my first HD
1948 Panhead rigid chopper. Finished and sold in 1969, the year the movie "Easy Rider" came out. The pipes, seat and sissybar came from AEE Choppers in LA. We had the solid fork tubes made at D&V Machine Shop in Stockton,CA. The rigid frame/rigid fork bike was completely unsprung and a real butt buster to ride but we didn't care. I had a Hap Jones peanut tank welded to the frame and molded the whole thing smooth with about a gallon of bondo. Scanned from a 1969 Kodak print.
