Title: Bob Haro's New Personal Ride!
Post by: Dansharos on March 26, 2008, 07:30 PM
OK, This is the third and final time I will be building this bike!  Last year before Rockford Bob asked me if I would build him a replica of the bike he had back in the day and I said (with a big grin on my face) oh yea!  So here it is; Bob Haro's new Ride!  Enjoy because I know he will!

The Rockford collectors gathering is next weekend isn't it so it's about time this thread was resurrected :)  Will the legend that is Bob Haro, be there to pick his bike up?  Inquiring minds need to know...

Post by: ORANGEZIPPY on June 07, 2008, 11:58 PM
thats a shame, would have made a few great pictures,  gonna try and get my one all put together for mk.

also be nice to see pics of Harry Leary on a H.R Turbo and maybe own one.

quite surprised some of these guys have taken this long to get bikes back they created and bare their name.

I guess Bob Haro will be very proud when your one gets delivered  :4_17_5: :4_17_5:

thx for sharing the photos
