    Two Harleys - a 1963 Duoglide ( Panhead ) that i've owned for nearly 20 years and a 1998 Sportster 1200cc that i bought last July cause the Pan was playing up and the wife was fed up of me sulking without a bike that worked.

    Re: Bikes

    OK guys, like someone else said right at the beginning of this very long thread “bikes aren’t really my thing”. However, I have owned and ridden the following:

    • NSU Quickley moped when I was a kid (remember them? – death traps)
    • BSA 250cc Tiger Cub (used to get through more oil than petrol – another death trap).
    Basically I've been in 4 wheels since I was 17 - far better for attracting members of the opposite sex - and having it!!Anyway I digress. Whilst on a holiday in Canada last year my son & I spotted a chopper in Unionville (nr Markham) that looked remarkably like the the Indian Larry tribute bike that we had seen built one of the Discovery Channel programmes. The attached pictures are of the bike as we saw it and one of a TV screen shot of the real thing. On the day the some of the bye standers claimed it wasn’t the “real McCoy”. We begged to differ and a heated argument took place. What to you guys reckon? No doubt the USA/Canadian members will have a better view on this one. Appologies for the porr quality mobile phone photos.

    If in doubt read the instructions. If still in doubt follow them.
