Not so much as you think Howie.

Arlen Ness built a Sportster motor chopper damn near 40 years ago that this bike appears to have copied a lot from

History buddy,you need to study your history

Hell you're old enough, you've lived a bunch of it

Well, he's back for sure! And on a tear today too! :P

Never said it hasn't been tried before. It's a pretty clean version of it. I wonder how it rides. I think he's working with Accurate Engineering and plans to produce them. Not just a one-off wonder. ;)

I saw the Ness version either in his museum or at a show in the past.  If my memory is correct, he used leaf springs up front?? 

Anyway, lots of innovation in both versions!  Can't say I want one, but ya gotta admire the engineering that went into this one...

Call it research there Brian!
I sat on this bike yesterday at the Easyriders show.
It is a one off wonder. And I guess two could be built but why.
A very novel and interesting concept but Arlen did this many years back.
A leaf spring to control the front end of a bike, I'm sure that's going to catch on!
What are they going to come up with next? Hub steering maybe?

You could put a big wire basket between the front, I think, wheel and the handlebars, and it would make a great grocery delivery bike.  :huepfenlol2:
