Thanks Kerry10456 ,I love the "foundlings" myself. Thanks for the link. The pan was something I regret no longer owning. Oh well it happens.Still keep the wind in my hair.
Hello JackArt,...you have an amazing collection!,....there's nothing better than surrounding oneself in yesterdays treasures,....If you have any Duplicates of your Motorcycle Magazines I am interested in trading,..I have a few duplicats from 1911 Motorcyclist Magazines,....thanks Cycles-Past
Hi jackart, LOVE the Panhead, but sorry HATE!!! the CB750.....surely you'll forgive me....THAT bike (not your particular bike..lol) single-handedly killed the British motorcyle industry DEAD! I suppose that shows how good'a bike it was (or perhaps it just shows the no-good, antique, out-of-date, pieces of c*!p being recycled year after year by the likes of Norton, Triumph and BSA...the latter were nearly dead anyway!). Anyway...love your photo's, they're just great! Cheers for posting! (Even the CB!) P.S Here's a link to my Norton if you want to leave a reciprocal comment:

(depite my moan... the Norton Commando DID win the title "MCN Superbike of the Year" five,... FIVE... years in a row......then the CB750 came along...end of story!!!!)
