This Harley Davidson project was not a quick tank-only respray. At our Brisbane studio, each component was assessed, prepped, and finished so the motorcycle presents as one cohesive build — fairings, fuel tank, fenders, covers, and supporting panels all received the same level of care.
The owner wanted a refined grey look with strong contrast: satin-to-gloss grey bodywork, matte black engine and chassis, and yellow/orange racing stripes that pick up light without overpowering the design. The result is a Harley that reads custom and contemporary, not factory stock.
The Harley Davidson Grey colour story
The hero colour is a high-gloss metallic grey applied to the fuel tank and fenders. In the workshop, panels were laid out and sprayed as a set so colour match and clear-coat depth stay consistent across the bike — critical when you are rebuilding a look panel by panel.
Custom branding on the tank includes:
- A Harley-Davidson bar & shield motif in black with orange outline
- Subtle Kustom Corner script — our signature on show bikes and client builds
Accent details that define the Grey build:
- Twin yellow racing stripes on the front fender, mirrored on rear fender work in the studio
- Blacked-out forks, engine, and frame for a street-custom silhouette
- Red diamond-stitch seat for contrast against grey and black
- Red tyre lettering for a subtle motorsport edge
- Derby / timing cover finished with a custom “16” motif in yellow and black, tying the accent colour through the drivetrain
The liquid-cooled 500 engine badge identifies this as a modern Harley-Davidson Street platform — ideal for riders who want urban Harley style with a full custom paint and restoration treatment.
