It is a Harley to those of us that know better.The engine is copied exactly as a Harley engine with many upgrades. It really does not matter, if the engine is identical to a Harley and sounds like a Harley,it is a Harley no matter who's name is on the points cover.Why make life so complicated.

Yea, when I was into off roading I put small block chevy's in everythin from Jeeps, Toyotas, and even a Suzuki samurai. Doesn't make them all Chevy's. That's a chopper, not a Harley.

True, but for the record, I admit that I have never cruised between 110-170!!!

he may only go up too 110 but he gets there a hell of a lot faster than a Harley can.
How fast do you ride your bike 99% of the time?

However I wouldn't want to ride the thing regardless of how fast it goes.

If I take my fatboy when I go out with my sportbike buddies, they are never under tripple digits, especially on the highway, my pretty much stock fatboy feels fine at 110-120 and I payed a little over 13k for the whole thing...

Not disputing the chopper,but it is a Harley powered chopper.Been building, riding and racing Harleys since the early 60's what's important to me is all that matters.I only talk in detail about one VTwin all know which one that is.My latest two Harley motors happened to be built by R&R Cycles and S&S Cycles.We are all wasting our time butting heads,we all know what opinions are and mine is all that matters to me.Nuff said!
