The customer wanted it
The customer wanted it, so we were allowed to really splash out again. And finally, we dressed the masterpiece in a royal purple robe.
Purple is the color of kings and emperors. Those who were born as such were called “porphyrogenitus”, they were born purple. Nothing has gone to our heads if we place ourselves in this tradition. But we do have a name that is easier to pronounce: Royal Purple.
Kneel before a masterpiece that even we don’t produce every day. It had its premiere at last year’s custom bike show in Bad Salzuflen. We celebrated it appropriately, but that’s not enough. That’s why we’re immortalizing the Royal Purple here too.

It is a masterpiece
It has truly become a masterpiece. This is largely thanks to the wheels, for which we have developed a new manufacturing technique. Their shape resembles our 25th Anniversary wheels, still milled as monobloc wheels from a solid block of aluminum. But then let your eyes rest on its surfaces: this is not simply bicolor, i.e. the interplay of black and free-milled shiny surfaces. Rather, it is all the colors of the rainbow that shine out at you from these surfaces. The new shine is particularly effective on the 9-inch wide 21-inch rear wheel.
Gloss should not hide. Our Anniversary wheels have been given a Noble & Bold surface treatment
After all, the bike sits in an exclusive throne, and it’s ready for the public. Our singleside swingarm kit gives the public a full view of the right side. So you should really kneel down to take a closer look.
The pulley also comes from our Anniversary series, and above all, the insane perimeter brake disk is part of this kit. Pulley and brake disk are placed on the left. And in between, we have hidden the strut for our inside license plate. So with this technoid ensemble including air ride, the left side is actually much more exciting than the right.

Playing with asymmetry
Incidentally, this play with asymmetry starts at the front end. A single Streetmaster Wave brake disk on the left-hand side is enough for the king. After all, it has a diameter of 340 millimetres, which is to be expected for a 23-inch Anniversary bike, so that the proportions are right. With the brake caliper adapter from our company, deceleration is assured and the right side of the front wheel is as clean as that of the rear wheel. Our GRP front fender covers the wheel and our GP Long bow spoiler continues the flow of the lines on the fuselage.
To grip the 340-millimeter wave brake disc, the brake calliper sits on its own adapters
And finally, as the king’s chamberlain, we found that the original Fat Boy headlight housing fits in quite well with this composition.
We put our Hollywood Light handlebars on our flat riser kit. The grips have a wonderful feel with our satin finish, they finish with drilled toppers and the stripe indicators are once again well hidden.
The same applies to the multifunctional rear lights in our steel rear fender, which also includes the steel seat shell. Once again, we left the production of the saddle to Spirit Leather. No envy: they simply have the better tailors.
Royal splendor
The finishing touch is the paintwork by Kruse Design. Purple, royal of course, almost as if born in purple, because our monarch is harmonious from the first to the last screw.
When he speaks his words through the shorty slashcuts of Jekill and Hyde, they sound like a law. Anyone who doesn’t understand that can only be deaf or a barbarian. Nevertheless, they should bow their heads, because the brilliance of Royal Purple dazzles everyone.
