Oh and to help you understand the difference between replica and fake:

Many people — and many dictionaries — still regard replica in the same way as the entry in the 1965 edition of Fowler’s Modern English Usage. That says firmly that a replica is properly an exact copy of a work of art made by the original artist, and adds: “It is this proper sense that alone makes the foreign word replica worth maintaining in English by the side of the abundant English words for copies or duplicates”.

Do you have an aluminum body and round tube frame and two 6 volt batteries in series behind the seats?
I do, but it is still a fake; I got no problem with that
