Default Real or fake?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Harley-Davidson-...QQcmdZViewItem

Has anyone seen this style jacket before. It shows it with HD tags, but anyone could add those. Never saw this style before. Don't want to end up with a fake. Thanks.

E-mail the seller and ask them what the name of the jacket is. Most of the HD jackets have a name like Competition, Nevada, Torque, etc.

Hard to be 100% sure buying from a stranger on ebay...[&:]

The jacket looks good...the seller has 100% positive feedback...does that mean it a genuine article? No, but it's leaning that way.

To bid or not to bid...a TOUGH choice sometimes...

In the listing it says "condition: new-without tags". The one in the picture appears to have a tag on it. Might be worth asking the seller about that too.

Good point. As far as the jacket shown, I've seen one just like it at one of the HD shops in the area, so I'd lean towards authentic.

Who cares, 18$ that's a deal. Real or fake. That's like someone selling Pam Anderson for real cheap, and asking "are those real or fake" ? Who cares.
