| The bike went through many iterations in the late 60's/early 70's, but this was my favorite. Painted metallic gray with silver flames, and a front end clearly influenced by Easy Rider. I still think it was a beautiful blend of colors, textures and lines. |

| 1971 - I don't know what looked more outrageous, me or the bike (which I incidentally rode on the day of my wedding). The radical 36" over-stock springer fork was made from old Ford radius rods. |

Stu's Motorcycles What I was riding, 1969-1971
| In 1969 I got my first Harley - a 1958 Panhead engine in a 1951 wishbone frame. Lots of chrome, high performance engine. Spectacular burnouts! |
