Custom 1996 Sportster From Led Sled Is a Bare-Bones Beauty
By Brett Foote

This wicked Sportster is cool for what it doesn't have, rather than what it does.

That's the way I like them, frame, forks, engine, wheels, go.

Nice, that head light seems like it would be pretty much useless down there though.

There's a lot to like, but also things I don't like. The headlight location is just stupid, to start. It has potential to be sweet though. Put the headlight back where it goes. Put some more natural bars on it and they'd be onto something.

By all means, don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel.

No plate or tail light, and no headlight after 5 minutes on a real road.
Nice dirt bike.
