well ive seen everythink now and $150.000 http://techdigest.tv/2008/01/hubless_harley.html
What's the fucking point of that then?
That would be a busted wreck ater half an hour if it came on a good run with us, piece of shít.
And it aint a 1969 Harley Davidson Pan Shovel at all, it's a Generator Shovel engine, the pan/shovel hybrid has the finned generator cover from the panhead, thats got a smooth Genny Shovel one.
Stoopid, attention seeking, fairground-ride building, wanker. :mad: :mad:

perhaps he should have done it before billy lane and then it might have been impressive
love to take that on a run round here, what odds I get for it dying dramatically after hitting a couple of the potholes that litter my local roads LOL

some businessman will buy it as part of their midlife crisis, and it'll end up gathering dust in a garage when they realise they're not the Easy Rider they thought they were. :D :D

oh my god, £4,849.99, Right then, lets get ourselves down the dump, find some old plastic picnic tables and some computer chairs, some green felt, and a set of 30 colourful felt tips, and start whacking these out in our spare time, This time next year, we'll be millionaires!!

The other side must look rough, that skinny hub must have a belt drive and brakes stuck on it, first the enging is driving to a large wheel instead of the other way round so it will knacker the engine, and the brakes have to act on the hub rim as well which at speed might pull the wheel out of shape...But it could win some shows and a rich man could buy it to sit with a collection, it will make a nice ornament but I agree with Taff. It will not last long on the road...and don't even think about putting anything on the back... :D John

They are building Harleys now John , with no visable brakes at all..
They fit a caliper to the engine sprocket, and use a new fangled hub brake for the front.. viola.. no visable brakes but two disc brakes on the bike..
I bastard hate this fashion for hiding fucking things that we all know gotta be there, it's fkin anal.
Personally i want my bike to look like what it is, a big ol' noisy machine with a big old engine, and grett big fucking mechanical stuff to make it stop and go.
Bastard hidden brakes now then, to go with internal throttles, unseen switches to give fully 'clean' bars, why not just put fuck all on the show stand, then brag to everybody about how it's got that fully clean look?
Bout time somebody told these pricks that the Emporer aint got no clothes on.
