2014 Harley-Davidson FLS - Softail Slim, Softail Slim. Sissy Bar. Passenger Pegs. 2014 Harley-Davidson® Softail Slim® The perfect blend of classic, raw bobber style and contemporary power creates a modern ride with unmistakable old-iron attitude. The 2014 Softail Slim® FLS model blends raw, minimalistic 1940s bobber styling with up-to-date old school minimalism. The Slim model offers tons of stripped down attitude, fat features, including black-rimmed wheels, round black air cleaner cover, Hollywood-style handlebars, and fat chromed front forks, as well as raw, minimalistic finishes throughout. Its chopped rear fender and narrow rear profile adds to the Softail Slim model's long, lean vintage chopper look. The Twin Cam 103 engine gives the Slim FLS model the power punch you need to crush those hills or leave traffic passed and behind. The Softail® FLS model sports blacked out features and raw finishes for a no-nonsense attitude that recalls classic bobbers of the 1940; the engine, rims, air-cover, headlamp and more are all blacked out Key features may include: Hidden Rear Shocks If you want a comfortable bike but love that rigid-suspension look, you've come to the right bike. We've kept all the modern comforts where they belong below the surface of a rad, vintage-looking bike. You get the classic lines of a vintage 'hardtail' frame with the horizontal rear shocks hidden in the guts. It's a signature rigid look, and you'll only find it on a Softail® model. "Hollywood" Handlebars and "Cat Eye" Console A cutting-edge ride that's rich with Harley-Davidson® history, the Softail Slim® model's old-iron soul comes alive right up front. Unique retro-inspired handlebars call back to the glory days of 1940s bobbers, while the gloss-black headlamp cover and the "Cat Eye" console with its retro speedo face add even more swing-era swagger. Twin Cam 103 Engine Innovation Fire up the Twin Cam 103 engine and feel the low-end torque unleashed. Thanks to the lightweight piston design, delivery of the added power is more refined than ever. Then put your foot on the shifter and feel how the engine and Six-Speed Cruise Drive® transmission were designed to work together. Six speeds. A strong driveline and strong internal parts. Low routine maintenance. And a low cruising rpm couldn't feel better. Engineered for Easy Handling The Softail Slim® motorcycle may come on heavy, but its been designed to handle like a dream, with easy jiffy stand lift-off and great low-speed maneuverability, so you're always riding in control. And when it's time to stop, the low-slung saddle means your feet easily reach the road. Dunlop® Tires Whether you're crossing state lines or staying within city limits, you want sure contact with the road. The front end holds a premium t
Indian : Vintage 2010 indian chief vintage for sale
$16,000
Glen Ellyn, Illinois
For sale is this low miles 2 tone red and black King's Mountain Indian Chief Vintage that originally sold new for $37,500. It has a 105 cubic inch engine with plenty of torque for acceleration along with a Baker 6 speed transmission that is smooth shifting and allows the bike to run all day on the highway at 70 MPH in 6th gear at about 2500 RPMs. It's a great highway bike. It is currently set up with a solo seat and seat rail with a luggage rack, but also comes with a passenger seat, passenger footboards and a tall backrest with a luggage rack on it as well. It also has the stage one performance exhaust and chip installed. The paint, leather and chrome are all in great shape. The only issue it has is that the windshield lock broke off and may need to be replaced, although the spring loaded clips on the windshield hold it in place just fine without the lock and it can be removed from the bike with a slot screwdriver. I'm only selling it because I already have 3 other Indians that I like to ride (1 Polaris and 2 Springfield) and this bike needs to be ridden more than I have time for so I want to send it to a good new home. There is no warranty offered or implied with this bike, what you see is what you get, so please ask any questions you may have before you buy or make an offer. If you're in the local area, you're more than welcome to come by and see it up close and inspect. It is a beautiful example of a King's Mountain era Indian motorcycle that was manufactured, in limited numbers, in North Carolina before the company was sold to Polaris. It definitely has a distinguished place in the Indian motorcycle history so get it before they are all snatched up by collectors. It's a rider that you'll truly enjoy!

