Jaw dropping Harley

This is the work of Mullins Chain Drive. I finally saw some OK photos of this bike finished. Im not really a harley guy but when i saw him designing his own magnesium wheels, I started following this build. No crazy bling, just beautiful engineering everywhere. The best part is the two front heads. I bet it sounds wild.

ah ha! You were at the brooklyn invitational! (if you took those.) i was there. That bike was sick. Also did you see the FXR that Jeff Wright built from Chvrch of Choppers?

Nobody built a kawi =/ and honestly there were not many in the crowd. Mine had some issues that weekend, so I did not ride in for the festival.

I follow a few of those builders on social media, and Chvrch is actually going to be building a z900 chopper for his next big build.

I wish i could have been there, I just found those photos online. You never seem to see many Kawasaki's, even at vintage events.

It looks more rideable than either of those "good looking hogs." Its fully suspended, with 3 disc, and a raised transmission and pegs so it has a decent lean angle. He also reverse engineered the rear cylinder to use a front head. How often do you see that? Aesthetics aside you have to respect the craftsmanship and engineering skill that went into this.

Guess i dont see how swapping the head and cams round (dont most harleys use different cams front and rear, put a front cam in rear. Bam, swapped head?)

Other than that, yes a suspension swap, peanut style tank (it's a full gallon jesse) minus the easy seeming head swap standard harley fare.
