Based up in North Lincolnshire, Lettings Agent & Domestic Energy Assessor, I first stumbled across a picture of a Night Rod back in 2007/8, it was love at first sight, like nothing I’d seen before ….. I knew I had to have one! It became a screen saver on my work PC to keep my eye on the goal.

At the time I had an old ZZr600, traded up to a Aprilia SL1000 Falco then adding a triumph speedmaster to the stable. After sorting these two out, I sold them both for a profit to fund an opportunity that came my way.

Built in 2007 but registered in 2009 was available from a guy in Beverly who was looking to fund a new kitchen, his loss was certainly my gain!

The bike started life up in Scotland being sold to its first owner Mark, by West Coast Harley in Glasgow.

It is fitted with stage 2 tuner and race filter. It was mapped by west coast harley, so the pipes filter etc are tuned optimum. It had an 8 ball custom paint job.

It came with mid-controls which became a little bit uncomfortable so I purchased some forward controls from a guy in the states and fitted these to its current configuration which has dual controls …… the best of both worlds! (Once I sort the brake pedal out!)

To be honest I’ve not done a great deal, replaced the headlight with a Halo LED unit (forced into after Veghel) currently going through the process of side mounting the number plate, led running indicators, going topless (thanks to Jeff!) clean up the back end.

I’ve also got a full set of replacement tins to customise for an alternative style depending on the mood!!

Other things on the wish list are:
Oberon clutch, new air box cover to include dials would love a full body kit when funds allow, heated grips, a lot of blacking out and a new exhaust….. it might take a while but I’ll get there…..eventually!!!!
