In 1966 when H-D changed from a Panhead to a Shovelhead they used left over cases (bottom) from the Panheads.



now 1st is there a number painted on that door?
also did they use Knucklehead cases back in 47?
knuckle bottom panheads??????

Here is my Co- Knuck. I originally built this back in 1986. there have been a lot of copies since then. No! they didn't use Knuckle cases for Pans. Pans used Japanese engineering and castings! A Knucklehead was the last American Motorcycle made by Harley-Davidson!

Super 'E' has a 1-7/8" (47.6mm) throat at the butterfly and a 1-9/16" (39.6mm) venturi

Actually it was a 12 pack and $40.00 because I got two sets of pipes. Had them made in Wisconsin Rapids.

lol. she was starting to get like that. But we needed the money, and that was the easiest thing to get rid of. I love it tho, even tho its kinda of a bitch at time with the traffic here. The other drivers on the road are totally oblivious to you. In South florida they really are a death trap. Hopefully i can get one again when we move north a bit.  grin

Ive also been hit from behind a few times.
 Last fall ridin the e-way some yuppie prick was doin a deal in his car/office , I was in the passin lane, he slowly moved over  til i was on the left side of the rumble strips and I threw my smoke at his window before hittin the pipes , I looked right at him , he was leanin up against his window w/ the celly in his left hand, he saw me and I swear he S#!t his pants  2funny he dropped the phone and almost ran off the other side of the road  2funny

 You know, getting hit in the ass end on two wheels is the most rare
