A wise man once said, if you want something done right, strip it down to the frame and rebuild it. That's just what we've done, and we've done it right. So right in fact, we made the cover of Cycle World's Power & Performance magazine. To learn more about this awesome beauty, pick up the December issue of the magazine, or read through the specs below and click on the images on the left side of this page.

Engine has all the right pieces in all the right places. It was assembled by Bruce Fischer at Accu-True Enterprises in Costa Mesa, CA. On the dyno facility located at Cycle World Magazine in Newport Beach, CA, the engine put out over 117 horsepower, well over 1 horsepower per cubic inch at the rear wheel. This is real world, usable, every-time-you-open-the-throttle horsepower, on standard pump gas with no additives. The best part is, it's all made up of real Harley parts, so it can be serviced by qualified personnel at any Harley dealership service department. The engine is fitted with an oil cooler that is thermostatically controlled, so there is little danger of overheating or detonation, even in hot weather or heavy traffic conditions. The oil cooler is mounted inside the lower chin spoiler so as not to detract from the looks of the bike.
Price: $28,000
Side Notes:
This bike was purchased brand-new at Harley-Davidson of Westminster, CA, and had zero miles on it when it was disassembled for modification. All paint and hardware is flawless in every detail. This bike was built to be a fast and dependable long-distance highway cruiser that doesn't have the "stodgy" look of most baggers, a bike that allows you to travel in style and comfort and still look good doing it. It can be parked in a lot full of other black Harleys and still be a stand-out, without having to resort to a bizarre paint job and too much chrome plating. This bike needs to be seen firsthand to really appreciate all the modifications that have been done.
It is featured on the cover of this year's Power & Performance Magazine, along with an in-depth article and photographs. If you are seriously interested in owning a truly one-of-a-kind Harley-Davidson with a subtle finish but enough power to hold its own in any stoplight drag race, then this is the bike for you.
A Kendon single bike trailer that matches the bike is also available at extra cost at the time of purchase, if desired. A Harley-Davidson storage cover goes with the bike at the time of sale, as well as Harley-Davidson saddlebag liners for the saddlebags. In addition, there is a custom, one-off sissy bar that is removable, and uses no external hardware for mounting that goes with the bike as well.