FREE SHIPPING WITHIN THE LOWER 48 STATES !!!!!!!!!!! Up for sale is my latest replica build. This bike is built to resemble a 1910 Flying Merkel. As with all of my builds I have "test" rode her around town for the a few day, and she runs and rides Perfectly ! The "barn find" finish give this bike that great nostalgic feeling one would expect from the bikes of that era. All nicks, scratches, flaws in paint, "rusty" parts, and distressed logos are all purposely done to give this bike an antique look and feel. These bikes are crafted with completely NEW parts that are only finished to look old and worn. Each bike is a one off build ! For this build I wanted to produce a more traditional style replica, instead of the "Board track style" I've been building of late. I was recently bending the ear of a few of my elders that have done it all,(and still have the grit under their nails to prove it), and it struck me. The Board track style replica is not for everyone. Tho I love the feel of that style personally, others may find it less practical for riding around than the more traditional stance of these iconic bikes. If I do say so my self, I feel the goal was met, but you be the judge... From the Hand made frame, tank, and motor plates, to the rustic paint of the barn find finish, to the brass fuel line flowing to a sediment bowl, right down to the 3 spring genuine leather seat, leather front mud flap and the kickstand setup, NO detail has been over looked !!! If only everyone could come by to view and feel the bike in person. Kick your leg over one of these bikes and your taken back to those, Simpler times and roots this country was built on !!! So few originals were even produced back then. Only a small number of them survive to this day, and only a very small percentage of those ever come on the market. Not to mention that when they do, the rareness has rightly so, driven prices so high that not many can afford them. But here's a chance at the next best thing to that 100+ yr old original. The nuts and bolts... With fantastic MPG's from the 80cc 2 stroke motor, the joy of riding to the corner store or all the way across town is up to you. The extremely simplistic motor is virtually maintenance free, only needing a chain tension adjustment from time to time. Which is simply done with common hand tools. The great thing about this Moped style set up is that when you don't want to use the motor, bike functions just like an ordinary bicycle, and can go anywhere you wish to peddle it. When using the motor bike can reach speeds up to around 35mph, and with around 80 MPG the fun seemingly goes on forever. Don't let the mixing of gas with 2 stroke oil deter you, there is a very convenient alternative. Premixed 2 stroke fuels are readily available and sold at most hardware stores. I have found that the brand TrueFuel is the most common. The best thing about these type of fuels is they are ethanol free, which really helps these motors run great at a 40-1 mixture. We pride ourselves in building our bikes not only to be eye catchers but also to be completely functional, and usable day after day. You will find that all of our fuel tank are hand crafted for each individual build. Building each tank by hand not only gives each bike a functional fuel tank, but also allows us to more accurately replicate the style of tank for each individual motif. Depending on the style, each one of our tanks hold at least 1 US Gallon, giving the rider a riding range under motor power of around 80 miles per tank. So many people from different walks of life all seam to have a common draw to the timeless look and feel of these bikes. Many people like to ask questions and take a few photos, never a dull moment riding one of these around town !!! As much fun as they are to ride around town, they are just as fantastic as a functional art peace for an office, den, or as that attention grabbing conversation peace for your/his man cave. They are also fantastic for promotional events or as an eye grabber for a store front. Have had a few customers order builds to be used as "PIT" bikes on track days, and other customers have ordered a few for RVing around the country. What more fun and unique way can you think of to get around the pits and camp grounds. These fun one of a kind bikes can truly go anywhere and everywhere, and are sure to turn heads wherever they go. Shipping and Payment... AT THE BUY IT NOW PRICE SHIPPING IS FREE WITHIN THE LOWER 48 STATES !!!!!!!!!!! Any interested persons residing outside of the lower 48 will be responsible for shipping arrangements and charges. Tho I am more then happy to assist with shipping quotes if needed. If Buyer should choose to pickup bike or set up their own shipping arrangements I will gladly discount or refund a mutually agreed upon amount !!!! A deposit of $500 is due immediately upon purchase via PayPal to secure the bike. The remaining balance less the deposit can be made via bank to bank wire transfer, cashiers/certified check, money order or cash in person at pickup.

Now $14,999 was $16,499! 151 original miles. A NEW ERA Aprilia RSV4 RR represents the most important and profound advancement ever made on this extraordinary model. A development that even involved the design. The style of the new RSV4 is the result of the perfect combination of form and function. The careful design led to the creation of the most compact full size sport bike on the market, where technical elements such as the impeccable aluminium double rail frame contribute to emphasizing its racing vocation. The front end has been completely redesigned: now there is a new, more protective top fairing, created after a careful wind tunnel aerodynamics study, which provides better protection from the wind for riders of any height. This choice has a positive impact not only on the track when the rider is seeking protection to achieve maximum speed, but also on the road where greater comfort is provided thanks to the lower air pressure on the body and helmet. The characteristic triple headlight is also new, now with a more modern shape and an LED parking light. The mirrors are new, also the subject of a wind tunnel study, which combine excellent aerodynamic penetration with improved visibility and built in LED turn indicators.

