    They asked the wrong party to assess it . They should have consulted with Vintage Husky. It could have been restored for perhaps less than half of the $8500 plus of what they spent and had something worth so much more than what they turned it into

    What a waste.. Another 400 bites the dust. I sure there is a BIG demand for a two stoke chopper. They should of done that to the Rokon.

    BATF does not regulate flame throwers, they are not firearms. Some states they are legal, others no.

    Corey "Big Hoss" Harrison has got his head up his butt! This one was worse than the "Hot Air Ballon" debackle. Casey Folks should drive down the road and kick the Dumbass right between the eyes. First off, he should have taken the ride to Rick Dale for an assesment, who would have done it right. Instead, he takes it to the "Duke", whom makes "Custom rides and Bad Ass Choppers!" Whatever (He is talented with hot rods and is very expensive with steet scoots, from what I've seen) A Bobber? Vegas is like 120 degrees down on the strip, with stop and stop and maybe go traffic. A high performance 2 stroke like that will broil it's self to death with no air across the fins! I wonder how long that "High dollar Chopper" ran before the seizure occurd? And what kind of electrical system did the duke install? The stock mag lighting coil sure would be tough to get lights brighter than a flashlight for a street legal bike. I work at "Runamuck motor shop" an independant Harley and Indian shop in Bountiful, Utah. Randy Harris has been working on "American Only" bikes for over 30 years. (He lets me work on my Swedish and Austrain machines as well as My Utah built ATK. but no rice burners) He does complete engine work (balances every engine he rebuilds, for no additional charge. says it has to be perfect) He does custom machine shop work, restorations and general repair and installation of hop up parts and chrome crap. I've seen alot of custom bikes roll through the doors over the 20 plus years that I've been there, But never once have I seen a 2 stroke chopper! Cool? Sure it's one of a kind, but mostly it's just STUPID!!!

    a flame thrower is a distructive divice...just look at the list....federal control...not state...
    im a lic, gunsmith by trade...just look at the BATFE website...youll find that inforamation...
    any WW2 made distructive divice is a C&R but still falls under the law of taxed divice...silincers, full auto, short shotguns, center fire weapons over 50 cal. ect...all fall under this law.

    United States, a destructive device is a firearm or explosive device regulated by the National Firearms Act of 1934.
    Examples of destructive devices are grenades and firearms with a bore over one half of an inch, including some semi-automatic shotguns. While current federal laws allow destructive devices, some states have banned them from transfer to civilians. In states where banned, only law enforcement officers and military personnel are allowed to possess them.
    All National Firearms Act firearms including destructive devices, must be registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, who then closely monitor use, transport, and storage of the items.
    The definition of a "destructive device" is found in 26 U.S.C. § 5845(f). The definition reads as follows:

    (1) any explosive, incendiary, or poison gas, (A) bomb, (B) grenade, (C) rocket having a propellant charge of more than 4 ounces, (D) missile having an explosive charge of more than 1/4 ounce, (E) mine or (F) similar device.

    (2) Any weapon by whatever name known which will, or which may be readily converted to, expel a projectile by the action of an explosive or other propellant, the barrel or barrels of which have a bore of more than one-half inch in diameter, except a shotgun or shotgun shell which the Secretary finds is generally recognized as particularly suitable for sporting purposes; and

    (3) Any combination of parts either designed or intended for use in converting any device into a destructive device as defined in subparagraphs (1) and (2) and from which a destructive device may be readily assembled.

    The term destructive device shall not include any device which is neither designed nor redesigned for use as a weapon; any device, although originally designed for use as a weapon, which is redesigned for use as a signaling, pyrotechnic, line throwing, safety or similar device; surplus ordnance sold, loaned or given by the Secretary of the Army, pursuant to the provisions of section 4684(2), 4685, or 4686 of Title 10 of the United States Code; or any other device the Secretary finds is not likely to be used as a weapon, or is an antique or is a rifle which the owner intends to use solely for sporting purposes.[1]
