the only reason im selling is the fact that i just picked up a 1955 panhead and im going to use the cash from this to build it the way i want this winter…
the bike runs fine and rides great. its currently still on the road but dont expect to ride it without leaving cash in my hand.
yeah you run into hiccups with a bike that is older than most of your parents but all in all this bike is fairly reliable. most of the issues i sorted out with it were non motor issues aside from recently re-tuning the carb and now starts like a dream.
