Harley-Davidson Built by a Watch Maker has Hefty Price Tag
By Bruce Montcombroux

This custom Harley is an outrageously expensive Softail Slim S.

I like bikes I can ride. While I appreciate the work, it’s not for me.

Looks like you need to make an appointment with a urologist before your first ride. Can you say squashed privates?

Edit: What part of it even qualifies it to be Harley Davidson? Did he get a trademark license from HD?

Obviously he doesn't plan on taking it to a dusty campground and firing those pipes off.

It really misses the whole point of riding a Harley. The joy is in riding a FUNCTIONAL piece of visual and auditory art. That bike is an extreme example of how wrong it is to have a garage queen.

Pretty sure this bike was not designed to ride long distances or even cruise around town guys. Definitely meant to go to bike shows to show off the craftsmanship. Looks pretty cool and is somebody's 'artistic interpretation'. Appreciate it for what it is.....not what it isn't.

What an utterly useless piece of ****....It's ugly too in my honest opinion.