Buds Vintage Cycles International Buyers Please Read Payment and Shipping Agreement Below Before Purchasing !!! These unique functional art pieces truly represent our passion for vintage cycles... Over the past few years quite a few builders have started building bikes of this kind. A few of them are building Really Nice examples. However, some builders simply use the SAME Frame, Fuel Tank, and parts, for each build ! In our eyes, simply painting them different colors with different logos doesn't do the job! Vintage Harley, Indian, Cyclone, Flying Merkels, and all the others from that era have drastically different designs.Though we understand their assembly line approach, (stocking and assembling all the same parts), makes the process of these builds much easier. We have chosen to approach building these Tribute Replicas, with "REPLICA" being the main focus. We do our best to build our bikes in a manner that one can distinctly pinpoint the Make, and Model we are replicating even without paint and logos. On this type of platform there are obvious restraints to how accurate we can come to an original bike, but we do everything possible to build our customers an example of their favorite vintage ride. Building our bikes in this manner truly gives each customer a ONE OFF CUSTOM ! Here for your consideration is our latest Tribute Replica. This bike was designed and built to be reminiscent of a traditional stance 1913 Harley Davidson. This build has many features of the iconic original. Done in a "barn find" finish, completing the motif, look and feel of a vintage survivor. This bike is 100% finished and ready for a new home. We road test all of our builds to ensure that they arrive tuned in, problem free and ready for the road ahead. Each bike is put to the test over a 3 day period and has roughly 30+ miles on the road before going up for sale.(This is why we list them as "USED") A Video of this bike Running is available for viewing. Simply message us and we will direct you to it. Bike is available for viewing at our shop for any local buyer to come take a look in person. If local and interested we would love for you to stop by. The Barn Find finish is something to behold in person. Though we do our very best to take as high quality photos as possible, photos just don't do it justice! We are NOT Professional Photographers, by any means. We simple do our best and upload the photos. We Absolutely Refuse to alter our photos in any way, with tool such as "Photo Shop" to make them look better !!! What you see in the photos is the Actual bike you will receive. Capturing this type of finish in photos is truly a pain ! With almost every bike, are customers always say "Your right, pictures just don't do it justice. Seeing these bikes in this finish is SO MUCH better in person". For each different model one could count the total number of originals that have survived to date and not run short of Fingers and Toes. One of the last public Sales of one of these extremely rare original Bikes, (a 1912 HD), sold at action this past March 2015 for a tremendous... $236,500 !!!!!!! <---- That is NOT a Typo ! I don't know about you, but we sure can't afford those prices ! And even if we could we surly would Never ride a bike that rare and expensive. So, to quench our thirst and love for these timeless bikes we build Tribute Replicas. This we feel is the Closest and Next Best thing to being able to enjoy the wind in your hair on the back of your favorite vintage bike. Kick your leg over and roll back the throttle on one of these bikes and your taken back to those, truly Simpler times. At a fraction of the cost of the super rare originals, anyone that shares our passion for these timeless examples of motorcycling history can own and better yet enjoy riding there very own Tribute Replica. These bikes are crafted with NEW parts,(some factory and hand made), that are only finished to look old and worn. Each bike is a one off build. With fantastic MPG's from the 2 stroke motor, the joy of riding to the corner store or all the way across town is up to you. The extremely simplistic power plant is virtually maintenance free, only needing minor adjustments such as chain tension from time to time. Which is simply done with common hand tools. The great thing about this Moped style set up is that when you don't want to use the motor, bike functions just like an ordinary bicycle, and can go anywhere you wish to peddle it. When using the motor, bike can reach speeds up to around 35 mph, and with around 80 MPG the fun seemingly goes on forever. Safety First...We HIGHLY suggest draining all fuel from the bike before displaying them in a home, office or place of business !!! If purchasing for display only... Let us know and we will drain, rinse and thoroughly clean out the fuel tank, carb float bowl, and motor before shipping. We will do this Free Of Charge to ensure that it is done correctly and that the bike will not only be safe to display in Home, Office, or business, but will also be completely free of all fumes and fuel smells. We pride ourselves in building our bikes not only to be eye catching art, but also to be completely functional and ride-able. You will find that all of our fuel tanks are hand crafted for each individual build. Building each tank by hand allows us to more accurately replicate the style of tank for each individual motif. Depending on the style, each one of our tanks hold at least 1 US Gallon, giving the rider a riding range under motor power of around 80 miles per tank. Each tank is hand crafted from scratch using high quality 16 gauge steel. Completely TIG welded and internally seal with a fuel tank sealer that protects the tank from internal rusting for years to come. In most of the U.S.A. these types of bikes are classified by the states DMV, (department of motor vehicles), as "Mopeds". Therefore they DO NOT require title, licensing or even a motorcycle endorsement. However, check with your local DMV to be sure of the laws in your area. So many people from different walks of life all seam to have a common draw to the timeless look and feel of these bikes. Many people like to ask questions and take a few photos, never a dull moment riding one of these around town ! As much fun as they are to ride, they are just as fantastic as a functional art peace for an office, den, or as that attention grabbing conversation piece for your/his man cave. They are also fantastic for promotional events or as an eye grabber for a store front. Have had a few customers order builds to be used as "PIT" bikes on track days, and other customers have ordered a few for RVing around the country. Also great as a compliment piece to ride in the bed of your classic truck. The best part is, at the car show pull out the bike and ride around to view and enjoy the other beautiful machines and people. What more fun and unique way can you think of to get around the pits, camp grounds, car shows or just cruise around town. These fun, one of a kind bikes can truly go anywhere and everywhere, and are sure to turn heads wherever they go. Over the past few years we have built quite a few of these fun bikes in many different styles and motifs. Though we love replicating the look and feel of the rare vintage originals, we are more then happy to build to a customers design. If looking for a great marketing or promotional piece for your Business we can incorporate your logo and overall company themes on a platform that is sure to draw attention !

