Unleashing Power: Custom Bike Build at Hoban Brothers Motorcycles
At Hoban Brothers Motorcycles, we take pride in transforming dreams into reality, one custom bike build at a time. Nestled in the heart of Wisconsin, we specialize in enhancing the performance of Harley-Davidson motorcycles, and our latest project is a prime example of our expertise. We had the pleasure of working with bike owner Cole on his M8 Road Glide, which started as a 114" model and left our shop as a jaw-dropping 139" turbocharged beast, cranking out an astonishing 228 horsepower!
The Build: A Monster in the Making
This build was not just about increasing horsepower; it was about creating a personalized riding experience. Here’s a breakdown of the components that transformed Cole's Road Glide into a performance powerhouse:
-
Engine Upgrades:
- Darkhorse Motor Company: We installed the Man O-War Flywheel with Carrillo Rods, laying the foundation for power and reliability.
- T-man Performance: The 139" Piston and Cylinder Kit paired with Pro Street Touring Heads gave Cole the torque he needed for an exhilarating ride.
- S&S Cycle: Equipped with MK Series Cases, Oil Pump, and Cam Plate, this engine is designed to perform.
-
Performance Enhancements:
- Horsepower Inc.: The 70mm Throttle Body ensures maximum airflow, enabling the engine to breathe better and perform at its peak.
- Thundermax: We integrated the ECM Kit with Integral Auto Tune for seamless engine management.
-
Braking and Suspension:
- Beringer Brakes: Featuring Radial Calipers and Rotors, we prioritized safety without compromising performance.
- Ohlins Reservoir Shocks: These upgrades provided Cole with improved ride quality and handling, essential for a high-powered machine.
- Kraus Moto: The Inverted Front End with custom handlebars and risers not only enhances the aesthetics but also boosts handling capabilities.
-
Tailoring the Frame:
