Can someone identify this bike? 2 Years ago  
This past Sunday a couple of buddies and I rode out to San Juan Capistrano for breakfast at the Denny's on Ortega Hwy off the 5. After we finished eating we decide to take Ortega Hwy to the 15 freeway, while tuning down the road we came upon (2) unusual looking bikes(?), that had all of us stomped. I must say those guys were moving through those curves, so I'm curious.

Back in the '70's there was a company that sold a kit that used a donor Sportster that looked like that. The rider sat almost directly behind the rear jug.

It is a limited product bike built in California. Saw it on speed channel about two years ago. Show was two wheel tuesday block. They build the seat low for handling and also for low center of gravity which are one in the same. I look for a link.

That's Dan Gurney or one of his crew, they are on Ortega almost every Sunday riding their Alligators.
