VROD 260 Army: A Custom Harley Davidson Transformation

Overview: The VROD 260 Army is a striking custom build based on the Harley Davidson Nightrod Special. It combines elegance with aggression, boasting a military-inspired design and enhanced performance. This custom project was carried out in a renowned workshop in Malaga, Spain, where a team of skilled custom bike builders transformed this iconic model into a head-turning machine.

Built on a Nightrod Special

The foundation of this build is the powerful Harley Davidson Nightrod Special, a bike well known for its muscle and street prowess. The client, a long-time customer of the workshop, had previously ordered a BMW R65 bobber scrambler and was so impressed that they returned with a request for this custom Harley.

This project involved creating a bike that was both visually spectacular and practical for everyday riding. While many VROD transformations feature oversized rear wheels (up to 300mm or more), the VROD 260 Army features a 260-wide rear wheel—a choice made to ensure comfort without sacrificing the bike’s aggressive look. This balance between aesthetics and practicality gives the bike its distinctive name.

Key Modifications

A wide range of custom modifications were made to bring the VROD 260 Army to life, including:

• Airbox Modification: The airbox was redesigned to align with the military aesthetic, featuring custom airbrushed lettering spelling out “Harley Davidson” in a rugged, military-style font.
• Custom Mudguards: Both the rear and front mudguards were modified to match the wide rear wheel, giving the bike a sleek, streamlined profile.
• Handlebars and Turrets: Custom-built handlebars and modified turrets were installed to create a more aggressive riding posture, enhancing control and rider comfort.
• Odometer Relocation: The odometer was relocated to declutter the cockpit area, giving the bike a cleaner, more modern look.
• Number Plate Bracket: A custom number plate bracket was designed, further adding to the bike’s minimalist aesthetic.
• LED Lighting: LED indicators and lights were installed, improving both the bike’s visibility and its modern appeal.
• Custom Seat: The seat was reupholstered with military-inspired stitching in red, adding a subtle yet effective contrast to the overall army theme.
• Exhaust Tailpipes: New custom exhaust tailpipes were fitted, delivering a deep, resonant sound that complements the bike’s aggressive design.

Military Style and Paintwork

The VROD 260 Army features a matte military green paint job, chosen by the client to create a rugged, utilitarian aesthetic rarely seen on VROD models. While black is a common color for these custom builds, the military green gives this bike a unique and distinctive look that stands out.

To add further depth to the design, red accents were used sparingly, including the stitching on the seat upholstery and small detailing across the bike. These touches, though minimal, enhance the military feel and bring a sense of cohesion to the entire build.

Performance Meets Practicality

The VROD 260 Army is designed not just for show, but for real-world performance. The 260-wide rear wheel provides the perfect balance between aggressive aesthetics and rideability, ensuring that the bike remains comfortable to ride while still maintaining its bold, muscular stance.

The custom exhaust system, airbox modifications, and upgraded handlebars all contribute to a smoother, more powerful riding experience. Whether cruising on city streets or tackling open highways, the VROD 260 Army delivers the performance expected from a custom-built Harley Davidson, with the added benefit of comfort and control.
