The Social Clubsport: Bike Build Inspiration

The Social Clubsport is the result of a collaboration between renowned tattoo artist and The Social founder Miles Langford and Warr's London, Europe's oldest Harley-Davidson dealer. Combining Miles' creative vision with Warr's technical expertise, the project represents a unique fusion of Club Style, Performance, Hot Rod, and Chopper influences, all brought together on a single platform.

Inspired by Miles' passion for function-driven Club Style motorcycles, the Clubsport was designed from the ground up to deliver an aggressive stance and exceptional performance. Screamin' Eagle x Öhlins suspension and wider front and rear tyres create a commanding presence. The wheels are further enhanced by 15-inch Arlen Ness Big Brake discs that completely fill the wheel, emphasising both form and function.

Kraus handlebars and BMX style grips recall Miles' early adventures on two wheels. A prototype Jekill & Hyde 2-into-1 exhaust system with a race style raw finish and the ever-impressive Screamin' Eagle Heavy Breather air filter complete the performance-focused package.

Attention then turned to the styling. The fenders have been lightened with "speed holes" inspired by 1950s Hot Rod culture, while the swingarm has been dragster-style braced and carefully molded to eliminate the factory welds, creating a cleaner, more refined appearance. The performance theme continues through the addition of a Harley-Davidson fairing.

Comfort has not been overlooked, with the Switchback Collection seat and footboards ensuring the bike remains enjoyable over long distances.

The custom paintwork ties the entire build together. From the outset, Miles knew the bike had to feature flames, but not just any flames. Drawing inspiration from the iconic tattoos of Chester Bennington, the late frontman of Linkin Park, the design pays tribute to the artist who first sparked Miles' creative ambitions. Seeing Chester's tattoos at the age of eleven set Miles on the path to becoming the world-class artist he is today.

The flames are executed in metalflake, creating a striking contrast against genuine gold-leaf racing stripes. Both materials are notoriously difficult to work with and demand the highest levels of craftsmanship.

The attention to detail extends throughout the motorcycle: hidden wiring, drilled components and countless subtle refinements reveal themselves only upon closer inspection.

The finished build is as capable as it is distinctive, equally at home carving through the streets of London or Manchester as it is attacking canyon roads in Los Angeles.

A personal note from Miles

"Being part of this project means the world to me. I'm not only fulfilling my own teenage dream, but hopefully the dreams of many others as well, by collaborating with Harley-Davidson on a truly one-of-a-kind motorcycle."
