No one else will have this bike! Ah! Maybe Brad Pitt might—but when will you next be bumping into him? Buyer Be Warned: This is the hottest Harley on the road! The gurus of the Hog world have all contributed to the customization of this "Street Tracker" style bike, inspired by the 1970's Evelyn Knievel XR750. A&A Racing outfitted the sleek front wheel; Custom Chrome made her shine; Fox Racing will set up the new owner with a Shift jacket, gloves and riding shoes.
