- 1998 Harley Sportster Scrambler Build
Our first Harley Sportster Scrambler made some pretty big waves in the custom world. This build presented an opportunity to go above and beyond from the last iteration of the Harley Sportster Scrambler with a more aggressive, in your face design backed by real world experience from riding my own Sportster. This is something I'm really happy to see evolve, and it's come in leaps and bounds since my first time around.

I thought this was an actual Harley Reveal and I got so excited. Idk why they haven’t jumped on the scrambler craze.
We probably make em look better anyway haha
Man…I love this build!!!
That's an amazing build!!!
What has caught my ears and eye is that these HD Sportsters are had between $2500 and $3500 and to build it out is very In-expensive mostly chasing down parts that someone else has done. This bike is expensive, but gives me ideas as I look at this. I own several adventure bikes already.
Absolute magic.
Could never justify the cost of one of these builds, (not a criticism, just an observation based on an hour of my labour) but this particular one is brilliant.
A lot of the time they leave me a bit meh' but that is because each is built for a particular individual and its what he/ she/ they want.
Fucking magic.
Thanks, it’s nice to hear someone that understands the process of these projects, and the cost involved.
Super badass vtwin supermoto. Send this video hd...
That tail suits it so well. What an awesome build all round
Great to see that you take all the lessons learned on previous bikes and apply it to new builds. Constant growth 👌
Cheers Pat, Hoping we can build another one of these soon!
This thing is incredible man! Just wanted to ask, the bolts that hold in the carb are also breather bolts to release crankcase pressure; are you routing that some other way? Just to make sure you dont have problems down the road.
But honestly your builds are way too clean. Really refreshing to see something so different to what everyone else is doing with these. Have an 03 and absolutely love it. Cheers from Puerto Rico & keep killing it man!
Hey Carlos, Yes the breather hoses are routed up under the tank and run out to near the chain. Appreciate you checking this out!
Great work. I have been dreaming of a bike like this. For me twin round front headlights with grills and extra fuel space under the seat with a Mad Max aesthetic would be perfection. The retro and modern mix with the sharp racy tail is so well executed.
What a badass build. Keep on keeping on!
This looks insane man.
Watching wide of the mark inspired me so much I bought a Suzuki gn ‘93 in crates for a steal and have been building it by myself with a little help from a bike mechanic, another week or two and it’ll
be ready to ride…have loved every step of it, as frustrating as some of it has been..being my first bike haha
So stoked
Cheers!
Hell yeah mate, get after it!
Great looking sporty. Looks really racey and very slick. Hot pipe 👍 Great sounding bike. The bars and mirrors and tank look good riding along. Looks like a fun twisty road 😃
Absolutely sick build mate. Dream job!
It definitely commands a bit of attention
No bark busters! lol
Impressive 😮
Well done
So badass!!! Thats a Sporty Id love to rip on! Great job! 👍👍
She’s a ripper!
@@PurposeBuiltMoto
Dig it!! She looks it. I have both my Streetglide and Dyna LRS built for ripping from suspension, brakes and motor. Love to take that one for a rip through my favorite So Cal twisties! Great job on it!! 👍👍
Such a sick build!
Great looking bike. What handle bar risers did you guys use?
Yeah I’d have that too man stop building cool stuff I want aye I can’t buy em all hehe merry Christmas guys cheers
Thanks Tazy, have a good Chrissy mate!
This is sick mate 🔥
This is fire congrats guys !!
Yew yewww! 👌🏽
Thinking about combining the forward portion of your filter system. Relocate switch and coil. But could a standard filler box be worked into the system?
Remove the filter, remove the standard intake, narrow the outside face of the box sits further in. The local brains trust say it would ruin the air flow into the throttle body (2013 883). I've swapped to a Supertrapp exhaust and now I can't help but notice how much the air box sticks out.
I like your idea but maybe there is a more stylish was to connect to the throttle body.
If you figure out s better idea I'd love to see it. Our airflow was spot on with the bike running good HP numbers and great throttle responce.
molto carina........🤟
Very nice! What did you do to accommodate the geometry of the chain with the taller rear suspension?
Check out our Sportster build series and Blogs on this bike. All the build info is in there.
Great job!!!
What's the wet weight on this, and how much did it cost to do?
Did the forks fit without modification to the headset
Modified headstem mate bit a pretty easy fit
@@PurposeBuiltMoto cheers thanks
Was it just different barrings or dis you have to cut and we'll a new head 🤔
Did the triples just bolt on
No, there was a bit of fitting required. Nothing we couldn't handle though, not too difficult. If you're heading into a USD fork swap, check out this article we wrote to help people out.

Harley Davidson are u paying attention!?
Research counter steering, u like many don't understand it. No disrespect, the #1 reason ppl wreck in curves...
Love it. Killed it again boys.
Peep my Sportster Board Tracker build?

The RUclips music greatly diminishes this extraordinary build. Please turn that shit off.
It’s cool but it’s ugly
You guys make awesome bikes, but your videos are boring. This one is typical, where you have 5 minutes of GoPro footage of the bike traveling on boring roads. You should at minimum have a hard acceleration, from stop, through at least a few of the gears. Also, show some snap accelerations from low to mid cruising speeds.
Thanks for the feedback, I might try work a bit of that in. I just don’t really like thrashing the ass off my clients bikes haha
