Can’t afford a Harley Davidson? …. Enter the Hardknock
Ok, so it’s not quite a Harley, but it’s a fraction of the cost at US$1,699.00 and looks the same!
It’s called a Hardknock and is a bobber in a traditional “old school” style featuring a springer front suspension, forward controls, jockey shift, electric start, solo seat, hydraulic disk brake, chrome plated TIG welded 4130 chrome-moly frame, and either a 49cc or 110cc 4-speed 4-stroke engine.
It has a 15” rear wheel and an 18” front and there’s not an ounce of plastic to be found. It is comprised of numerous polished billet aluminum components and chrome plated alloy steel.
It requires assembly so you can teach the little one a thing or two along the way. Makes a fun little project. It can be ordered in black primer or in one of the custom paint schemes so you can pimp your own bike up!
