Big Time | 2011 Harley-Davidson Street Glide

While the frame and body work were being taken care of, the engine was getting treated to a 103 kit with ported heads and a modified throttle body. After getting coated in black powdercoat the engine was reassembled, and mounted between the frame rails. To help add a significant amount of grunt to the glide, a Pro Charger Supercharger was installed. The engine build was capped off with one of John’s signature extreme exhaust systems. He calls this one the Up Yours. It’s a 2-into-1 system with dual pipes sweeping along the right side of the bike then merging together in almost a 90-degree bend in front of the saddlebag to spit exhaust fumes at anyone who dares to pull too close.

Another one of John’s signature identifiers is his two-sided paintjob designs. Often one side will be one color and the other side will be another, or one side will have graphics. This bike features a half-and-half paint scheme with one side completely drenched in solid gloss black paint (except for the primary inspection cover) and the other side a mix of black with purple air-brushed skulls, $100 bills, spiders, and demonic faces—even the rocker boxes and cam cover got the airbrush treatment.

After six months of work, the bike was finished up with a host of SI accessories like the handlebars, floorboards, footpegs, saddlebag latches, gas cap, and license mount. In the end what was once a tame and stock Street Glide became a completely custom menacing monster. What else would you expect from a company called Sinister Industries? HB
