Really cool looking custom bike. Doesn't weigh any more than most HD cruisers. I guess with all the heat and rigid frame, you wouldn't mind stopping every hour for fuel.
I agree, way cooler than a Boss Hog.

I don't know if I could wait for it to need fuel! But it would look good rolling downtown

I dont know if I'd buy anything from a guy calling himself
"Honest" Charley, Abe, Ed or anything else. Note the line which reads. "Sold as is no warrantee, expressed or written".
On the tech side couldnt find anything that mentioned how many speed gear box.

And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

That was a really popular conversion for 4 cylinder Indians and Hendersons after the supply of Plymouth 4's ran out.
Honest Charley's Speedshop was really big way back, as big as Speedomotive and J C Whitney. Most of their stuff was reasonably good for the price. One of their items I always wanted to get, but never got around to it was a jacket patch that said, "Lone Wolf No Club". The current incarnation is owned by a different person who bought the name. Dunno if he is as honest as Charley was, but they don't have that patch.
