I got to ride this knucklehead back in 1977 when the previous owner crashed and got arrested for trying to elude a police officer! :-)



That's all for this year folks... This riding season was a short one, less then 6-wks to do my annual 10,000+ miles stateside. Worth mentioning was a 15-day trip from Oregon to Delaware and back where i logged over 7,400 miles (this included a Iron Butt from North Dakota to Yakama Washington... 1,038 miles in 16hrs.)
