Nothing sweeter than sitting back seeing a nice bike with a pan sitting right NEXT TO a twin cam bike, and making all the comparisons. But in the end, twin cam.

Best by far is the Shovel, followed by the Knuck, then Pan. Twinkie is nice but it's too perfect looking.

Knucklehead, hands down! it is a work of art. The Pan and Shovel are up there too. Not to take away from the EVO and TC, they are fine machines and look good on their own but the Knuclehead looks like a barn motor. its gritty and raw and pure American imagination. The last 20 years yield good motors and bikes but they are too polished, too refined.

I like them all, but the old Shovel's & Pan's are the coolest looking in my book. Then the TC as long as it's the Black ones and not the Silver.

Maybe a picture of each may get a more accurate poll... The Twin Cam is more "Out There"

Just a thought...

Panhead with the Knuckle being a close second.

Twinkie bottom end and jugs with knucklehead heads. Besides, just saying "knucklehead" is cool
