So here's a few pics of the panhead. It was basically built from a
stock bike - matching cases, proper trans, original swingarm frame
with a pan hardtail welded on, stock '61 rear brake, stock '61 dual
point ignition, oil tank, stock controls chromed, etc. The chopper
parts on it are all mid 70s aftermarket - bars, steel trees, spool,
seat, Branch/Mikuni carb conversion. I replaced all the soft parts,
brakes, and some gaskets. Featured in Dice issue #26. It's a good
runner and has been ridden out to Las Vegas, CA and Mexico. No
breakdowns to speak of. It sat in a garage from '82 to '08. Attached are some pics of when it was found and a few of the original owner and his wife.
If anyone is interested in it you can email directly at ngoerdt@gmail.com. He was ridin this sweet machine last night I wish she was mine a true piece of chopper history still alive and rollin in it's original condition.
