Default 1947 Knucklehead...

Hello, I'm considering buying this 1947 Knucklehead. Can anyone tell me a decent starting price on it? I attached a photo.

Thanks.

Hi. This photo is not of a knucklehead. Its a flat head engine. There is a huge difference in value and performance between this and a knuckle.

Every time I click on any picture links I get this-
wreakhavoc, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
  1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
  2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
What is going on? Why would I not be allowed to view attached pictures on threads?

You have to post 5+ times before you can view, edit photos.

Also, for my 2¢, if someone is trying to sell you a "knucklehead" that's just a 45 cu. in. flathead (which it is) I'd suggest you get a *knowledgeable* opinion (or two) before spending any money on this old motorcycle.

It might be a not-ckle, but it certainly ain't a Hardly ... my bicycle is called "The Hardly"
