Looks like some reasonably fine detail there, but it also looks like there's a lot of flash, casting imperfections, and still visible printing layers.
The headlight also looks like it was modeled in low resolution.

Quality-wise, I've seen much better plastic models; ie; Great Wall BMW R75, and Mini Art Harley Davidson.

Is this one in 1/56.8 scale like the rest of their under-sized offerings, too? Can we see it next to a 1/35 figure?

I agree with you Leo, Mini art and Great Wall and master box I've built all three models have much better quality plastic than this resin model hopefully it's a bad picture!

Based on photos of their other products. I wouldn't hope for too much.

Wonder if Master Box zombie hunter (Mila Jovovitch) will sit on it. She doesn't seem to want to sit on any other bike, without lots of modification.

I'm sure Harley will be all over this soon enough , they are well known for crushing trademark infringement.
Got enough $$$ to go up against Harley - Davidson ?
I think not.

Good point, as my guess this company probably couldn't afford the licensing fees H-D would demand.

Looks a bit like a H-D V-Rod. Not sure if that would be popular in this scale but it's... interesting...

I just like the bike and the possibilities it offers to those of us who like detailed dios.