[email protected] 5527 Lakeview Road, Charlotte, NC, 28269, US 2005 Matt Hotch Designs Custom Xtreme Softtail Chopper Matt Hotch Designs Custom Xtreme Softail 121ci 6 Speed Year: 2005 Type of vehicle title: Clear Primary color: Burgundy Mileage: 3700 Transmission type: 6 Speed Manual Engine: 121cu in V-Twin Interior color: Black Vehicle info Thanks to the global recession, and America's appetite for trendy pop culture, many predict the end of the custom motorcycle craze. Jesse James locked the doors on West Coast Choppers in late 2010. The O.C.C. boys closed the curtain on their epic Discovery show in late 2012. And many 'assembly line customizers' have been reduced to mailboxes of angry legal threats and unanswered warranty claims. But this isn't the end of an era; custom bikes always have been, and always will be, a big part of two-wheel culture. The only difference is, today, instead of seeing these artistic beasts under suburbanites with fat bank accounts, you'll see them under hardcore purists and skilled fabricators like Fullerton, California's Matt Hotch. With mere break-in miles on its professionally executed build, this killer Matt Hotch Softail is a fully sorted, turn-key show stopper that mixes exceptional curb appeal with great road manners. Are you a motorcycle purist who's looking for first class style, proven reliability and an exceptional price? Then stop making excuses for that cute, candy-painted bagger and step up to this super slick custom! As one of the most respected designers in the motorcycle hobby, Matt Hotch is an award winning Minnesota native who, at 16 years old, began building bikes in his parent's California garage. After back-to-back championships on Discovery Channel's Biker Build-Off, he cemented his legacy by creating custom two-wheelers for a wide variety of clients. And this stunning Softail, detailed in classic Burgundy paint, bolted together with layers of polished metal and powered by a fully sorted drivetrain, is some of the best work he's ever produced! While most 'professional choppers' are standardized, mass-produced packages that lack the intensity and attention to detail of a grassroots build, true customs maintain a level of style and authenticity that can be tweaked and massaged to create an individual masterpiece. Bringing his philosophy of "perfection is possible" to life, Matt Hotch's namesake firm completely assembled this Softail from the ground up. Once that assembly was complete, the bike's traditionally sculpted sheetmetal was, along with its hand-fitted frame, bathed in a striking and sophisticated layer of Burgundy two-stage. And the end result is a first-rate freedom machine, finished by Tom Prewitt of West Cost Choppers and Monster Garage fame, that's characterized by unbeatable curb appeal! Chock full of carefully spec'd components that promote higher levels of performance, and significantly increase that all-important 'WOW' factor, this gnarly two-wheeler is the product of an $80K, best of everything mindset. At the front of the bike, a Perse telescopic fork hangs a chrome, dual-mode headlight and long, tire-hugger fender above a polished Performance Machine wheel and 120/70 Metzeler tire. At the side of that wheel, a polished brake system utilizes custom stainless lines to squeeze a dual-piston Performance Machine caliper around a giant, drilled rotor. Above that caliper, familiar sweeper bars are capped by polished Hot Match levers, high quality Renthal grips and stylish chrome mirrors. Behind those levers, the bike's 1-inch up, 3-inch forward, 40 degree frame anchors a polished TP Engineering engine between chrome oil components and a body-matched oil tank. At the back of that engine, a chrome-capped Performance Machine belt drive hangs a full set of chrome Hot Match pegs in front of a small, LED tail light. Above that tail light, a custom fuel tank centers a 5-star, pop-up gas cap in front of a textured leather seat. Behind that seat, a full rear fender hovers over a big 240/40 Metzeler tire that spins around a second Performance Machine wheel. And at the side of that wheel, a second drilled rotor combines with a second Performance Machine caliper to provide quick, drama-free stops. The heart of this awesome creation is a 121 cubic inch TP Engineering V-twin that utilizes a high performance camshaft and forged rocker arms to turn stout 9.48 to 1 compression into roughly 120 horsepower. As America's premier manufacturer of performance V-twins, TP Engineering is one of the biggest and most trusted motorcycle engine builders in the world. At the top of the highly detailed mill, billet, Pro-Vent rocker covers lead the eye to polished and air cooled cylinders. On the right side of the bike, a reliable Mikuni carburetor slurps wind through a polished velocity stack that's seated just above heat-wrapped exhaust pipes. Below that carburetor, chrome rod covers lead the eye to a polished cam cover and liquid-filled Drag Specialties oil pressure gauge. And on the left side of the bike, a chrome coil cover rides in front of a Pro-Series single-fire ignition system. All this top notch hardware rolls on a rigid Softail suspension that achieves a vintage Hardtail look while providing a modern feel that doesn't fatigue the rider. And all the TP twin's power flows through a 6-speed Baker transmission that mixes proven technology with solid shifts and reliable cruising. The sale of this highly polished jaw dropper includes an automatic battery charger. Rivaling the best OEM-built bikes on the market, this $80K custom is a 100% road-ready head turner that features an unmatched combination of class and detail. There's a definite difference between even the nicest 'assembly line customs' and a one-of-a-kind piece like this, as every single bolt on this motorcycle adds to both its awesome curb appeal and amazing street prowess.

This is a modern replica of the early board track racers. It takes many of the styling cues of those early bikes. The frame was stretched, and the drop-loop down tube was added to recreate that classic look. It features drum brakes front and rear, a Solar carbide headlamp that was converted to use a light bulb years ago, and operates on a 9 volt battery. The two stroke engine was carefully broken in following manufacturers recommendations, about 25 miles using 16:1 ratio. This bike turns hers everywhere, and captures the mystique of this bygone era. Modern electronics and availability of parts make it fun and easy to drive today. It is one of a kind. There is no title for this bike, in New Jersey, titles are not issued for motorized bicycles, and are not necessary, but I will be happy to provide a bill of sale. I will assist buyer in shipping and cooperate with shipping companies, but buyer is responsible for making all shipping arrangements.

