I’f you check out Lauge Jensens website you’ll understand that, with the few resources this company had this is really a huge thing to accomplish. For Denmark this is special because we’ve never been really good at designing in this department, finally we’re going to see something else than our furniture from the 1950′s and 60′s.

And by the way; different buyers have already ordered over 1500 examples of this bike and the company started the 21th. of september 2009, i think that’s pretty decent.

I’m not into this genre of motocycles but this bike does appear well executed and of high quality. I had the pleasure of seeing a clean restored Nimbus recently. All kinds of interesting period technology and design detail. Lauge Jensen missed an “in your face” opportunity to develop a local icon into a bold new product that would stand aside from the dated and diluted American Chopper formula. I anxiously await what they do for their follow-up product.

Paul, my apologies for misreading the article, but it does read like a Nimbus revival.

Coho, my definition of a Harley clone: If its motor is a V-twin that will bolt right into a stock Harley frame with no modifications, then it’s a Harley clone.

Most danish design is very,very simple with the cleanest lines possible.
And very functional. Tthe Nimbus was more or less in this spirit, given it’s early 20th
century origins. The Lauge Jensen doesn’t look very “Danish” to me.
Maybe they should have begun with a Rotax mill instead of the S&S…
