Rough Crafts Hooligan Tactics Forty Eight<\/p><\/div>\n

The project started with a customer who gave his slightly customized Forty-Eight to do whatever the guys at Rough Crafts liked with it.<\/p>\n

\u201eAfter the Urban Cavalry build, the idea of a Sportster\/Street Fighter version of it has always been in my mind, when an owner brougt us a slightly modified 48 and told me to do whatever I want with it, it’s the perfect chance, just so happened I have a XR1200 swingarm laying around, the rest of it like inverted forks, Progressive Suspension piggyback shocks… etc kinda just falls into place naturally, then developed a prototype seat\/tail section that’s going to production soon, you’ll see it works out well with Streetfighter, tracker, or cafe racer, for the paint I want to push the “tactics” feel more so went with a blue-ish grey digital camo which was rarely used in the custom Harley scene and it worked out perfectly. and yes the tank was modified from a sportster tank too.\u201d says Winston Yeh from Rough Crafts.<\/p>\n
