A psychedelic-painted chopper, the visual intensity is off the charts. That old Shovelhead heart wrapped in such wild color. Combined with the hand-built form, the whole bike reads like a work of art. The world inside the builder's head is laid straight out on the road. I really love this.

Where does the Shovelhead fall in the generations of Harley engine types?

European chopper builders bring an interpretation different from the American original, which is interesting.

The flashy paint job will probably split opinion, but it's excellent for generating buzz.

Hand-shaped craftsmanship based on a Shovelhead is genuinely rare workmanship these days.

A chopper with psychedelic paint is already in the realm of a work of art.
