Finally finished the little red Aermacchi Harley. thought I'd share a picture since it is such a beauty, just like the Mobies.

Thanks much for the kind words. When I first saw this bike, I wasn't impressed,but once completed, I've grown to really like all the features it has. The owner has another just like it, but wants to restore a larger Harley called a Hummer from way back in 1958. It has a measly 125cc engine in a heavy frame. Top speed...40mph. No wonder Honda killed it off.

Send 'er down to Louisville....and I'll shine 'er up for you! Ha! And, if you are looking for a good home for it, I could ask my customer if he would like to make you an offer. Just a thought.

If I get up in your neighborhood again for the Canadian Henley, I'd like to stop by and see your collection. How close are you to Saint Catherines/Niagara on the Lake?

We are more then just a short ride from Niagara on the Lake area. Gee that is beautiful countryside out there with all the vineyards and rolling landscape - would be nice to drive a Motobecane through that area with a big wicker basket strapped to the handlebars and a long bread sticking out beside a bottle of wine, some stinky cheese and some fattening pate de foie gras :D

The HD is not mine but someone in the vintage bike club but if your customer is really after it then I can send you the info to you on a PM.

I'll send him this picture. If he's interested, maybe we can get more pics to him?
