Bassani Pipes – Hot New Products
Bladed Beauty
The Blade custom wheel from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories is now available in a 17-inch front and rear designed specifically for the ’07 FLSTF Fat Boy. This wheel features 10 slim spokes that flow from the center hub and spiral rearward to blend with the outer rim. Forged for strength from 6061 aircraft aluminum, the mirror-polished surface is chrome-plated for a brilliant shine.

Roar
Bassani Pipes has just released its record-setting Pro Street exhaust system for ’07 Harley Dyna models. Developed specifically for use on machines fitted with the latest closed-loop fuel-injection system, these new pipes have accommodations for the factory oxygen sensor, which is a requirement when running the OEM injection. Aggressive styling and superior exhaust-flow characteristics put the latest models from Bassani in a class all their own. Offered in slash- and straight-cut styles for mid- and forward-control models, the pipes are fabricated from 16-gauge steel and feature stepped head pipes, rugged show-quality hard-chrome finish, and Bassani’s unique tunable/replaceable flow-through baffle system.

Knuckled Up
Bare Knuckle has just released its V-Hell frame, a new take on the timeless VL frames from the old days. The V-Hell features dual 1-1/8-inch DOM tubes as the downtube and cradle, splitting past the transmission to form a rear section to fit either stock or 180/200mm tires. Also featured are BKC’s new NOS axle plates, allowing you to run either an exposed axle area or one covered with the supplied aluminum covers. Options left up to the customer include gooseneck or straight neck, tire size (stock or 180/200mm), four or five-speed, and stretch and rake (up to 6 inches over and 40 degrees, respectively).

Better Than Sharpies
Custom knifemaker Gary Blanchard and United Cutlery are introducing a blade under the Harley-Davidson brand. The new Ghost Lock floating internal bearing-lock system features a single ball bearing recessed into a cavity in the center of the blade. The ball bearing controls the locking and unlocking system of the knife. The black Zytel handle features a Harley-Davidson stamped rubber insert, offering a positive no-slip grip. The 3-inch polished HC stainless-steel blade and stainless-steel liners speak to the quality of the Ghost Lock. The knife is available with a premium-quality leather pocket sheath, designed to clip to a belt loop. This special design allows the knife to be carried, protected by the sheath, in the pocket.
