Mazinger Z Harley-Davidson Sportster Scrambler

This is the motorcycle that Kōji Kabuto would use for his adventures when he was not piloting his famous robot Mazinger Z to fight against Dr. Hell.

MAZINGER Z was created by the Japanese cartoonist and scriptwriter Gō Nagai. It was first published in 1972. The story is about a group of scientists who have a giant robot at their disposal in their fight against the evil forces of Dr. Hell. Personalities from the world of cinema such as Guillermo del Toro have admitted to having been inspired by Mazinger Z when creating the film Pacific Rim; or Michael Bay who stated that the Mazinger Z series had a great influence on the Transformers franchise. And Fran Manen, owner of Lord Drake Kustoms, was inspired by Mazinger Z to create this Harley-Davidson Sportster scrambler at the request of a client from the Netherlands.

The Mazinger Z Harley-Davidson Sportster highlights components such as Ohlins shock absorbers, custom rims, brake discs, exhaust pipe, front fender, and an endless number of other details that will not leave anyone indifferent. The paint job was inspired by the colours of the Mazinger Z robot, with the front of the bike being the head of the robot and the back being the feet. The tank has the name Mazinger Z (マジンガーZ) in Japanese and the number 72 in reference to the year of the series’ premiere.

On a technical level, it is worth noting that this Harley-Davidson Sportster is one of the first units of a new production line of scrambler motorcycles created by Lord Drake Kustoms under the name of DRAKER 2 (these models have been created with two seats in which a new rear has been used, composed of a subframe, seat base and fender, all incorporated in a single piece and built in metal.

The DRAKER 2 can now be ordered from Lord Drake Kustoms. You just have to choose your colours, finishes, or even the theme as is the case with this Mazinger Z, and they will take care of building it and sending it to your home, wherever you are, anywhere in the world.
