1/12,Harley - Davidson,Black Sppecial / Fat Boy,

[Guest]

Looking good. This kit here is a Fat Boy which has an Evolution engine .
The manufacturer took their Shovelhead engine and stuck on Evo rocker boxes ( at the top of the engine) , rather than re-tool for an complete new engine. Like Revell did , taking the 1/9 Cop bike Shovelhead engine and plopping Knucklehead rocker boxes on top for the L.A.Street Chopper kit.
The triumph could be made from the old Revell kit 1/9 scale. Its a single carb Tiger. The frame looks Triumph to me , but pic is too far away and the saddlebags cover most of it. Don't like the Nazi tank art , only other Triumph kit is a 1/24 from waay back.
