Thumbs up I know Get a Real Bike or RealHarley but.....

..But if gas got up to $4/Gal - Just for tooling around the neighborhood & work commute what a fun alternative cost equivalent to a scooter....And if a real Harley showed up I'd duck down a back alley

Nice little Bobber it may look cheap but that little bike will cost you $2,000 or more to build.

This is the one I`am building now a 650 twin Cafe Racer your looking at $1,400 as it sits in mock-up should end up around $3,000 finished.

Now that's a nice project you're working on

The bobber in the video is available in kit form with as large as a 200CC engine. Made in America but with a Chinese Lifan motor. I think there'd be problems trying to get it street legal her in Kalifornia

Not sure if you're talking about who owns a Harley or who owns one of what's in the video.

Actually the video is about the Hardknock Kicker which is obviously not a full size bike. I'm asking if anyone owns one of those. Sure it's a wannabe bike, but @ $3k in kit form with a 200CC motor it would be a neat alternative to a vespa or moped for tooling around the hood.

Of course the ultimate would be a HD, but $$$$$
