So is it a full blood Harley or one they wish they never made or had made ? Are they worth any money ?

My oldest brother bought one for his wife to ride in the early 70's when they were living in the FL Keys. She loved it and rode the wheels off of it.......... He swears that it would get almost 100 mpg. Now that I think more about it hers may have been the street version instead:  I called my brother to ask him but he isn't home.

My son has an Arimach, and it was priced out at $3,300 by the Insurance adjuster buddy of his. It started life as a 50cc and it now is close to 110cc. Just changed th barrel and bucket. They were made in Italy for Harley Davidson. Harley couldn't get a good 2 stroke engine to hang together. 3rd bike from left. Little Blue monster.

Man that is some small pistons.
My pistons on my Harley are 793cc per cylinder.
A Valk has 253 cc per cylinder of displacement.

Had to kill a couple hours before we took off this morning as my ridin' bud Paul ( Wimp ) had a few things to do this morning. I took off and did some local backroads mostly following the Clinch River as best I could. A local pawn shop has a yard full of old trashed out bikes and I took a few pictures.   Joe is that the cycle yard on Clinton Hwy ?? Looks familiar.......

I had three of them when I was a kid. An M50 sport, a 125 Rapido and a 250 Sprint.

I'm sure that her being worth millions has nothing to do with that Paul  She's got a ol'man he was there today she told me one time at The Fall Color Ride " I just keep him around to talk too "  Wimp and I went in the house today and sit around just shootin' the s**t with her... She's a pistol no doubt.

I think TODD would fit right in with those guys...He's the only person I know with a $25,000 1800 Goldwing with a 20 year old dirt bike fender on the front  When you get that bike cleaned up send me a couple pictures that show the Lucky13 exhaust system

Has Harley done that since ? Let someone build the motorcycle and slap a Harley name on it... How many years did this go on ?

Real Harleys have been built in Japan as far back as the 30's and 40's.
They called the bikes they built over there a Rikuo, or Road King.
Harley sold them all the stuff, molds, machines , blue prints and Japan paid them a royalty or money for
each design.
Because of the depression and all they stayed afloat like this.
This also helped the Japanese learn a lttle thing called mass production.
And yes this made everything they made to fight us in WWII a little better because Harley sold them this stuff.
So when you hear a Harley dude get all proud of his American made ride, tell that person you know where
they were built a long time ago and maybe but I hope not, this probably helped to kill some of his kin folk as well.
