HD Sportster Lincoln
Our customer saw the “Venice Vibes HD 883” in the streets of LA and contacted us to commission us for a job. We aimed for the same donor machine (a 883 Sportster from 2003 this time) because they are so easy to find in the US.
We just wanted something totally different and went for a low rider x street tracker look.
From the regular feedbacks we get from the owner, this is a perfect match!

- engine fully rebuilt
- stainless steel 2-i-1 exhaust pipes connected to a stainless steel megaton muffler
- K&N air filter connected to the rejetted Keihin CV 40 carburetor.
The belt drive was switched to a secondary chain drive, which gives a more “old schoo”l look to the motorcycle.
- we used a vintage Ford truck additional light as a headlight
- and used our usual Triumph T120 handlebar
- an after market solo seat was installed in replacement of the veray thick original “2 persons” seat
- after market front brake master cylinder and clutch lever were used to replace the orginial “bulky” levers
We fully simplified the electric wiring and used our Blitz Motorcycles stainless steel tiny switches for blinkers / horn & headlight / starter.
- the front wheel is a 19 inches rimmed wheels with a Deluxe Firestone Champion tire
- the rear wheel is a 18 inches rimmed wheel with a Coker Diamond tire
The whole bike has been lowered by 2 inches to give it a “low rider” look.
- we used a steel made “Tsunami” fender from Lowbrow Custom
- and we matched this piece to the 3 gallons peanut tank by using a mat grey slate color for the paint job
