BRASS Balls is continuing its international expansion with the recent opening of a dealership in Dubai and plans for a dealership to open in Shanghai.
Preparation for the Shanghai dealership is well underway, and a Brawler GT has recently been completed and is now ready to ship for the opening of the new stockist in China.
Brass Balls Brawler GT is described by the company as being “a sport cruiser that has a neutral riding position, but the ability to convert quite easily to performance mode of riding.”
Based on the design of the Harley FXR, a bike originally designed by Erik Buell, the Brawler GT is built around an S&S EFI T-series 111ci motor that is mated to a six-speed Rivera Primo FL style transmission with oil pan underneath. “It sports a Delkron inner primary and Barnett’s Scorpion billet outer primary,” says Dar Holdsworth, owner of Brass Balls. “D&D tuned the exhaust with a 2-into-1 system and carbon fiber canister exhaust, and one of the new S&S Air-1 air cleaners makes the air flow.”
Holdsworth continues with the spec run-down saying: “Öhlins supply the front and rear suspension and we use our own custom designed and machined fork clamps with the top clamp housing our Chrono-classic analog tach/digital speedo. It has our Brass Balls Performance LED headlight up front and rear LED signal lights incorporated into the chassis.”
Given the performance nature of this particular build, the wheel package is made up of 17in BST carbon fiber wheels shod with Avon 3D-XM Storm tires, and braking is taken care of by dual Brembo radial calipers with EBC floating rotors on the front wheel, and the hand controls are from Swedish specialist ISR.
