Vote now for a motorcycle designed and constructed by the service crew at Kersting’s Cycle Center in Winamac and a student at the SCILL Center in Harley-Davidson’s Battle of the Kings event.

The Knox SCILL Center, student Jonathan Woods, and Kersting’s Cycle Center teamed up together to build a custom motorcycle for the competition.  The entry is a 2018 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy named “Ol Heavy”.

The Battle of the Kings is the largest custom bike build competition in the world.  The company is seeking fresh ideas and concepts for the future in motorcycles.

The motorcycle was unveiled this past weekend at Kersting’s Cycle Center at 8774 W. 700 N. in Winamac and can be viewed there during regular business hours.

There is an online public vote in progress to choose America’s favorite custom bike.  The winners will compete in front of a panel of Harley-Davidson judges who will decide on three category winners.  The top motorcycles will be voted on by Harley-Davidson dealers at the annual meeting in Milwaukee.  The winner will then compete in Italy for the World Championship.
