Harley-Davidson Other description

2012 Harley-Davidson Seventy-Two XL1200V, uthentic '70s chopper attitude meets modern power and premium H-D styling in this bare-bones, lowrider-inspired radical custom The Harley-Davidson Seventy-Two motorcycle is a metal flake dream machine, a Sportster motorcycle on a trip back to the days when the cool kids rode Sting-Ray bikes and the big boys parked choppers in a row on the curb. Those motorcycles were long and lean candy-apple colour and gleaming chrome shimmering in hazy summer sunlight. From its Hard Candy Big Red Flake paint and ape bars to its narrow whitewall tires, the Seventy-Two model is a respectful nod to that era, and to the influence of the custom culture that still percolates today along Whittier Boulevard, the legendary cruising street in East Los Angeles, also known as Route 72. A new generation of custom builder is tapping into that era and making a fresh statement, not just in California but in garages across the country, even around the world.
