RE: old school panhead chopper
Looks a little like somebody wastched Easy Rider once too often, but who care's its a sweet looking ride.
Wouldn't mid having one like that for cruise nights, but I wouldn't want to go on anything like a long distance trip with it.
I'm a little too soft (old) for something that "hard" these days.

Brother of mine has a stock 57 Pan. I have the apes on my Heritage. Have been around the old school for a long time,and I know where, and when it all started. Great looking scooters and great Brothers form the past. Give them the credit, where its due......Ride Safe and Often......BearC.Paw.......
