Er Hed may have many elements of a vintage Americana to it but make no mistake this is a modern Yamaha. Er Hed was designed by Jim Giuffra of California-based AFT Customs, and of course of the ATF modeling agency. The modified Redneck Engineering frame is cradling one of the few stock parts on this bike, a 2004 Yamaha XVS Road Star engine with Mikuni HSR 42 carbs more commonly seen on custom Harley twin cams. Power runs through AFT’s own hydraulic clutch system, and other unusual details abound: the handlebars, for instance, also act as the brake fluid reservoir, and the wheels are 23” both front and rear.
