From V-Rod Heart to Italian Flair: The Genesis of Grunwald
Szajba embarked on a journey to redefine the conventional Harley experience, starting with the core – the engine from a V-Rod. Determined to infuse a sporty and rejuvenated spirit into his creation, he meticulously built the motorcycle from scratch, utilizing only select parts of the frame and the V-Rod’s beating heart.
Artistry in Motion: Hand-Folded Fairings and Monowheels
The laborious process of crafting the Grunwald Motorcycle reached its zenith in the creation of hand-folded fairings, a meticulous endeavor that brought forth a sporty and dynamic appearance. Szajba’s craftsmanship extended to the wheels, where car rims were transformed into monowheels, and horizontally-acting shock absorbers were forged by hand. The tail, borrowed from the Ducati Panigale, added a touch of light Italian elegance to the ensemble.
Track-Inspired Performance: Racing Prowess Meets Street Savvy
Grunwald is not merely a visual spectacle; it packs a punch in performance too. Components sourced from track-ready motorcycles were integrated, featuring racing brake pumps, braided hoses, a formidable brake disc, clip-on handlebars, K&N air filters, and a speedometer reminiscent of the latest track models. To further elevate its prowess, quickshifters for seamless gear changes and a dose of nitrous oxide were incorporated, ensuring a high-octane riding experience.

From a company coat of arms on the tank to the Grunwald motorcycle name on the exhaust pipe, each silver plate bespoke of unparalleled craftsmanship.
