A CUSTOM 2004 HARLEY-DAVIDSON® SOFTAIL®
Sometimes, the best builds start as something completely different. The “Pumpkin Spice” Vicla didn’t begin as a show bike—it started as a rolling parts display. But when passion, persistence, and a little bit of Klock Werk magic get involved, things have a way of leveling up.
The Accidental Klock Werks Inaugural Vicla Build
Back in 2017, Klock Werks wasn’t aiming to step into the Vicla scene. Vanessa Klock had purchased a 2004 Harley-Davidson® Softail which the shop started customizing to serve as a mobile showcase for Klock Werks parts for the shop. Then Jeremy Seanor of Lucky Strike Designs caught wind of the build. He had to paint it. Relentless in his pursuit, Jeremy convinced Brian Klock and the team to strip it down and send him the sheet metal.
The original plan? Nothing flashy. Just a solid, functional bike for events. But when the progress pictures rolled in, it was clear Jeremy had something special in the works. That deep, rich orange and expert detailing deserved more than just any parts bolted back on. The Krew had a decision to make: keep it basic, or go all in. You already know the answer.
Turning It Up a Notch
With the paint demanding attention, the bike got a full overhaul, transforming it from a rolling display to a rideable work of art. The list of upgrades is nothing short of top-tier, blending performance with unmistakable Vicla motorcycle style.

A New Appreciation for the Vicla Community
After rolling the “Pumpkin Spice” softail Vicla into SEMA, the Klock Werks Krew knew this was more than just a one-off build. The Vicla scene isn’t just a trend—it’s a culture built on passion, precision, and respect for the craft. Inspired by the people they met, the team dove deeper, crafting not just more Viclas but a line of custom aftermarket Vicla parts designed to fit the style, function, and soul of these bikes.
This build wasn’t planned. It wasn’t mapped out from the start. But sometimes, when passion and fuel mix, you end up with something truly timeless.
