    I hear that the Harley Chrome Consultants are going to be selling 8 track players and speakers as farkles so they sound like Harleys. It is not wise to upset Big Dog, Mad Dog, Igor and Bruce with Harleys that are quiet.

    Probably only rechargeable at Harley Dealers...

    On the upside, they could exchange their chain-drive billfolds for extension cord billfolds. :)

    I heard that they come with an oil tank that's designed to slowly leak and leave a small spot wherever you park it.

    This is not the first Electric Harley. Two Wheels in Time Museum (Maggie Valley) has one from the fifties that Harley made.

    I was just reading about this in Time magazine. (yeah, it's still published :rolleyes: )

    Looks kind of like a Brammo/Buell. Too bad they threw away all those parts.

    I do think it looks pretty cool, though.

    Projections put the price north of $20,000, though.

    I like the looks too. However with that stretched rear end, it'll probably corner just as well as a traditional Harley.

    I like the looks. The bike is a working prototype. Will it sell? Not in it's present form.

    I bet there's enough juice in that HD battery to cook one of those cats in just minutes. Just a jolt might make their hair stand all up so you could see the fleas and pick them off. Harley could use this idea for cooking roadkill as a sales incentive.

    I got a Great idea Let's rig the Harley seat to the powerful battery's and then tell bad Billy that there is a bike outside that has the keys in it, then Bad Billy will of course try and steal it and the Troll will fade into History in a pile of Smelly Black S:kaboom::banana:moke.

    So how much was the bike OTD? Did you get a good trade in for those cats you are trying to move?
