has also customized two bikes of this series at his Harley workshop in Miami.

Harley-Davidson Softail Springer Classic FLSTSCI of the year 2005. A custom motorcycle “Old School”… really. Built by Lord Drake Kustoms in his custom Harley workshop in Miami (USA).
Well, here is the response of the owner of Lord Drake Kustoms to all those questions: A custom Bobber motorcycle, Old School! A real iron! An authentic Harley, American with character! A Softail Springer Classic… The “Springer SDT Vintage”.
This motorcycle customized in the motorcycle workshop of Lord Drake Kustoms in Miami (USA), has a detail to highlight, was commissioned by a regular customer of Fran Manen: “SDT Designs“. Which collaborated with LDK to result in this powerful Harley Old School. “SDT” are the initials of the name of the owner of the motorcycle transformed on this occasion.
The process of transforming this Softail Springer Classic
I didn’t want to use the typical and cheap Springer Aftermarket forks, so it was clear, you had to start with a very simple base to choose from… a Harley Softail. And for the result, to be more radical and authentic, a Softail Springer Classic.
The first thing was to undress the Harley Softail chassis to the point of removing the oil tank along with all the original engine and transmission covers of the Harley Twin Cam. We had to cut the entire rear of the chassis to start shaping this beauty.
The rear fender, the custom oil tank for Harley, in addition to all the connections, the base of the fuel tank, the base and the entire complete seat, the handlebars and the exhaust pipes, all were manufactured by Lord Drake Kustoms. He was also accompanied by aSportster fuel tank typepeanut which was also modified by LDK.
The rest of the engine and transmission covers of this Springer Softail were treated to move from the original chrome to the black textured powder coat. The finishes were very simple: pure steel with the rust that characterizes it and semi-gloss lacquer to protect it in fenders and fuel tank. It was also applied black powder coat with texture or gloss and red color to the rim of the tires.
The upholstery of the spring seat for this Harley was made with the same skin that uses Ferrari for the interior panels and consoles of its cars.
We must not forget the essence and soul in this world of customization and transformation of motorcycles, where this trend comes from. And without “Harleys” and without “Old School”, today we probably wouldn’t know the term “Custom Bikes” and all that it represents today.

The modification and transformation of this second unit (in red color) of the 10 Sportster scrambler series, has been customized in our Harley Davidson workshop in Malaga (SPAIN). Currently, the first unit (which was green) circulates on the roads of Austria and this unit has ended up in London (United Kingdom).
The main differences between this scrambler bike and its predecessor are: the colors (red instead of green), the graphic of the side covers, the exhaust pipes, the air filter and the front rim that has been put 21 inches in instead of 19.

In addition, it refers to one of the great cars in the history of the competition. Specifically, the Porsche 917 “GULF” that Mcqueenwith the number 20 he was driving in the aforementioned film.

Fran Manen (owner of LDK) is passionate about Steve Mcqueen, the colors “GULF” and the Porsche. So it was clear when it came to creating what has been the first unit of a limited series of Cafe Racer motorcycles inspired by cars and mythical motorcycles in the world of competition.
The choice of the color palette of this Sportster Cafe Racer
Painting and airbrushing motorcyclesCafe Racer like this is sometimes difficult to choose. But this time it was simply because it had to be a GULF motorcycle, in this case, a Harley Davidson Sportster Gulf… neither more nor less.

Fat spokes tires manufactured for this Harley Sportster Cafe Racer, add a spectacular touch to all the work of transformation of this motorcycle, in one of the best Cafe Racer workshops in Spain.