Jesse James locked the doors on West Coast Choppers in late 2010. The O.C.C. boys closed the curtain on their epic Discovery show in late 2012. And many 'assembly line customizers' have been reduced to mailboxes of angry legal threats and unanswered warranty claims. But this isn't the end of an era; custom bikes always have been, and always will be, a big part of two-wheel culture. The only difference is, today, instead of seeing these artistic beasts under suburbanites with fat bank accounts, you'll see them under hardcore purists and skilled fabricators like Fullerton, California's Matt Hotch. With mere break-in miles on its professionally executed build, this killer Matt Hotch Softail is a fully sorted, turn-key show stopper that mixes exceptional curb appeal with great road manners.

Feast your eyes on this one-of-a-kind BigTwin Flat-Track Street Racer built by the legendary Cole Foster of Salinas Boyz Customs in Salinas, California. Cole Foster, owner of Salinas Boys Customs, has been constructing ‘rolling works of art’ since 1989. Son of Hall of Fame driver Pat Foster, Cole creates cars that are so clean they don't have lines - they simply flow, as evident from the numerous magazine features written on these customs that roll from the bays of the Salinas Boys shop in the quiet California town. At the 2001 Grand National Roadster Show, Cole left with the ‘Chip Foose Design of Excellence’ award for his 1956 Ford F100 Custom Truck. He also built Kirk Hammett’s (Guitarist / Metallica) famous 1936 Ford Coupe, which the Jalopy Journal called “the most important custom car of our generation”. Cole simply calls it "Kirk's 36" or the "Metallicoupe". Of course, Cole also built the Moon Rocket bike for 'Mooneyes', which has been featured on countless magazine covers in the last two years. The bottom line is this: anyone involved in Hot Rod & Custom Motorcycle kulture knows all about Cole Foster and his incredible work. He is a true artist in every sense of the word. This Big Twin Street Tracker is a great example of Cole Foster’s incredible craftsmanship, as it has a design & style all its own! Heavily influenced by the 70’s era w/ that Evel Knievel feel, this incredible machine will simply blow your mind when you see it in person. Features include: Cole Foster Custom-Built Frame, Custom Tank finished in Orange & Black w/ White Pinstripe (is there any other color combo for a Harley Racer?), S&S 127ci motor w/ Harley Davidson 5-Speed Transmission, Custom-Built Exhaust, PM Brakes & Clutch and lots of Cole Foster designed one-off components from front to back. When you climb on this bad-boy and fire it up, there is no way to describe the feeling without experiencing it your self. To say that it’s fast is a gross understatement! This is a two-wheeled Rocket that will put a huge smile on your face the entire time you are onboard. It’s completely street-legal (please check your local DMV) as it was registered in northern California, and features include: Low Beam/High Beam Headlight, Blinkers, Horn, Mirror, License Plate Bracket, etc., so registration & insurance should be no problem whatsoever. This incredible motorcycle is for the guy who wants something that stands out from the crowd, a bike that screams cool! Owning a motorcycle that was custom-built by Cole Foster is a very rare opportunity, as most of his commissioned builds are in the six-figure category. To obtain a Cole Foster custom-built bike in this price range will never happen again, so, if you have been searching for a special, one-of-a-kind machine, built by a one-of-a-kind builder, you have found your bike!

[email protected] 5527 Lakeview Road, Charlotte, NC, 28269, US 2005 Matt Hotch Designs Custom Xtreme Softtail Chopper Matt Hotch Designs Custom Xtreme Softail 121ci 6 Speed Year: 2005 Type of vehicle title: Clear Primary color: Burgundy Mileage: 3700 Transmission type: 6 Speed Manual Engine: 121cu in V-Twin Interior color: Black Vehicle info Thanks to the global recession, and America's appetite for trendy pop culture, many predict the end of the custom motorcycle craze. Jesse James locked the doors on West Coast Choppers in late 2010. The O.C.C. boys closed the curtain on their epic Discovery show in late 2012. And many 'assembly line customizers' have been reduced to mailboxes of angry legal threats and unanswered warranty claims. But this isn't the end of an era; custom bikes always have been, and always will be, a big part of two-wheel culture. The only difference is, today, instead of seeing these artistic beasts under suburbanites with fat bank accounts, you'll see them under hardcore purists and skilled fabricators like Fullerton, California's Matt Hotch. With mere break-in miles on its professionally executed build, this killer Matt Hotch Softail is a fully sorted, turn-key show stopper that mixes exceptional curb appeal with great road manners. Are you a motorcycle purist who's looking for first class style, proven reliability and an exceptional price? Then stop making excuses for that cute, candy-painted bagger and step up to this super slick custom! As one of the most respected designers in the motorcycle hobby, Matt Hotch is an award winning Minnesota native who, at 16 years old, began building bikes in his parent's California garage. After back-to-back championships on Discovery Channel's Biker Build-Off, he cemented his legacy by creating custom two-wheelers for a wide variety of clients. And this stunning Softail, detailed in classic Burgundy paint, bolted together with layers of polished metal and powered by a fully sorted