The change came in mid 1945, exactly I do not know. 45U21xx (original bike) is electric welded at the sidecar loops. It was built mid to late April 1945. The electric welded version of the 1941-very early 1946 frame was last used on a few weeks of the early production of 1946 models up to the factory strike in early September 1945. The frame was changed to the 30° "bull neck" in November 1945 just a few days after the end of the strike.Bruce Palmer III
