By way of a setup, the fine machine you see here has been designed, built and assembled by one of the nicest, most generous, patient and talented guys you are likely to meet in the VTwin industry and someone I am proud to consider a friend – James Simonelli. Chances are if you’ve recently stopped by the BAKER Display at Daytona, Sturgis or points in between, you’ve met James. Not wanting to get between the story and you, we asked James in his own words to clue us in regarding this new bike he’s taken the wrapper off of.

You gotta dig this bike. Lines of a early super glide mated to the space shuttles technology. From the Grade 8 fastners,trick aluminum brackets,spacers and mounts everywhere,hidden electronics,idler on drivetrain,mega adjustable shocks,GMA fork brace,LARGE S&S ENGINE,BAKER DRIVETRAIN. Mopar hemi orange n black paint. Shows mega amounts of heart,soul,inovoation,enginering,time,talent, and money. All combined by one multi talented regular guy. James,your hard work over the winter really shows. I Hope to see HEMI 145 in person before you dream up more upgrades,way cool the way it is. Congradulations on the cover ink man you deserve it.
