49 Panhead by Hazardous Cycles

I got this bike from Mississippi as a basket case.

Took the frame and cut, raked the neck. Wanted to build an old school chopper. Its the original wish bone frame and original 49 motor, belly numbers match..

re-built the motor from crank up, mild cams, has 10:1 wisco pistons.heads have been gone thru as well

..powered by a joe hunt mag..the trans is a 53 and I put in Andrews gears close ratio

..went with a Bdl belt drive..did some fab work to mount the oil tank and rear fender,like the clean look on how it almost floats when ur looking at it from the side

..i love the sound of the old school bikes,just nothing better when they are rolling down the road to now where land…

WAYNE  CARPENTER’S Panhead by Miserable George

 

    I shot this one-of-a-kind Panhead chopper back in 1999 at beautiful Ballard Park in Melbourne, Fl.

It was built by Wayne Carpenter, of Southern V-Twin, in Melbourne, Fl. Sorry, but, I don’t have the specs, but as you can see, the paint, and all the work is absolutely flawless.

I have no idea where this machine is today, but, you can call Wayne, at Southern V-Twin…321-255-1600. He built an engine for me several years ago, and, it was perfect!!!

Harley-Davidson EL Knucklehead by Miserable George

     The owner of this pristine machine…Dennis…has since passed away, and to be honest…I have no idea where the bike is today, but I came across these photos in my archives, and simply had to share this fine machine with our OSB friends. As I remember, we shot the bike at Wickham Park, in Melbourne, Fl. I have heard that this model can bring as much as $175,000, depending on condition….complete and un-restored. This one, of course, was completely restored, to be ridden. I’m hoping our readers will enjoy the photos…

Cool Old Pan by ValGal “What year is this?”

ValGal saw this beautiful old pan in a parking lot recently and grabbed these shots.

For those of you (like me) who bitch about the studio shots and the factory customs, you are gonna love this one. They can have all the shiny crap that they want. This is my dream bike.

Anyway, enjoy and remember that no matter how much somebody rubs a shiny new bike, Ain’t no genie gonna pop out!
