Exile Cycles is a scam. They take semi custom parts and sell them for double to triple what it cost to "make them". By that I really mean they buy parts from a dealer that they get cheap for buying in bulk then do a single color paint job and stamp exile on the part. They'll make you pay 30 grand for a part kit that they could sell for 8 and still make tons of profit. I've been making custom bikes since I was 16 so I know it's pricey to fabricate your own parts but that's just ridiculous.
Harley davidson Iron Eagle 883 Sportster equipped with springer front end ,and the same pipes as youtuber,(Harley Davidson 48 with exotic choppers pipes)Has on his bike, sound ? Perffect!, Cafe handle bars,And 6 inch head lamp with visor, and cat eye,(Solid wheels Front and Rear, Flat blacked , no shine. with brass capped rivets on the bead lock.)Now that you Dork fish is how to build a custom bike.
Reading the comments below, asking where are the levers etc and how do you remove the seat post .... listen to what he says... the brakes are linked, the gearchange and clutch are different ! Some people should listen with their mind, and not just their ears before asking stupid questions ... nice bikes Russell - nice enough for those who cannot build their own.
@49cobra No , you un-bolt it - it is a false post ,ie not a part of the frame. Listen to what he says and engage your mind to C-O-M-P-R-E-H-E-N-D what he says .
@DeniskaFromRussia no kidding! where are the brake levers....and the clutch?! I like using my transmission (i know its centrifugal) but ya should still have one if ya want to use it
Typical bell end American! Shouts his mouth when a simple Internet search could have told him where Russell grew up! Shoot first then look to see who we killed! American rule of thumb!!
kidda,,,,I could care less where he is from!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!liverpool,bristol same thing!! Stay in your own country. Oh yeah they don't make H-D over there!! P.S maybe if your good boys we will loan you an American aircraft carrier since you can't keep one running yourselves!
love Exile - good, solid, bikes. I like the fact that the look is simple but underneath there are some great designes and a very unique take on motorcycles and motorcycle building. Very good job Russell,
its clean and all but kind of boring. everything is so bulky is like looking at a old cadillac. I still way prefer Larry and Shinya's style of bike showing the nuts and bolts and lines hanging out.
I have a lot of fav. Builders but nobody does it like exile cycles . My 2 favorite bikes rusell built is the Hot Rod which he entered on world biker build off and the black bull bike.
I admire the way Russell designs stuff for riding. Exile has never built a trailer princess with over-chromed, useless doodads that do nothing to get you down the road. It may not be your style, but it does function, and I like that.

$5- for a pack of Scotch-Brite pads and you too can have the same look on your stock Harley. Just "scuff" all the chrome. "Automatic" clutch with suicide shift? If you want that, you should just stick with a mini-van. And good luck adjusting the bars to what is comfortable for you without a cut-off wheel and welder. DIY and feel better about yourself when you ride instead of pose. Get an S&S air filter cover and "Scotch-Brite" it. Don't buy the hype!

I love this look. I would be worried about burning my knuckle on the belt when I shifted but still really awesome.

Build a real bike, I havent seen any one,
take the 887 Iron head, and use it to build
a Hill climber clone, or look a like. Almost like a bored tracker,

This is why he is a biker builder and most of the others are just building crap!
His bolt-ons even customize more than the others. And this bike looks better than most builders can do from the ground up.
With all of his bikes they are ridable!
