Default 2018 FXRT clone at ChopperFest

Yesterday, headed out to Chopperfest with some buddies and I stumbled upon this 2018 lowrider custom. I really like the old FXRT and FXRP....this bike actually used an old fairing from the touring model. The new Sport Glides are nice but this bike just takes that concept to the next level.








One other bike that caught my eye, A Harley/ Ducati conversion with a 120r powerplant. Looks like this would be a ton of fun in the canyons.




Saw a ton of cool scoots but these two were the ones that impressed me the most.

Good to see well done customs; t-bars, apes, drag bars, whatever the flavor of the day is.
Thanks for the pics!

I love the FXRT fairing, I rode behind the original for a few years in the early 90's. I'd like to do this to my Dyna someday.

That 1st bike is off the hook badass but IMO neither should be in the FXR show class. Both should be in custom builds.
