Default Knuckle Heads at York PA Museum/Plant

I spend some time in the H-D factory in 1985 & 1986 and I have a couple of Knuckle Head photos to share. I took these in the Rodney C. Gott Museum which used to be be located in front of the factory in York PA. Gott was the AMF Chairman. Take a look at the last photo, I must have wandered around in there for a hour looking at most every Harley ever built.

Would have loved to have brought this one home.

In the museum lobby were these two beauties.

They actually let me wander around in this old storage building which looked to me to contain one of most every model motorcycle they ever built.
