O.K got the mosh yesterday. Been up assembling it. First off its a sound build and very smooth,I did not need to tweak anything for fluid movement. The hydro frame is sweet! The welds are very nice. Battery is well made and fits nicely as the contacts are protected. The only flaw I can find is a few burnished marks on the powder coat(believe its from shipping movement) not a deal breaker as I plan to use this baby.Overall thee nicest bike I ever assembled out of a box.Yes I have adult kids now and built many higher end makes when they were kids.Its comes out of Taiwan not China hence the better build quality. Some say "that ain't no harley its foreign. " Kawasaki is Harleys parent company now.Harley davidson has been using foreign parts on there skoots since the 70's that I am aware.keep that Harley conection guys you gotta killer machine that reflects modern times. I am sure that H-D had these materials available at the time the O.G. 1was built it would have been this machine.Nice job guys and gals😎😎😎,P.S all my bikes have been stabled inside the house... Hay Almost forgot,the tools provided were the only tools I needed to perform the task of building it. Not only tools but nice ones,I am keeping...

A update on the machine. Smooth operator it is! Its stealth black powder coat accented with the blue checkers is sweet! I added a H2 Selle perch,redshift seatpost,Sella Italia ergo grips leather,Shimano 500 plaform pedals and the chrome H-D badge. She's sweet and I love her😎😎😎

Yes Dave it's true, I believe 2014 was the year. Subsequently Harley's adapted many Vulcan( kawasaki V twin) bike processes to the betterment of Harley Davidson. Kawasaki makes a fine cruiser and so does Harley. I can attest since Kawasaki bought Harley their build quality has improved vastly😎😎😎

Yes your welcome Dave.Seems in todays buissness climate,large mergers and acquired corps. is the status quo. Kawasaki also makes fuselage hulls for Boeing jets,believe its the big luxury 700 series.

Kawasaki does not own Harley-Davidson. It was an April Fools day joke a few years ago.
