It sure seems someone is very confused or trying to fool someone (maybe himself).
Yes, this is not a HD slam

Well, if it is a Mercedes, they haven't done much to the bodywork. That fairing(the entire bike really) looks like the BMW K100 from the mid '80's. The "flying brick" engine might have been warmed up a bit because I don't remember the K100 having the ability to do wheelies like that. Or maybe I just never saw a rider with the ability to "make" one do it.

Because MB does not make motorcycles.
That bike is a 92-93 K100RS
If you put HD ElectraGlide script on a Valk Interstate, it is always going to be a Valkyrie. Some people are dreamers, others are scammers. Then there are enthusiasts and purists.
