Don't know why people think they are worth so much. Yes they are hard to find but the only thing Harley about them is the name, rotax engine, built in England etc. it's the same as Polaris building a bike and putting the Indian name on it.

On a side note, there is a YouTube video by "Bikes and Beards" where they buy one and put it on the road. Pretty cool video, not overly long.

Spoiler alert, bought it unseen, advertised as like new with only 88 miles on it. There's a lesson here, lol
