I get such a kick out of this, the folks on the Honda forum are saying yeah, it's not a Harley.... Too funny.

Not any more. There are customs out there that are not Harley at all and they look sweet too. I can't remember the last time I saw a custom/chopper that was actually a Harley or had enough Harley parts on it to call it a Harley.

I saw it at the NYC show. I was shocked to see how poor & sloppy the frame joint welds were. I took a closeup & I'll post it soon.

Fit and finish will be poor for what they are selling it for. They might sell, or not. I think they are a little late in bringing this to market, they would have had better luck 1 1/2 yrs. ago. I would not buy one but someone might.

By real one I mean a custom built chopper. Something either built in a garage or by a major chopper builder. Obviously not everyone can afford a $40,000+ American Ironhorse, Arlen Ness, Martin Bros., etc. Chopper. Some can't even afford to build a their own. If Honda sales this thing cheap enough, it could have decent sales. Ofcourse with the economy like it is currently I'm sure everyones bike sales are down.

Don't even get me started on sloppy welds. Look at the crap welds Harley does on the down tubes of the Sportster. A first year welder could do better with a BS weld machine.
