For Those Who Like Them Long

I was going through some old pics and found this
It was a pan head goose that belonged to my roommate, was built in 1972
couldn't make a u-turn in a standard intersection, but it road like an arrow in a strait line
I'm not positive but I think it was only the second one built at that time in L.A.
Hope you enjoy, Steve

SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

Best, Bob Davidson

SELF INTRODUCTION: Hello fellow chopper fanatics. I have wanted to build a harley for quite some time now. I am pretty handy but know nothing about harley builds or metal fabrication. I have to build my own due to lack of funds. I know I will learn a lot from this site. I am looking to get a sportster and convert to a rigid bobber. So that's my goal. Pleasure to meet you all!
