I'm surprised it didn't sell

This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available.

If you read down, a 'consortium' of people was going over to look at it.

Even at that asking price, there is money to be made if the thing is provenance as well as it is purported to be. Sad, but true. Thing should be in a museum... or maybe that's where it will end up.

Cheers,

By reading that it looks as though he doesn't want H-D to get it.

I would bet that the "Bill" in the questions is Rodencal from the HD museum.

If it's the real deal that's pretty amazing. Now if the original patent can be found, where the hell did that '04 prototype go?
