Old School Panhead Harley

One of my Dads bikes... Photo from about 1965 or so.

 

This chopper had a small 'cube' passenger seat on the rear fender that was little more than a vinyl covered block of foam about the size of a brick. I burned my leg on that exhaust pipe if I didnt keep my knee out in traffic! At least I could lean back on the 'sissy bar' (I was about 6 or 7 at the time).

 

He had a battery operated string of lights he wrapped around the sissybar with some garland for his 'built in Christmas tree' during the Holidays.
