Sturgis, S.D. (February 22, 2022): The Sturgis Buffalo Chip and legendary aftermarket parts and custom bike builders Arlen Ness Motorcycles have unveiled a one-of-a-kind Harley-Davidson Road Glide built to be auctioned off at the 2022 Legends Ride charity event kickoff at Outlaw Square in historic Deadwood, SD Aug. 8, 2022. See the unveil video at LegendsRide.com.
The highlight of each year’s Legends Ride festivities in Deadwood is the special live custom motorcycle and art auction. This year’s auction features the truly unique race-inspired performance bagger by famed customizers Cory and Zach Ness. The stock Road Glide model, sponsored by Black Hills Harley-Davidson, includes a wide array of performance upgrades.
The Ness Road Glide is the first bike showcasing the new line of Performance Bagger products from Arlen Ness Motorcycles. Ness added extra horsepower to the Milwaukee-Eight powerplant in the form of a gold Ness Method air cleaner and a Vance & Hines 2-into-1 racing exhaust. The build features the new Pro Short fender, Legend Suspension, LePera seat, Ness Method fork legs and the wild gold anodized Ness Y Spoke wheels. Eye-catching Ness gold anodized floorboards, pegs, shift lever and derby cover, along with a stunning paint job from Riff Raff Customs complete the distinctive look of the bagger.
“As long-time supporters of the Sturgis Buffalo Chip’s Legends Ride, we love when we can all come together to support outstanding causes like Special Olympics and the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum,” said Cory Ness, president of Arlen Ness Motorcycles. “This Road Glide is a great package from front to back. We’re looking forward to seeing it being auctioned off, as well as seeing everyone on the ride.”
Cory and Zach Ness will be among the list of celebrity guests taking part in 2022 Legends Ride festivities. Rider contributions from the event benefit South Dakota Special Olympics – Rapid City Flame and Sturgis Motorcycle Museum & Hall of Fame.