drivetrain, is some of the best work he's ever produced! While most 'professional choppers' are standardized, mass-produced packages that lack the intensity and attention to detail of a grassroots build, true customs maintain a level of style and authenticity that can be tweaked and massaged to create an individual masterpiece. Bringing his philosophy of "perfection is possible" to life, Matt Hotch's namesake firm completely assembled this Softail from the ground up. Once that assembly was complete, the bike's traditionally sculpted sheetmetal was, along with its hand-fitted frame, bathed in a striking and sophisticated layer of Burgundy two-stage. And the end result is a first-rate freedom machine, finished by Tom Prewitt of West Cost Choppers and Monster Garage fame, that's characterized by unbeatable curb appeal! Chock full of carefully spec'd components that promote higher levels of performance, and significantly increase that all-important 'WOW' factor, this gnarly two-wheeler is the product of an $80K, best of everything mindset. At the front of the bike, a Perse telescopic fork hangs a chrome, dual-mode headlight and long, tire-hugger fender above a polished Performance Machine wheel and 120/70 Metzeler tire. At the side of that wheel, a polished brake system utilizes custom stainless lines to squeeze a dual-piston Performance Machine caliper around a giant, drilled rotor. Above that caliper, familiar sweeper bars are capped by polished Hot Match levers, high quality Renthal grips and stylish chrome mirrors. Behind those levers, the bike's 1-inch up, 3-inch forward, 40 degree frame anchors a polished TP Engineering engine between chrome oil components and a body-matched oil tank. At the back of that engine, a chrome-capped Performance Machine belt drive hangs a full set of chrome Hot Match pegs in front of a small, LED tail light. Above that tail light, a custom fuel tank centers a 5-star, pop-up gas cap in front of a textured leather seat. Behind that seat, a full rear fender hovers over a big 240/40 Metzeler tire that spins around a second Performance Machine wheel. And at the side of that wheel, a second drilled rotor combines with a second Performance Machine caliper to provide quick, drama-free stops. The heart of this awesome creation is a 121 cubic inch TP Engineering V-twin that utilizes a high performance camshaft and forged rocker arms to turn stout 9.48 to 1 compression into roughly 120 horsepower. As America's premier manufacturer of performance V-twins, TP Engineering is one of the biggest and most trusted motorcycle engine builders in the world. At the top of the highly detailed mill, billet, Pro-Vent rocker covers lead the eye to polished and air cooled cylinders. On the right side of the bike, a reliable Mikuni carburetor slurps wind through a polished velocity stack that's seated just above heat-wrapped exhaust pipes. Below that carburetor, chrome rod covers lead the eye to a polished cam cover and liquid-filled Drag Specialties oil pressure gauge. And on the left side of the bike, a chrome coil cover rides in front of a Pro-Series single-fire ignition system. All this top notch hardware rolls on a rigid Softail suspension that achieves a vintage Hardtail look while providing a modern feel that doesn't fatigue the rider. And all the TP twin's power flows through a 6-speed Baker transmission that mixes proven technology with solid shifts and reliable cruising. The sale of this highly polished jaw dropper includes an automatic battery charger. Rivaling the best OEM-built bikes on the market, this $80K custom is a 100% road-ready head turner that features an unmatched combination of class and detail. There's a definite difference between even the nicest 'assembly line customs' and a one-of-a-kind piece like this, as every single bolt on this motorcycle adds to both its awesome curb appeal and amazing street prowess. If you're looking for years of open road freedom in a reliable, fully sorted wrapper that can be yours for an unbeatable price, you've come to the right place!

FASTTT SALES, LLC 1963 BSA ROCKET GOLD STAR This listing is for a beautifully restored 1963 BSA Rocket Gold Star in Scrambles trim. This extraordinarily rare motorcycle was restored by Tim Bardsley of Ontario, Canada. Tim is the best on these rare BSA motorcycles...he understands them and, as you can readily see, has great attention to detail! The rarity of these motorcycles is simply in their purpose. They were built for competition and competition only! Thus, the lack of electrics, tail lamps, head lamps, etc. They were ridden hard and in most cases, the limited number built, didn't survive and were damaged in competition/practice. This one not only survived, but, was in great condition and an excellent candidate for restoration. OK, all that about competition! The bike is beautiful! Incredibly beautiful! It’s small tank and racing seat....the high exhausts and the clean, uncluttered design all contribute to one of, if not the best, competition motorcycles of the British motorcycle era. The motorcycle was comprehensively restored....meaning mechanically and cosmetically. Look at the pictures and you will see the high quality workmanship.....none better!! The motorcycle has a clear title and a Dating Certificate from the BSA Owner’s Club. You can be assured that the motorcycle is accurately restored and the numbers are correct for this motorcycle. BSA Rocket Gold Stars have long been the “sought after” British classic. This one, in Scrambles Trim, is no exception! We offer this very rare motorcycle at a reasonable $14,499.

