I ran across this fine scooter and I had to do a double take. On closer inspection it was an S$S motor (damn they make some fine looking works) sitting in an old 50s straightleg. Not the real thing, but certainly a nice daily ride says I.
cheers.
I agree. A pogo and leather bags if any at all. Clean!
In the face of the real thing it might feel a bit strange, but more than likely the guy with the true '47 is too busy to notice 'cause his head is buried deep doing some wrenching. There is that fine line of going too far to mimic the past machines. I have to admit I was sickened when the Heritage came out. But that was back when I thought I could wrench anything. Now, I just want a reliable scoot. But I digress…
Cheers!
today you would be hard pressed to pull in some place and any one would know if it were a real one or not - reason for the pogo / seat and leather bags - in black
i own a 41 knuck - a 48 Indian chief - a 1926 JD just sold a 42 WLD last week - 1/2 the people i meet want to know if thats a new bike and what model is it
make it yours and enjoy it to the fullest F the ones who might not like it - show me yours i would say

Agreed....Very few people (Mostly Old Timers) recognize what the Knucklhead is. Even though mine is no where near original the motor
and frame are close. I just love to ride it and look at people watching when
I kick it to start it up.
