FM has these one tenth scale bikes down cold! I’m continually amazed with each one I see. They are truly scaled masterpieces of Harley-Davidson craftsmanship. My latest review piece is scaled perfection in opalescent pearl and jet black. Drippin’ in tons-o-chrome with wide gangsta white tires, chrome wire wheels and twin shotgun pipes, the look is super bad and big daddy cool at the same time.
Franklin nailed the look of the big Twin Cam88B motor dressed in wrinkle black, chrome and detailed in every way. Plug wiring, fuel lines and realistic linkage all come to the line for immediate duty. The front and rear suspension is operational, the pullback riser and handlebar assembly steers the front wheel, the kickstand works and the gearshift and foot brake pedal are functional. The photo-etched wheel wires and brake rotors are exceptional, as are the brake lines and flexible drive belt. The textures are all authentic, from the rubber tire tread pattern to the feel of the saddle and smooth paint finish.
FM does a remarkable job in replicating these 1:10th bikes. They pick great examples to replicate and their color choices are impeccable. Keep ‘em coming boys!
