Fever's first build — and it made the cover. Based on a Harley-Davidson Sportster XL1200X Forty-Eight, this machine was conceived as a full Old School Bobber in appearance, but engineered with modern precision underneath.
The handcrafted oil tank was shaped by Fever in-house, drawing subtle reference to the classic Peanut Tank silhouette while widening the proportions for a more commanding stance. The surface was finished by Orange Soda Design Works in an elaborate kustom paint scheme — cobra motifs and the Fever wordmark rendered in gold leaf against deep black.
The saddle sits low and narrow in true bobber fashion, wrapped in black-and-white leather. A custom triple tree lowers the front end, the tail section is stripped to a minimal duck-tail, and brass hardware is used throughout — every bolt a deliberate detail.
