I love customs that are built with a spare-no-expense type approach, and this Harley board tracker build is an awesome example of such. Built by Florida-based bagger and chopper specialist Severe Cycles Inc, this professional-grade build blends high-end, modern V-twin technology with visual themes from nearly a century ago.
2018 Alta Redshift EX
Last month, Alta announced that they were updating the dual-sport Redshift EX model with the new EXR. To clear out space for the new model, Alta recently started offering $3,500 factory rebates on the 2018 EX. If you’ve ever been curious about what it’s like to own an electric bike, this is probably the sign you’ve been waiting for.
Fascinating Motor – Meirson/Harley-Powered Speedway Build
View Post15 Miles – 1983 Harley-Davidson XR1000
Post Listing Update: This XR did not meet reserve despite 33 bids up to $17,900 on eBay. I’ve featured a couple of low mile XR1000s over the years, but nothing comes close to this 15-mile bike. This is the nicest example I’ve seen for sale. Ignoring the pristine condition, I like the theory of the XR1000, which was to have …
TROG Racer Ending Soon – 1941 Indian Scout Custom
Post Sale Update: This custom Scout sold for $13,600 after 20 bids on eBay. At one point, this Indian Scout was “semi-stock-correct civilian dress” when the seller ran it at the AMCA Allegheny Mountain Chapter National Road Run in 2014, but then it was “bobbed, stroked to 46 cu. in. with Bonneville cams, broken in approx. 500 miles, then run …
596 Miles – 1971 Harley-Davidson Sprint SX350
By the time Harley-Davidson introduced the Aermacchi-built SX, it was already outdated from a performance standpoint. They took the SS street bike, gussied it up with a few parts to make it a street scrambler, and the SX was born. Like most of the street scramblers of the day, it had off-road pretensions without real off-road performance. Despite all that, …
American SuperSport – 2009 Fischer MRX 650
At the dawn of the new millennium, sport bikes were incredibly popular in the US. Sales were booming and steadily on the rise, though there was a noticeable lack of sport bikes from American marques. Sure, Buell was around (as was Brammo, if that counts), but sales were aplenty and there was more than enough money to go around. So …
First Year Shovel – Restored 1966 Harley-Davidson FLH Electra Glide
Post Listing Update: This FLH was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. Named Elvis, this FLH is claimed to have been restored without any reproduction parts – either NOS replacements or just good old fashioned refurbishment of the originals. I don’t care what you call this bike, I just know that you’re going to look stylish with the …
1947 Salsbury Imperial Rocket
The Great Depression era shook up countless industries, creating a need for low-cost, high-efficiency products. So when E. Foster Salsbury reportedly saw Amelia Earhart romping around a California airport on a small motorized two wheeler, he recognized the potential of a cheap, reliable means of transportation. This prompted Salsbury to co-develop the Salsbury Aero Model Motor Glide in 1936 — …
Ex-Sheriff – 1940 Harley-Davidson EL Knucklehead
Post Listing Update: This ex-Sheriff Harley did not meet reserve despite 37 bids up to $159,977 on eBay. This piece of history started as a Sheriff motorcycle for King County, Washington and the seller claims it is documented since new with the original title, a period photo scrapbook that shows the original officer with this bike, and even most of …
2009 Buell Ulysses XB12XT
From the seller of yesterday’s MZ Silver Star comes this Buell XB12XT, also known as the Ulysses. What a great name for a ADV bike!
1962 Centaur Folding Scooter
Post Sale Update: sold for $5,219 after 33 bids on eBay. When it was released, the Centaur was claimed to be America’s only “full-size” folding scooter. It was marketed as a portable transportation solution that could be folded up in three steps and carried on a boat, plane, trailer, or car.
2016 Zero FXS 6.5
As you may remember, I had a Zero FXS on loan a couple of years ago and I thought it was fantastic, though it was on the pricey side. Here’s an example that’s at 70% of the original price but it’s got just 2,800 miles.
Firefighter Edition – 2002 Harley-Davidson FLHTC
Post Listing Update: This Firefighter Edition was relisted several times on eBay, but it never met reserve with 30 bids up to $8,500. After September 11th, Harley-Davidson released special editions of three of their models to honor firefighters and peacekeepers who helped during the attacks. This is one of the Firefighter Editions of the Electra Glide Classic. It started with …
Show Winner – 2002 Indian Spirit
Post Listing Update: This Spirit did not get any interest at the BIN of $8,888. Indian now seems to be in good financial shape but for decades the company was a mess with few reasons for hope. One of the brief moments where it looked like the company had a future was at the turn of the century, when nine …
