  3. someone just took a look that's been out there, oh, fifty years or so and stuck a sporty motor in it.

    harley already does the same thing over and over again (v-rod notwithstanding). this is nice, but nothing i haven't seen before.

  4. Trent.. your support and enthusiasm of the work of another is overwhelming. Sure we've all seen other Sportster cafe racers but surely that does not take one iota of credit away from the fine work that this builder did.

    And personally I can never get enough of tasty sportsters!!!

    Bring it on.

  5. Wow Trent. Getting a little elitist there. Of course there's a lot of these out there. I've probably got a dozen on this site alone. Doesn't mean you can't appreciate it on it's own merits. If you look at every bike from your perspective then originality is going to be almost impossible. I'd wager that featherbed frames have had every possible engine squeezed into them that would fit. Again, so what.
