As far as I know, not officially connected to Warrs Harley dealership, but one guy's homage to a century of London Harley sales. I like the Victorian engineering style of this. Seen at the Ace Cafe in London today.

That big stop light don't help it's looks one bit, if it had been side mounted I think it would look better.

I like it -mainly cos it's a bit different from the Harley norm. Not sure whether it's a dealer built machine or a private owner's build, but it seems to pop up quite regularly at the Ace Cafe in North London, so I assume it's local. The styling's a bit messy -a little bit vintage, (Brough style fishtail exhaust etc), a bit flat tracker, a bit Harley 45. I know what you mean by not flowing smoothly Shaun, but I like all the quirky detailing & the build quality's very good.

Far too "off the shelf" for me.
The gleaming engine etc overwhelms the old school patina.
Why the fixation of shiney/Harley.
Our mates The Slim Panatellas had some gorgeous old look, arse draggers that WENT!
A Harley with NO chrome.
Some lovely balance of the straight and curved line to play with.
Me old un, Loads of satin black powdercoating......Everyone to their own. Whatever it is, the person riding it, doing it, that's the crack.
Look at DICE magazine, and compare. Now that's a BUZZ!
I know through riding as a pack, what gives you a buzz like amal nitrate.
"We" used to park over /down the road from "this, as pic posted" lot.
What has Fred got to do with this?
Brass. Oh yes, Twisted.... Looking to have a load of it, polished and unpolished on the newie.
Turned, knurled twist grips...A LOT of ideas on a big drawing board.
..and Yes, Manky...
A stainless, Brough Sup style, pair of hand crafted fishtails. Long and luscious!
This is the template....Brough Sup and...a fusion of....
Google - MG K3 Magnette.(images)
BANG!This is the baby for my exhaust.!
