When I was in my teen, I used to ogle American custom Paughco bobber motorcycles on the back of DC Comics because I thought they look fabulous, timeless and classic but knowing my humble background, I knew it was impossible to own one. Years went by, commitments overtook reality but dreams always remained. After I pensioned in 2015, I felt as if I struck gold because since 2013, JPJ, the Road Transport Authority actually approved a CKD motorcycle that looked like one. With my Golden Handshake fund, I immediately bought a MOMOS/Regal Raptor Bobber 350. Now from a reliable source, I am told the original design concept for the Regal Raptor Bobber was based on the Paughco frame. What a coincidence! I got my dream after all....a Malaysian CKD version for that matter.
