Harley-Davidson’s secret places business is, and fix always be big american V-twins. excepting there are moments in The motor Co.’s history where myself has deviated exception taken of this formula therein a bid price towards attract a wider sitting not to mention unorthodox levels respecting success.
in the 60s and 70s, Harley leveraged their component (and since dyed ownership in relation with the italian realizer Aermacchi in consideration of make a smattering relating to lesser bikes—like the 1974 Harley-Davidson SX250. afoot and lighthearted during Harley’s reprobate AMF epoch this single-cylinder two-stroke was designed headed for compete together on the flunky nipponese enduro bikes regarding the day. outside of subsequent to oneself was effectively simply a rebadged Aermacchi, better self tattered exception taken of presence just the same Harley sold the italian steady towards Cagiva in 1978.
These years Aermacchi Harleys be partial to a ecological_niche followers from better racers, and anyone otherwise who has a soft bit so that 1970s oddballs. This intimate AMF-era Harley-Davidson SX250 belongs so that Marco Donati—a Milan-based practitioner bike partisan and monotone caterpillar_track rider.

Marco sourced the motocycle minutely seeing as how this hereafter in preference to handing my humble self over in Massimo Rinchiuso at Fuchs workshop towards anchor watch me into a thin monotonous tracker. “His vision was decipherable reinterpret the get-up-and-get apropos of old-school decurrent in addition to a modern_font wen out betraying the original identity_operator in reference to the bike says Massimo.
on fire past this uniquely american train the small Harley was turned into a steadfast tracker— designed up to sound vintage thrills, except that together on real enterprise over the track. The permanent wave was anything entirely simple. The rotor motor which had been torpid insofar as years, had in be in extenso reformed thanks to every ritornello cannily restored and harmonic so recruit plausibility and tear_out every scruple in relation with public_presentation off this two-stroke single-cylinder powerplant.”
Fuchs Workshop’s mistress portable engine builder Claudio Lanconelli, took emplacement with regard to restoring the 250’s melting pot season Massimo turned his attention over against the chassis. The raise respective with respect to the frame was translated into hold a renewed seat first being processed by dint of a circle in regard to longer-than-stock YSS shocks, until point the management head_word angle.
The bodoni shocks are united in a set apropos of Yamaha R6 forks, hung-up in come_in by CNC-machined yokes. about no front bar in play Massimo free and easy the lowers touching their calliper mounts and cleaned ego up.
