Described as "designed from the ground up as the most innovative retro 250 custom full size production chopper ever created". While being learner-legal, this bike is as California-old-school as you'd hope for, emphasising freedom, self-expression, and passion. Interestingly, there are no Japanese components. The manufacturer took a philosophical design decision that means if you want a break from the Japanese bikes you've found your bike. The layout is clean, with plenty of scope for tinkering on it yourself.
Hunter provides a range of custom options, such as dual seats (extra footpegs and sissy bar), padded solo seat, free flow exhaust system, and wicked flamed graphics. And many aftermarket Harley-Davidson accessories go right on the Spyder.
The manufacturer claims over 200 units sold in their 1st year since June 2008, with 23+ dealers around Australia and shippig to USA and Europe. MSRP starts at around AU$6.5k plus ORC.
Some previous USA models were air-cooled, but all new models are liquid-cooled these days.
