South Garage “Opera” Harley Sportster 883

If their work on the “Nerboruta” BMW R75/7 was any indication, the people at Milan’s South Garage know their way around a custom bike build or restoration. The latest is based on a Harley Sportster 883 and dubbed Opera. Custom copper and brass accents and piping. Handmade leather hand grips and saddle. Stretched tank with custom deco style detailing. Single offset gauge and offset headlight. Between all these aspects, the grill work and the organic exhaust bends, this bike is equal parts steampunk and American muscle. The only problem we foresee with this bike is the fact that it might just be too pretty to ride.
