Well, I bit the bullet and bought one. There is so little information on what a specific product is and its size, etc, that I sincerely hope that if they look similar they are in fact about the same in size (I spent some time comparing between products and at least one version -- though not the one I bought -- was the correct 16 inches in length), and that this is indeed to scale. From the seller's photos, the box is 20 inches long, the Harley is black with silver chrome, it doesn't have the extra lights under the brakes (which means I wouldn't have had to remove them to achieve movie accuracy), but the handle bars are black (which I might have to repaint in silver chrome).
Great you bought one!
Years ago i was looking for it, i got really confused as i wasn't aware there were 1/6 scale and 1/4 scale versions and most sellers didn't put any measurements in their descriptions so my sole basis for scale was the size of the remote control shown beside it.
Didn't understand how New Bright could be not-so-bright for not putting the proper scale labels on the boxes, i mean they work with SCALED RC vehicles!
For reference, i measured my box, its 20" long, 8-3/4" wide and 12-1/4" high.
Mine had black handlebars and side mirrors too so yes, spray-painted them in silver chrome, makes a lot of difference.
I am only seeing now on ebay the version you mentioned that have chrome handlebars with the extra lights.
