HD Sportster Popeye
Based on a ’01 883 Harley Davidson Sportster, this machine was transformed for a girl who happens to kind of look like Popeye’s wife: Olive.
That explains the name we chose for that one: Olive rides Popeye!!
It kind of makes sense, don’t you agree ?

- the rear wheel was swaped for an 18 inches rimmed wheel
- the belt was replaced by a drive chan set because it looks cooler
- We kept the original tank…. which we normally never do… But this glitter blue had to say.
- the original airbox was replaced by a more “direct” air intake (and the Keihin CV carb was rejetted accordingly)
The frame was shortened by 5 inches and we installed an “Tsunami” fender made in the US by LowBrow Custom.
The mini LED rear light comes also from LowBrow Custom.
