You have to say the young man has courage to build such an expensive toy.He sure is locking out a big market.Personally love the Harleys,no matter how fast, quick or otherwize those machines are.

Like a cat barking. The look and sound just don't go together.

As fast as a VRod Destroyer and street legal. A bit more pricey though!!!!!!
That blue one would easily spank a Destroyer. With 250 hp it will run 8s in the quarter.

Personally I think it's pretty cool with a custom bike that sounds like a high performance race bike. It will definately get attention on the streets.

I'm all for creativity and innovation, but I think those bikes (and "traditional choppers" with that sort of styling) are hideously ugly. Just one man's opinion.

Yea, when are the big manufacturers gonna come out with a sleek looking cruiser/custom bike with an high power inline 4? Bet it would sell, if it had the looks.

I would love to see one of those go against the blue one.
