With a shared passion for the open road, Dar Holdsworth and Darwin Bikes envisioned the Brawler GT as an all-American motorcycle that seamlessly blends practicality and adrenaline-fueled excitement – capable of being ridden daily or unleashed in spirited adventures?
Based mostly on the Harley-Davidson FXR body, Holdsworth developed and constructed a brand new body, incorporating the mighty twin-cam, V-twin S&S T-124 EFI engine, boasting an enormous 124 cubic inches (2031cc). The sheer facility and unbridled torque produced by this formidable powerplant defy hyperbole. To achieve a harmonious balance between cruising and high-performance riding, the bicycle is equipped with a six-speed Rivera Primo transmission, a robust chain-driven rear wheel, lightweight BST carbon wheels designed for optimal speed and maneuverability, precision-crafted ISR calipers, and advanced EBC floating rotors that provide exceptional braking power.
With a focus on exceptional ride quality, high-performance Ohlins components were selected for both the front and rear suspension systems. To further enhance efficiency, a bespoke aluminum swingarm was installed. The intricate metal components of the bicycle were painstakingly crafted by the skilled artisans at Cooper Smithing Co., their individual hands shaping each piece with precision and care. The seat features a slender profile without sacrificing comfort, crafted with cutting-edge foam technology.
With its perfect blend of vitality, design, and artisanal expertise, the Brawler GT embodies the essence of an authentic American motorcycle, capable of delivering both everyday reliability and thrilling escapades.
