Hi Steve, I have some pics of the big KB8 but I didn't want to start taking pictures in his shop/museum :)
I really wanted to but some guys are funny about that. Took a bit of talking to even get him to show me the Henderson! I mean this things worth $100k....it's unbelievable if you know vintage bikes. He had the original sidecar as well but it wasn't attached. Realy something I tellz ya.
Real nice old guy & reasonable prices. The big KB8....$8k & he has a step deck trailer for it that'll easily haul 2 power wagons. He hauls 30k lbs worth of tractors with it. No CDL required. He wasn't sure & he has one but as far as I can tell...you wouldn't need one with his setup. It's got hydraulic brakes front & rear & weighs 10k lbs. The trailer is a 4 axle step deck with electric brakes...he wants $5k for the trailer.
Not sure why you'd need a CDL unless you were hauling commercially with it?
It would look good Omaha orange with my logos!
