2003 Harley FXDL Café Racer

2003_FXDL_rear

In a perfect world you would see more Harley Davidson café racers like this jaw dropping FXDL. Built by Selected Custom Motorcycles (SCM) who are based in Yokohama – the Japanese region made famous by quality tires. SCM specialise in building Harley choppers, but also like to dabble in café racers. The bike is named 'Eleanor' and she possesses some of the most impressive custom pipes we have seen in a while – the way they curve behind the rear suspension is a work of art. The beautiful pins striped café seat and tank were also custom built by the guys at Selected. You can view more photos of 'Eleanor' on her gallery

Nice rear sets, and pipes! You wont see this on "Sons of Anarchy ", and that's a good thing! Great bike.

Jak - they dont mention it's a cx tank in the specs but you are right, it does look very similiar

I can't imagine the rake on that makes for cafe racer style handling.

Love everything about this except for the pipes. It just reminds me too much of the bar in a handicap equipped shower or toilet stall.
