    Original paint 1954 custom at Dixon. This bike was used for several years in the opening credits of "Saturday Night Live".

            you sell it one part at a time on ebay. and you never sell 2 parts to the same buyer. that way you insure that you are not forced to see it again.

                Rob, I would be the last guy to take that bike apart. You do have a good point however....

                Robbie... it's a different kind of woozy that I was feeling. It's the sort that you get sitting in the back seat when you're a kid.... "Dad!!! Stop the car!!!!"

                  Under all the chrome and bolton goodies added to it is a perfectly stock, original paint 1954. The only original thing missing is the 50th Anniversary emblem. I am sure some rubbing compound could remove the designs painted on it. It only has 12675 original miles on the clock.

                    Great meet other than the intense heat. 90's on Friday, 104 on Saturday. It would be nice if this meet could move one month earlier! It is HOT everytime I go (about every three years). Maybe coincidence. Saturday was dead because of the weather. I shoulda packed Friday night and just enjoyed the display motorcycles on Saturday because all the shopping was done.

                      Sure we'll move it back a month then you can bring your rain coat. You forgot to mention the nice breeze that comes in off the Straits. It was a little down on Sat. because of temp. but THAT doesn't happen every year. We plan everything for the meet but the weather. We found out it'll do what it wants to. Luck of the draw. Hope everyone still had a good time and we'll see you next year. Fort Sutter Chapter

                        I like the Dixon Meet and the guys in the Fort Sutter Chapter so much that I am moving to their area. ;-)
