HOT METAL HARLEY-DAVIDSON CUSTOMERS WIN BIG AT THE WORLD OF WHEELS!

The 52nd Annual World of Wheels was held Jan 25 - Jan 22 at the David L. Lawrence convention center.  The World of Wheels is known for custom hot-rods, tricked out trucks, and the baddest motorcycles the city has ever seen.  Put that horsepower together with some “B-List” celebrities, and you have gear-head heaven!

It’s no secret that Hot Metal Harley-Davidson customizes some of the best motorcycles around. That thought was turned into fact and backed up by several customers who brought their bikes customized by Hot Metal down to the show.  Each customer bike placed in the bike show.

Denny Eggerton’s 2012 Black Denim Road Glide with stretched tanks and bags snagged 3rd Place in the Road Touring Bike Class.  Dani Jurnak’s slammed and bobbed Softail Slim “Stella” won 3rd Place in the North American Class with her blacked out attitude.

Ed Nassan kicked things up a notch with his 2008 Street Glide as he won 2nd Place in the Touring Class.  This bike boasts a 21” front wheel, a ghost skull custom paint job and three pipes that run under and through each of the functional stretched saddle bags.

AJ Hadad scored 1st Place in the Sport Touring Class with his 2010 Street Glide.  The bike boasts an air bag lowering system, a 21” front wheel, stretched bags and a custom paint job from Cut Throat Airbrushing in Finleyville.

Steve Jurnak not only rode off with the 1st Place nod in his Rad Touring Class, but he also was awarded the Outstanding Bike of the Show with his 2012 Road Glide “Rogue.”  The “best of the best” was built and designed over the course of several months by AJ Hadad and Mike Bakos of Hot Metal Harley-Davidson, and Steve Jurnak, the bike’s owner. 

The bike rolled off the showroom floor and right onto the lift where it was parked and quickly dismantled only to be re-built from scratch.  The bike received a 120R Screamin’ Eagle engine followed by stretched bags, tanks, custom fairing and a raked-out 26” custom front wheel just to name a few items in it’s very long and detailed parts list.

Hot Metal Harley-Davidson would like to thank our customers for bringing their bikes out in one of the coldest months of the year.  In the end it was all worth it to see everyone return home with a trophy and a little boost of confidence going into the 2013 riding season.
