Harley Sportster XR1200 Apex Predator by Querétaro

.  

The winners from previous “Battle of the Kings” competed with their custom bike building skills to take the coveted 2020 ‘King of Kings’ title.

This year saw 18 previous winners from 12 different countries come together to the battle to be crowned the “King of Kings”.

The crown went to Oscar Peralta and Harley-Davidson Querétaro, Mexico with their stunning “Apex Predator”.

The inspiration came from the desire to create their vision of the ultimate Sportster XR1200, using this model as the donor bike.

Agustin Anguino, Luis Fernando Perea, Rodrigo Perez, Eduardo Trejo and Yeyo complete the Querétaro team.


The team started the design of the Apex Predator with the mantra, “Born to attack without a challenge. Born to live without rival”.

The bike clearly demonstrates the technical abilities within the Querétaro dealership, with a stunning hand crafted 2-1-2 under seat exhaust, combined with a vented hand-built tail unit that accommodates the one-off upswept exhaust.

Creating a flowing line from the wave brake disc rotors and upside-down Showa big piston forks at the front.

The clean uncluttered front end uses the LED Daymaker headlamp from a Harley-Davidson Breakout. The bikes lines and design are uninterrupted by the TFT flat panel dash taking nothing away from the design.

The bike also boasts a collection of custom hand and foot controls, paired with the hand finished Alcantara seat unit.

Additional bespoke bodywork incorporates the twin air intakes complementing the stance of the bike.

The exceptional Sterling Green paintwork supported by acres of powder coating with accents of yellow, add a luxury feel to the final presentation.

Querétaro Harley-Davidson’s entry Apex Predator is the ultimate representation of the flexibility and capability of the Sportster.

It shows that from choppers, bobbers, café racers, and the racetrack, the Sportster has an unmatched pedigree of expression and community among motorcycles.

Since 1957, the Harley-Davidson Sportster has created more individual custom bikes than any other. With its classic lines, characterful Evolution V-Twin motor and a huge selection of Genuine Harley-Davidson Parts & Accessories, building your perfect bobber, café racer, tracker or chopper is within easy reach.
