Spotlight: Abdulaziz Alkuwari's 2010 Dyna Street Bob Chopper

This week we’re heading to Qatar to spotlight a builder putting real time and craftsmanship into every inch of his bike. Meet Abdulaziz Alkuwari, 31, a rider who started customizing bikes with friends in 2019 and quickly turned that momentum into a full custom project that stands out anywhere it’s parked.

Builder Profile

Name Abdulaziz Alkuwari

Age 31

Location Qatar

How It Started

Abdulaziz got started with motorcycles in 2019, working on bikes with friends in Qatar. After learning the rhythm of modifying and dialing in the details, he stepped into his first full project bike called "The Wild Child." That first full build set the tone for what he wanted to create going forward, a bike that feels personal, looks intentional, and rides nothing like stock.

The Bike

2010 Harley Davidson Street Bob Dyna

This is Abdulaziz’s first custom bike with a full frame sourced from the United States. The frame is from Heman Fab, and it became the foundation for everything that followed. From the stance to the tank and rear section, the bike was shaped around the idea of building something clean, detailed, and truly different from the usual catalog setup. What started as a 2010 Street Bob turned into a frame up custom chopper.

Aftermarket Parts Used

  • EMD covers
  • Exile brake
  • S&S carburetor
  • Springer fork
  • Frame from Heman Fab in the USA

Built In A Garage With Real Help

The bike was built in a garage with his friend Mahmoud. Abdulaziz handled the vision and the finishing details, and Mahmoud helped get the build across the line. The build took teamwork, patience, and plenty of problem solving to make everything fit and function the way it should.

Paint and Engraving

The paint and engraving were done in Indonesia. The bike was painted by Lokalhiro and engraved by @martial.metilengraving. The combination of deep color, layered flames, and engraved metalwork is what makes this build feel like a complete piece, not just a pile of parts.

Performance Upgrades

Performance wise, the bike was converted to a carburetor setup and paired with an automatic clutch. It keeps the ride direct and matches the stripped down custom feel, while still being practical to ride.

Custom Fabrication

Custom fabrication was done on the tank, the oil tank, and the rear fender. Those pieces shape the silhouette and tie the entire bike together, especially once the paint and engraving brought everything to life.

The Hard Part

The toughest part of the build was getting everything sourced from outside the country. Waiting on parts and making sure everything arrived correctly adds a whole extra layer to a project like this.

Favorite Moment

Abdulaziz’s favorite part of the build process is the first start. That moment when the engine fires after all the work and waiting is the payoff.

What It Rides Like

When asked how it compares to other bikes, Abdulaziz put it simply. Nothing like riding a custom build compared to normal bikes. Once you’ve ridden something you built, it changes what you expect from every ride after that.

Abdulaziz, thank you for sharing the build and letting us spotlight your 2010 Twin Cam Chopper. If you want your custom motorcycle featured on Deadbeat Customs, reach out and send us your story, your parts list, and a few strong photos of the bike.
