Kicker pedal incorrect - as well as the kicker arm is also newer - the air filer or lack of made him move the oil filter away - front brake is on th wrong side of the incorrect forks picked out above - fenders look re pop no trim holes but they were going for a military look SO - very 70s chopper lifter block tubes - very odd 3 spring seat that also looks JD in the seat with no pogo that’s gotta be a thril keep straight on turns but maybe it just collapses on the frame maybe - no hi low beam switch left side - no dimmer switch on the dash for the speedo light — just looking not critiquing
That seat setup looks like a major problem, stock setup works just fine, no reason to reinvent that wheel, especially with "more" parts instead of less.
I like the I Beam front end. Overall cool bike, but not restored.
I like the way it doesn't look like a fresh from the factory restoration. Looks like a well cared for rider, with the inevitable parts replacements something ridden for decades would usually have. Been a long time since I've fired up and took off on a hard tail Harley with a magneto, manual spark advance, kick starter and foot clutch. Wouldn't want to go very far on one today, like comfortable bikes in my old age, but to experience one of these for a few minutes again, yeah, I'd like that. And then probably say, how in the hell did I ever like these things?

no life feel in a new bike to make me want one - the entire thing is put it in D and aim it is a big turnoff for me
if it does not have a generator charging 6 volts its a yuppie bike - no matter what the Canadians say - frozen bunch of clueless peasants
I really like this one. It's really cool to me. a bike that's was built to be a rider and not a trailer queen. So many "experts" these days picking apart bikes, Give me one like this and just ride the hell out of it with pride, and confidence.
