The Spanish division of Harley-Davidson recently announced it will auction off a one-of-a-kind VRSCDX Night Rod Special designed by Custo Barcelona on December 21, which will benefit the charitable foundation San Juan de Dios, to expand the resources of its children’s hospital in Sierra Leone. The Harley Custo, a humanitarian project created this year by Harley-Davidson and the designer of the Custo Barcelona brand, will be auctioned off at the Balclis Auction House in Barcelona.
Style for performance-minded enthusiasts the Night Rod Special offers a raw, street-tough attitude, with an all-black Revolution V-Twin engine and blacked-out fork legs, swing arm and other components.

A five-gallon fuel cell is located below the seat on all VRSC models.
