Most desirable Harley Davidson?

[nudemetalz]

Okay..before I get flamed with "WTF is this sort of question...??",..there is a method to my madness.

I'm going to do a CNC machined clock from my PC with a CAD programme of a H-D Cruiser to be raffled out as a fund-raiser for my fellow Cantabrians. Probably donate it to the Brotherhood guys to handle.

Started doing a Fat-Boy then asked myself, "is this the best Harley to be doing?"
I'm not right up with Harleys as such and thought there would be others who could help me here.

(showing a pic of an 1198 here that I've done previously for reference, may even get another machined to be raffled off also).

Any opinions appreciated..Scumdog, Crasher..??

This one...



Ok it's not a cruiser, but that wasn't stated in the title.

Did consider the XR....hmmm, ta OAB

What kinda cost is usually associated with that kinda work?

A Street Triple clock for the garage could be in order if the proceeds are heading for Chch.

An early Dyna-glide, like a 1971 FX Superglide (aka 'disc-glide') would be my choice, has the red/white/blue paint and duck-tail rear fender.

(Bbut I'm biased!)

Usually sell them around $300-350 mark. They're anodised and black line infilled.

Thanks Scumdog..def worthy of consideration.

Just needs some man pipes.

Looks like I may be doing more than one !!

Is that the boat-tail one you meant before, Scummy?

Yup - I editted my post after you looked at it I guess!

Edit: Not heard them called that before though.

Spot on!
And my bad for not knowing about the 'boat-tail' bit.

Dang, this is going to be a hard decision..and no-one has mentioned the Fatboy yet..lol

[White trash]

Fatboy's probably the most recognisable Harley, I'd put the most desirable as one of the XR (real XR, not the modern ones) Flat tracker.

You mean one of these?



The more I look at it the more I like it.
