1930 Henderson Streamliner Motorcycle

This has to be the COOLest motorcycle I've ever seen. I found the photos on the web while doing research this weekend. 1930 Henderson Streamliner Motorcycle. I'd love to see this made into a model.

Beautiful machine. A work of rolling art! First time i saw this i swore i'd build something similar for myself. Years later, i'm still no nearer to getting started.
Customer's bikes, family commitments and a severe lack of time, and funds, seem to get in the way.
I, for one, would love to see this created in paper. Any brave souls?

If I remember correctly the guy designed and built the bike as a one of a kind. I love pulp novels and Doc Savage or a 1930s Batman would look great riding one of these.

The 1930s was a golden age of classy and elegant cars, but I had no idea that any motorcycles were part of this tradition. If you had a real one today, it probably would be too valuable for you to actually ride. But I would have a terriffic time riding a modern replica. And a paper model would be wonderful, too.

That is a cool looking ride. Here is some more information on it:

About half way down the page is a photo of the rear end of the machine.
