Kelly Brook’s Harley-Davidson date

Any excuse for a picture of a model bird on a bike No 37…

Here’s Kelly Brook and 2010 Playmate of the year Hope Dworaczyk (in jacket) aboard – if you can divert your gaze long enough – a custom Harley-Davidson.

The obvious question is: why? The answer less so. It’s all to promote, apparently, the UK launch of Playboy’s new Energy Drink.

Shaw’s Harley-Davidson of East Sussex came up with a customised Softail which supposedly looks like a chilled can of the new drink while the girls were roped in to help reflect the brand’s “party, sleek and sexy” image.

The bike, incidentally, is a 2004 Night Train with a 23-inch front wheel, lowered suspension front and rear, lots of Roland Sands Design goodies, tracker bars, a solo sprung seat, special paint and more.

Despite all that, though, the two leggy models somehow manage to make the 1340cc big twin look like a dinky 883…
