Beginning with an atmospheric inlet valve on an IOE engine, Harley Davidson graduated to mechanically operated valves, although still IOE type, and the configuration was to last until 1929. Overhead valve engines were used in a few models such as the 8-valve racer and a few single cylinder models. After 1929 the engines were mostly conventional side valve types, but eventually overhead valve layouts began to feature more in the model range, and through the years became progressively more refined and complex. Following the Knuckleheads came Panheads and Shovelheads, and ultimately the factory made the VRSC type with double overhead camshafts and liquid cooling. Various types of VRSC were produced, and the VRSCD Night Rod and VRSCDX Night Rod Special were decked out in a black paint scheme with chrome and alloy highlights. Unsurprisingly, some examples have been customised, as here, with individuals giving vent to their own ideas on styling. This VRSCDX has had a custom paint scheme by the Custom Paint Shop, and is also fitted with a different swinging arm and various other components. The original swinging arm and an assortment of other parts are included with this machine. AP51 BAD was purchased by the deceased owner in 2007, when less than a year old, and has been used sparingly since, with only 5,747 recorded miles on the odometer. It has been on SORN since 2017 and should require only light re-commissioning and safety checks prior to use by a new owner. Documentation comprises a current V5C.
