The matte beige Chicano-style custom bike differs from the series by gold-plated components, a cross-shaped taillight embedded in the rear fender and airbrushed crowns of thorns on the paint. It was built on the basis of a Softail by Christoph "Chicken" Repp, head of Harley-Davidson Würzburg Village and his team.
The trip to Rome starts at the end of June
The complex conversion cost a total of 2,000 hours of work and will be auctioned off to benefit a mission project in Africa. Before that, Pope Francis will sign the machine.
Christoph Repp's 23-year-old colleague Tom Draxler will bring the rolling work of art to Rome at the end of June. The idea for the extraordinary action came from Tom's father, Dr. Thomas Draxler, founder of the Christian-based community "Jesus Biker".
