Spotlight - Bradley Field @harley_wheeliekid603

Huey Lewis once said the power of love is a curious thing. It makes one man weep and another man sing. Bradley Field, 30, is definitely a singing man when it comes to his love for motorcycles.

A New Hampshire native, Field currently resides in Plymouth and is the proud owner of this 2014 Street Bob. From a very young age, his passion for riding just grew and grew as time went by. "It all started as a young kid, watching my father build a 1982 Shovelhead Super Glide frame-up, built in the basement of our Chichester, New Hampshire home," Field recollects. "Just seeing all the love that went into putting that motorcycle together sparked my interest. Literally never looked back!"

Pictured above is Field's 2014 Harley Davidson Street Bob. He explains the bike has gone through a significant number of changes over the years; it originally began life in a charcoal gray pearl finish with black paint everywhere. Check out the bike below how it originally sat and the changes he's made to it over the years.

"I initially started with blacking the motorcycle out, always adding hints of purple because that's my favorite color," Field states.

The Thunderheader on this bike was initally black, but Bradley eventually converted it to chrome. Within the first year, he had converted the lace wheels to mag wheels, added a set of Harley Davidson Switchblade Wheels, and A Saddlemen Step Up Seat, A brand he swears by.

Bradley's bike also features Brembo Brakes off a Repsol Honda 1000, Speed Merchant Radial Caliper Mounts, and a landing pad for case support when doing wheelies. The bike also features an Alloy Art Shift Linkage, a Moons tailight, and a fully integrated Super Glide rear fender. Plus there's Galfer Rotors, Boosted Brad's Bolts all the way around the bike. He also had the majority of the bike converted to Chrome, such as a chrome timing cover, swingarm, inner and outer primary, rocker boxes, and Harley Davidson Reaper wheels.

"I've had four different set-ups on this motorcycle," Bradley points out. "My current set-up is Ohlins 14-1/2" inch piggyback suspension, Ohlins Springs in the front, heavy fork fluid. Biltwell Bars, Arlen Ness Grips and 1FNGR Levers."

"The engine has a 255 Cam, head work, and was dynoed by Culln Gillis at GRC [Gardner Racing Concepts] in Ellsworth, Maine," Bradley says of the 90hp/113tq engine on his ride. "Most of the parts were purchased at True Love Speed Shop out of Ohio. I had a lot of help on putting this bike together by Dennis over at Ultimate Cycle in Chinchester, New Hampshire. Steel Cycle Vision out of New York painted my motorcycle, now they're one of my great friends!"

Bradley strongly recommends both Ultimate Cycle and Steel Cycle Vision for their great business and quality efficient work. Bradley did most of the work himself over the seven years he's owned the bike; be sure to follow him on Instagram at @harley_wheeliekid603.
