Harley-Davidson Sportster: Merging The Modern With The Timeless

    This week we’re ditching two wheels from our usual four to take a ride with Efraon Triana around the the foothills and coastal routes that wrap around the central hub of Madrid on his bespoke Harley-Davidson Sportster. By blending the mechanicals of a modern bike with a hand-crafted recreation of the original 1957 design as the wrapper, he’s created a machine that embodies the best of both worlds; the quality rises to OEM standards, but the machine stands alone as a triumph of personal creativity.

      I used to work at a Toll Booth where we would get groups of about 25 to 50 Harleys, bike gangs mostly, come through at a time, we, the toll attendants, would lose our hearing for about the next 12 hours after they came through, some days we would have 4 or 5 groups come through, because of that I have a constantly ringing in my head now. At least the riders could wear ear protection, we couldn't.

    To begin with, absolutely stunning scenery. Petrolicious is miles ahead of other automotive channels in cinematography.
    My motorcycle passions have always followed those of my cars, i.e. mostly British and German. Just like cars I've had a plethora of different vintage bikes over the years (now a '63 Norton Atlas, '70 BMW R75.) As much as I love motorcycles I've never been able to get into Harley's. They've always felt slow and heavy where I prefer something quicker and more nimble. But I do have to say I really like this particular Harley. I'm not sure performance wise it offers anything special but aesthetically it is quite cool. And I think a lot of my attraction to this bike may just come from it's owner. I love any car or bike story (or car, bike itself) that the owner/builder is passionate about, that passion is often infectious. I've never been a Harley guy and most likely won't ever be, but this guy has at least made me change my mind about this particular bike. This is one Harley I wouldn't mind parking next to any BSA, Norton, Triumph, etc. Good stuff Petrolicious!

    • @jonathanbachman2339
      @jonathanbachman2339 6 лет назад

      Eric Hakanson An HD has never been about “how fast” or “how nimble”. If you want a track bike understood. Most street riders do not care about a Rossi look alike. I also own many motorcycles. I have not had much luck with European motorcycles reliability wise. Especially the BMW’s, Italian or British makes. Seriously bad assembly and fit and finish. Nothing that cannot be addressed. The Harley’s? The quality, fit and finish, reliability and resale is much better than any non American bike. For American interstate roads a sport bike is painfully uncomfortable on anything over an hours ride. That is why HD outsells all other big bike combined in the U.S.
      My BMW literal falls apart while I ride it. The handling takes some getting use to but fun. I am smitten with the Triumph’s looks but the quality is horrendous. There getting better but still sub standard build quality. The Suzuki M109 is a fantastic cross of sport and cruise. A good riding position and a stout motor. Probably my favorite bike next to my Breakout. This bike is a trend with builders Stateside. Because the HD motor is so versatile and reliable it makes a fantastic restomod. Love this type of build.

    • @erichakanson7010
      @erichakanson7010 6 лет назад

      Jonathan Bachman I'm not going to get into a semantic argument over bikes. People love what they love and for as much as you live your HD there's a thousand stories of guys who say the opposite about fit and finish. Same can be said about European bikes. However I did just ride from New Mexico to Washington state over ten days on a new BMW R nine T and the bike performed flawlessly. I was able to sit upright, carve canyons with aggression in Utah when I wanted and sat back with the cruise control at 85mph and ate up miles in the California desert for hours on end. I realize this won't change your mind and I don't care to, again people like what they like, but I think it's great you like your Harley. After reading all the financial news the past few months I highly recommend you keep it. It'll be an instant classic when Harley inevitably files for bankruptcy.

    • @jonathanbachman2339
      @jonathanbachman2339 6 лет назад +1

      Eric Hakanson You are entitled to dream of HD demise. I will not try to reason with you. Haters have been hoping for the end of HD for a long time. Ignorance is just not a European trait. But what can one do but smile and move on. And as far as your bikes keep wrenching. You may one day ride then with “ no issues”. Best of luck. But if you are bored check out consumer reports. A non profit organization that DOES NOT care what the badge is on the bike. Peer pressure, image or heritage does not sway facts.
      You will find that your “ European “ bikes are inferior the HD or the American made Japanese bike. It is Gentlemen such as yourself that perpetuate the hate and ignorance of brands. Nice speaking to you. Be safe.

    And like efraon says here, the 2016 and up bikes are modern, fuel injected, have great handling and are fun, i have a blast daily riding mine. Nice efraon was able to follow his passion and dreams. Only thing i would add for others watching, is wear gloves! Everytime.

    Congratulations for the amazing work all together. Keep adding some motorcycle content, there's so much beautiful and meaningful projects out there. I have one, and I'm sure, it's worth to share. Stories connect people soul's.
