An Extraordinary Custom by Doctor Robert Harms is For Sale

Not long ago, I heard that Doctor Robert Harms had passed. Now, I see one of his extraordinary builds, the Indian/Kawasaki is looking for a new home and I truly hope it finds a good one with someone who can appreciate what they’re looking at. We wrote about it some years ago and Robert Harms described it in detail. Some might look at a build like this and think it’s a crazy mashup that makes no sense, but this is a build from a master builder who thought everything through and made sure everything worked exactly as it was supposed to.

From every angle, the work is amazing

As I write, it’s still for sale, but not for long. If you’re a very special kind of person who knows what makes a bike like this as extraordinary as it is, you better hurry. It’s a no reserve auction, it’s going to sell and he’s no longer here to build another.

Auction has ended

    Sorry to hear that Dr Harms is no longer with us.

    He sure left behind some creative work that should be ridden, seen, and remembered for a long time.