FIRST YEAR GOLDWING. The 40th ANNIVERSARY Goldwing just came out with Special Badging and Paint.Own the Inaugural bike. Low serial # 1139 bike out the door for Honda, Build date 2/75 EVERY THING WORKS. Ride it home, even to the West Coast or Key West. New rear tire and battery. Honda's Goldwing GL1000. The Honda Goldwing first saw the light of day at the Cologne Motorcycle Show in October 1974, as the flat-four cylinder, 999cc GL1000. While this first production version of the now famous Goldwing was ultimately deemed to be a success (it was after all the birth of a legend), it's place in the world of motorcycling was not entirely cast in stone at the beginning. Part of the reason for this was the fact that the GL1000 didn't really fit properly into any particular motorcycle class, even though it was officially tagged as a tourer. Weighing in at 584lbs dry, it was far too heavy to be called a sports bike and the upright sitting position also helped to kill of any such sporting pretensions. The rear coil spring suspension wasn't up to the job of handling all the weight when the rider was pushing it through heavy going, such as the winding country roads that all bikers love (at least occasionally) to tackle. The total absence of touring kit fitted as standard didn't help the official touring image either, although Honda did offer a top fairing as an accessory throughout the production life of the GL1000. Nevertheless and in spite of all the confusion about the Goldwings role in life, the GL1000 proved to be a very reliable motorcycle, quite capable of going very long distances without missing a beat and after a while the aftermarket fairing & pannier suppliers started to cater for the requests of those who wanted to use the GL1000 for more than just popping down to the shops or Sunday morning posing at the local meet. This is what finally gave the Goldwing it's place in the motorcycling world, it became a touring motorcycle more by accident than design and Honda, always keen to keep an ear to the ground, listened to what the customers wanted (just as well too or they might have killed the Goldwing off before long, not least because expected sales of the Goldwing in the first year of production were less than 10% of what Honda had predicted) and started planning the next incarnation of what has turned into a legend in the world of touring motorcycles. 40 Years of Premier Sport Touring Performance AUTHOR American HondaPOSTED Sep 04, 2014POSTED IN Street Gold Wing Timeline In the world of motorcycling, technology presses forward at such a furious pace that very few models survive a span of a couple dozen years. But for more than three-and-a-half decades, the Gold Wing® has done much more than merely survive: This remarkable machine has continued to create and define an entire segment of the motorcycling experience, raising standards and expectations time and time again. The following timeline provides a glimpse into the many milestones that have made the Gold Wing the icon it is today. 1975 GL1000 GOLD WING The original Gold Wing was much, much more than just a new motorcycle. Powered by a revolutionary 999cc liquid-cooled horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine, the Gold Wing opened new possibilities never before considered by the experts in the enthusiast press, much less the consumer public in general. What to make of this open-class machine with world-class power and cross-country capabilities? Gold Wing customers took to the open road in droves, and helped inspire an industry-wide paradigm shift toward long-distance motorcycling. 1976 GL1000 GOLD WING LTD A new model marks the Gold Wing’s second year as Honda graces the GL1000 Limited Edition with an assortment of special features, including gold striping, special LTD sidecover badges, chromed radiator shroud and screen, quilt-patterned seat, plus gold wheels and spokes. 1979 With more than 80 percent of Gold Wing production being exported to North America, a vital need arose to build a production plant in the U.S. Although Honda had been building overseas plants for more than 25 years, the move to America in the 1970s was risky. To most consumers, Honda’s quality was its strongest selling point, and building in America could jeopardize this hard-earned reputation—not just for the Gold Wing, but for all Honda products for decades to come. Nevertheless, Honda forged ahead, and on September 10, 1979, the first Honda of America Manufacturing (HAM) plant begins production as a group of 64 associates completes the first 10 Honda motorcycles built in Marysville, Ohio. Within three months, Honda’s top managers had sufficient confidence in HAM’s capabilities to proceed with building an automobile plant in 1979—the first Japanese car builder to do so in the U.S. 1980 GL1100 GOLD WING Five years of continuous consumer input culminate in the introduction of the GL1100. More than a rehashed GL1000 with 10 percent greater displacement, the new Wing incorporates deliberately planned modifications that guide it away from the superbike realm and place it squarely into the touring category. The new 1085cc engine now favors torque rather than horsepower, a longer wheelbase provides more room for both pilot and passenger, and a new air-assisted suspension system gives the Gold Wing its most supple, comfortable ride to date. GL1100 GOLD WING INTERSTATE The GL1100 also introduced another innovation that was arguably more important than its mechanical changes. Since the Gold Wing’s long-distance prowess had inspired the creation of an entire aftermarket of bolt-on touring accessories, Honda’s engineers clearly envisioned a new direction toward a turnkey, fully dressed luxury machine. In 1980, the innovative Interstate fulfilled that vision as the first Gold Wing available fully equipped with factory-installed fairing, saddlebags and trunk, plus the option of a stereo sound system. Turnkey touring, Gold Wing style, is born. 1982 GL1100 GOLD WING ASPENCADE In quick succession, Honda introduces the concept of luxury touring with the Aspencade. Amenities abound in standard trim, including LCD instrumentation, stereo, CB, on-board air-compressor and thoughtful touches such as the handy storage pouches in the passenger backrest. At the same time, through the use of Redpages in its advertising, Honda underscores its technological edge. 1984 GL1200 GOLD WING ASPENCADE The GL1200 brought the Gold Wing to the outer limits of the four-cylinder engine’s performance and sophistication. The added power and torque of the larger 1182cc engine made the Gold Wing the king of its class in 1984, with a combination of smoothness and low-rpm acceleration that couldn’t be matched. The addition of hydraulic valve adjustment now made the Wing virtually maintenance-free. At the same time, chassis improvements made the big Wing feel amazingly agile, and open-road comfort was superlative. 