Ah. So that's what a real HL looks like. I think most of these replica's are getting further and further away from that. Oh well...... ::)

Gee I don't know. Enough billet aluminium to build space shuttles, the mandatory ohlin fully adjustable shocks, 14 inch's of suspension, rims that would make a hooker blush. You know. All the stuff that they had on them in 1978.
To be fair though, guys do the same thing with their Maico's  :-\

the tanks not the challenge, finding a decent seat is harder.
