And built in Austin (I think, 512 area code).

HARDKNOCK BOBBER

This'd be cool to ride around town on. Hell, I'd go to the local biker bar and check out the comments.

Well, they say "made in USA", but I guarantee you that's a chinese XR knock off motor, probably a Lifan. A complete engine with electrics and carb off ebay is about 400 bucks. LOL They are decent motors, though, and why rebuild one if you wear it out when you can get a new motor so cheap? Hell, almost cheaper to buy a new motor than change the oil! Well, okay, that's getting carried away. These motors do run and hold up very well and the cheap parts is a bonus.

I could see towing this thing with your bike to a rally to ride around on. That'd be a hoot. A nice rig would be a custom inclosed trailer for the bobber towed behind a Glide, built to scale. Then, you could ride to Sturgis and get a "I Rode Mine" and a "I Towed Mine" patch on the same trip.

Nice little scoot, but I already think I look too big on my Dyna...I'd look like a shriner in a parade on that thing.
