BLOWN, BLUE, AND DD CUSTOM’S OVER-THE-TOP LOWRIDER ROAD KING

T

he difference between being subtle and over the top can be measured in inches and not miles. For some, the lessis-more route is often taken when building a bike, where a discerning eye is needed to notice all the small intricacies of a thousand subtle touches that make the whole of the look. For others, it’s the in your face, loud and proud, success in excess that runs supreme. There’s no doubt the lowrider look is starting to gain a more mainstream acceptance across the custom crowd. With more and more builders taking on these types of builds and adding their own spin, it wasn’t going to be long before someone held the throttle wide open. Enter this 2007 Road King build by DD Custom Cycle.
