Nice bike.....

From around 1975 to 1980 or so my main ride was a '49 Panhead chopper (hardtail)...

Still have the bike, but it's mainly used for 'show' these days....

If you want to experience the true meaning of 'rough riding' put a few thousand miles on one of those @#$(&(*#@ Panheads, especially a hardtail. No front brake, amazing that I survived those days. LoL

Really nice lines on the bike... can't say I like the exhaust though...

Some type of chrome exhaust and it really would be kick'n...
