This is STREET LEGAL, a street tracker patterned after the mighty XR750 flat tracker. http://www.mertlawwill.com/street_tracker.htm  |

It's $26K, a little much for a toy. It isn't really a "practical" motorcycle. I mean, the chassis/frame is one off custom, no way to get any sort of luggage on it for a trip or anything, not that I'd wanna run it that far anyway. It's just an around town or short trip type of bike that is just really cool to look at. If I were going to build a tracker, I'd get a new Sportster and get the kit parts from Stortz, not cheap, but a lot better than 26K! I'd then have 17" wheels for the best sticky rubber as well. Only thing, that Storts just has high pipes on the right and a stock carb/head/intake arrangement. The absoulutely BEAUTIFUL thing about this Lawwill bike is the heads and those two flat slides feeding through K&N filter pods like the real thing. Plus, like the XR, those heads add a bunch of performance, flow a LOT better, more efficient combustion, the whole nine yards. I'd imagine those heads are better than anything with Buell stamped on it. I could see myself wheelying that thing out of the driveway...LOL! There's a sportster class in AMA flat track racing. I wonder what the rules say about heads??? Hmmm.....
I don't think those heads are available on the after market, not sure. CD would likely know, but I think they are special built for Lawwill.

Not my style but it is a very nice bike. Plus you will never see another one on a run. I ride the best bike H.D. ever made (in my eyes). I only ride FXR's now I have an old Police Bike. It is an FXR-P and you dont see many FXR's on runs either. I like being diff. and having something nobody else has. Plus it has the Police LOgo on the tanks still. That is usally the first thing they take off. So congrats. on a very nice and diff. bike. Good luck with it. | |
