Default Classic Motorcycle - Purchase
I may be in the market for a classic unmolested knucklehead or panhead. I thought Hemming Motor News used to list bikes. Does anyone know of good places to look for bikes for sale? Thanks in advance.

You can look in eBay. Might give you an idea on pricing and availability.

Ebay has few nice examples from time to time. Just be careful and read your "Palmer bible".
I bought mine from Dale (wheelsthroughtime) museum.
Craiglist always has heaps...

I've never heard of the "Palmer Bible" what exactly is it?
