2005 Harley 883 Sportster Bobber
Steve from Waterford, Michigan, United States made available to us these photographs of his great looking 2005 Harley 883 Sportster Bobber which has a 883cc Sportster Evolution engine and a hand made dump exhaust with black wrapping and chrome tips.
Steve: "Hand tooled black leather sprung solo seat. This is a black tooled embossed leather seat in a squash blossom pattern and has a seat pan made of 1/8 inch thick steel. This makes for a very rigid and strong seat that lasts a very long time!"
"Custom battery and electronics pan. This cover is under the solo seat and is made of steel not plastic. It keeps the battery and electronics out of sight and dry."
Bobber?
With her front fender removed, rear fender bobbed, exhausts dumped and wrapped, and sprung solo seat installed, Steve's Harley Sportster has turned into a Bobber.
Those Z-bars are an extra, they are cool do but not contribute to speed or performance, and they make this a Custom Bobber.
