Update 1.2.2019: This bike has SOLD! Looking at strange beasts like the 2019 Harley-Davidson FXDR, you’d be forgiven for forgetting that Harley ever had anything to do with road racing.

The issue with a lot of the little two-stroke terrors that we feature is that they’re rare and often in museum-quality condition; original down to the pre-mix molecules.