1985 GL1200 LIMITED EDITION Honda marks the Wing’s 10th anniversary in two significant ways. First, with the Gold Wing so firmly entrenched within the touring realm, Honda decides to drop the standard, unfaired GL1200. Second, an ultra-luxurious Limited Edition arrives, complete with computerized fuel injection, four-speaker sound system, cruise control, auto-leveling rear suspension, a comprehensive electronic travel computer and special two-tone metallic gold paint. Following the success of its Marysville Motorcycle Plant, Honda constructs an engine plant in nearby Anna, Ohio, to build Gold Wing engines. Just as Marysville’s success paved the way for Honda’s auto manufacturing in America, the Anna Engine Plant moved from manufacturing GL engines alone to building powerplants for Civics and Accords. At Anna, all the casting, forging, machining and heat-treating processes necessary to turn raw materials into finished, sophisticated engines reside under one roof. As one associate proudly observes, “We do what seven Honda plants do in Japan.” 1988 GL1500 GOLD WING In 1984 a new design team began planning the next Wing. The new machine had to be superior in every aspect: extremely quiet and silky smooth, yet extremely powerful with superior handling. The GL1500 got there—the hard way. Thousands of hours were spent in testing 15 different machines in 60 prototype stages—the most comprehensive model development project in Honda’s history. These efforts culminated in a six-cylinder luxury motorcycle of such surpassing excellence it would establish a touring benchmark that would dominate motorcycling for more than a decade. 1993 The next-generation GL begins to take shape under the guidance of Masanori Aoki, a sportbike enthusiast who has already headed up development of high-performance bikes including the CBR250RR, CBR400RR and the CBR®600F3. “We set out to keep 80 percent of the Gold Wing’s touring capability,” Aoki said. But he also added, “My job is to add more fun factor, to build a Gold Wing with the kind of acceleration and handling people normally associate with sporting machines.” After considering flat-four, flat-six and flat-eight engine configurations and displacements up to 2000cc, customer response overwhelmingly points to a flat-six of about 1800cc displacement. In 1998, a full-scale model is created. 1996 The one-millionth Honda motorcycle made in America rolls off the Marysville assembly line. Appropriately enough, the millionth model is a Gold Wing; this commemoration is altogether fitting, since the success of the Gold Wing and that of Honda in America are inextricably intertwined. 2000 In January 2000, the Marysville Motorcycle Plant is thoroughly redesigned to build the new Gold Wing. As part of this process, the engine production line is transferred from Anna to Marysville to facilitate the new Gold Wing production. The Gold Wing’s new era officially begins when the first complete GL1800 rolls off the Marysville assembly line on October 10, 2000. 2001 GL1800 GOLD WING The word “new” cannot do justice to the GL1800. Two numbers alone tell a big story: 118 bhp and 125 lb./ft. of torque. Don’t try to find other bikes that compare, because there aren’t any. In terms of power, the new Gold Wing is literally in a class of one. Likewise, the list of long-legged mounts offering a box-section aluminum frame begins with the word “Gold” and ends with “Wing.” And that’s only the beginning. Before the GL1800 was completed, Honda would patent no less than 20 technological innovations that were incorporated into this amazing high-performance luxury motorcycle. 2005 GL1800 GOLD WING The 30th anniversary Gold Wing comes in a slew of colors, including Pearl Yellow, White, Metallic Silver, Dark Gray Metallic, Bright Blue Metallic and Candy Black Cherry. Special 30th anniversary color-matched badging on the front fairing, rear trunk and dash cover also distinguish the ’05 model, as does a 30th anniversary color-matched key, 30th anniversary opening ceremony on the LCD display, and unique carbon-fiber seat pattern on pearl yellow and metallic silver colors. To date, more than 500,000 Gold Wings have been produced. 2006 GL1800 GOLD WING In 2006, the most potent Gold Wing ever produced now elevates luxury motorcycling to unprecedented highs. A six-speaker premium audio system with 80 watts per channel comes standard on every new GL1800, and riders may also opt for a satellite navigation system with color screen, a Cold-Weather Comfort Package and an industry-first fully integrated motorcycle airbag. 2012 Manufacture of the Gold Wing shifts to the ultra-modern facility in Kumamoto, Japan, where production on a gigantic scale will see as many as 1800 motorcycles produced in a single day. The new 2012 Gold Wing brings upgraded styling along with a dazzling array of sophisticated electronic amenities including a next-generation GPS navigation system with user-friendly programmability for sharing favorite ride routes, which can be accessed online via computer, plus a built-in MP3/iPod® interface for the new SRS CS Auto™ technology surround-sound system. The 2012 Gold Wing also boasts increased luggage capacity, greater protection from wind and weather, revised suspension settings for enhanced ride compliance, and unparalleled comfort for both rider and passenger. In addition to its power-laden yet refined drivetrain and delightfully sporty handling, packages for ABS and airbag do much to further the Gold Wing’s reputation as the most celebrated touring machine in motorcycle history.2015 To celebrate 40 years of this incredible machine, all 2015 Gold Wing models come with special badging and embossed seats.
