Default WOW!

I work for Echostar in the Denver area; I looked out the main entrance and couldn’t believe my eyes. There was a 1940’s knuckle head setting in front of the building. I went to take a look and the bike was from Texas it was packed to the hilt. The fellow riding it was touring the old bike. I waited to talk to him but never saw him. What a neat bike, I can’t imagine touring something that old. George

The old Knucks will take ya anywhere as long as you take it easy , pac tools and check for loose nuts and bolts along the way.
I met a guy in Eastern Montana at a campground in the Custer Nat.Forest a couple years back while on my way to Sturgis.
He was a fellow Washingtonian from Spokane and on his way to Sturgis as well.
1937 Knucklehead with a sidecar and his GermanShepheard along for the ride.

Where I work, Cary a friend of mine has a 1938 UL that is complete and runs for $10,000. I have wanted to go and strike up a deal with him but I don't have the cash. If anyone is serious about wanting to check it out I can get you in contact with him. We are located in Clarksville TN.
