Willie G. Davidson, legendary artist, designer & grandson of one of the founders of Harley-Davidson once said: “Our riders make their motorcycles their own. As an artist, I am fascinated by the creativity of our great riders. From minimal paint or a chrome part, to a complete radical custom bike, there’s a little bit of everything – thousands of Harleys and no two alike.”

Unleashing Your Harley's Potential
Harley-Davidson motorcycles are renowned for their iconic design and powerful performance. However, true enthusiasts know that customization is the key to unlocking the full potential of their ride. From enhancing performance to adding a personal touch, customization allows riders to express their individuality.
Here are 5 places to start customizing your bike:
- Handlebars
This can change your riding position on the bike for style or comfort. Changing the handlebars can help you ride longer distances more comfortably and there are many different styles to make your bike stand out in the crowd and fit your style.
- Seat
Changing the seat on your bike can make a world of difference especially for those who ride long distances or for folks who have a shorter inseam. Before committing to the expense of lowering your bike/suspension to be flat-footed, be sure to ask about seat options. Some seats can bring you multiple inches lower which might be enough for you to feel flat-footed and confident. Don’t forget about your passenger seat and backrest options as well!
- Upgrade the Exhaust
Exhaust not only changes the sound of your bike but can boost the performance.
- Wheels and tires
A new set of wheels will change the look of your bike, and also change how it handles.
- Lighting
A great way to make yourself more visible on the road or get noticed. There are seemingly unlimited ways lights can add style flare as well with unique colors and locations of accessory lighting.
- Suspension
Upgraded suspension will add comfort to your ride and change how the bike handles. Suspension is oftentimes overlooked as an upgrade because you feel it more than you see it - but it makes a significant difference!
- Foot Controls
Changing the position or size can improve the comfortability of your ride. Footpegs vs. floorboards,
