Default Indiana Jones 4 - which Harley Davidson?

Hi,

I found this 2 pictures on the internet and I can't find anywhere an information which Harley Davidson, Harrison Ford and Shia LeBeouf are riding in the new Indiana Jones 4 movie..

I would love to write a small entry for my blog.

Any help would be appreciated..

Not a classic. It looks like a Twin Cam Softail Springer with a Sportster tank, Sportster rear fender, HD accessory catalog tank badge, tombstone tailight, heat taped exhaust, an old school seat and some bags ratted and grimed up to look like a psuedo vintage relic.

oohh.. so it's actually not a classic one.. That's interesting.. Well, I guess they use all kinds of tricks in the movie business to make current cars/bikes look old..

Thanks for the fast answer.

Especially when the kicker appears to be bolted to the frame! [8D]

Cheers!

Seat isn't mounted properly is it?
Is that the woeds "six speed" on the tranny?

Still love the looks of it.
Like to get my hands on a set of old looking saddle bags like those.

Using a new bike made to look old is nothing new. I mean, would you trust your priceless classic to an ACTOR? I hate to see machinery get wrecked for entertainment, but a new bike in production is better than trashing a 50-60-70 year old machine. I winced when I watched them crash that Norton in The Motorcycle Diary's.
I remember what Harrison Ford did to that black 55 Chevy in American Grafiti.

In Worlds Fastest Indian, the bike they filmed out on the salt flats was actually an older Cagiva with Bert Munro body work.
