The Hardknock
Story:
Introduced in 2006 as a
kit for bike builders, it
was an instant hit not
only with fabricators,
painters and customizers,
but with people who just
wanted to build their own
motorcycle. Through the
years the kit was refined,
the list of factory
options grew, and the
frame was enlarged and
improved to accept ever
larger engines. Although
it was a huge success, as
a kit bike, it was only
street legal in the few
states where builders were
allowed to assemble their
own motorcycle. As of this
year, the Hardknock street
legal motorcycle with both
DOT/EPA approval in the
United States and EC-Type
approval in all European
countries and Switzerland.

Many
of the
pictures you
see here and
on the
internet are
of the older,
smaller kit
version of the
Hardknock.
Although builders
loved it,
they wanted 3
main
improvements.
First, they
wanted a frame
that was
larger and
could accept a
250cc engine,
such as the
Virago v-twin
or the Rebel
parallel twin.
Second, they
wanted a bike
that came with
a title and
was 100%
street legal.
Lastly, they
wanted more
bolt-on
options
providing
customization
without
fabrication. We
listened to
our customers,
and the result
is the HK-III
Hardknock
with DOT/EPA
approval
in the United
States as well
as European
type-approval. What
still remains
for builders
are the
endless
customizing
possibilities,
from tanks,
handlebars,
wheels to
even
the engine
itself.
