      I mean you'll keep acting like y'all have destroyed a Harley-Davidson when in all honesty that's not a Harley it's an AMF that's what happens when Harley-Davidson goes bankrupt and sells out their company for I think it was a five or eight year stint there was nothing a Harley Davidson on that bike but the name everything else is an overseas part that does not correlate with Harley in any way shape or form

    One tip from people building scale models is putting down a splotch or two of hairspray before painting. That way, it'll peel right off and look properly weathered.

    • @Tarry_Plaguer
      @Tarry_Plaguer Год назад +9

      Also Vaseline. I know when they try to make a WWII warplane look like the pilots have been walking on the wing to enter the cockpit they place vaseline over the primer coat and then paint. The paint comes off those spots and shows just the primer. Brilliant. Sometimes I have seen salt being used to cause interesting weathered effects. Lots of tricks to try.

  • @mozer30
    @mozer30 Год назад +15

    I think it would benefit from a slightly larger rear sprocket on the back, or drop a tooth on the front to compensate for the larger rear wheel diameter on the Harley.
    Yes I know it’s a 2 stroke, but it would help it pull through lower rpm into the powerband. At the moment it just bogs too much as the gearing is too tall, and (no offence) it’s carrying a larger passenger 😂
    Jetting will also be an issue as you’ve changed the filter style. 2 stroke dirt bikes are highly susceptible to even small modifications, atmospheric and altitude changes, so you have to jet/tune to suit.

    • @alternator7893

    This is such a great project. Italian bikes are something special, even if they do have a HD badge on them! Instead of messing with the stock brakes, see if you can swap wheels with something more common and with better brakes. Should be easy enough to make something fit.
