Harley-dreams become reality at German custombike and -parts specialist „Thunderbike“ for more than 3 decades – and this project is the sixth in a long history between Custom Chrome Europe and the Hamminkeln-based customparts manufacturer that has become one of the high-profile Harley-dealers of Europe. Always state-of-the-art in finish,technology and style, the „Bolt On and Ride“ Softail for the 2016/17 season is based on an unexpected choice from the Harley-Davidson model line: Would you have expected that this elegant and slim looking ride is based on HD‘s classic „Muscle Bike“, the FLSTF „Fat Boy“? With a lot of new components, challenged by the necessity to deliver a homologatable Custombike that would have the „big wheel“ style while retaining full function of the stock Advanced Breaking System (ABS), Thunderbike delivered a great ride! One that became a „movie star“ and played a leadingrole in CCE‘s 2016 „Ride Unrivalled“ music video.
