  • Help Identify Rear crashbars.

    I have these more square-styled crashbars on my 52 Panhead. I recently picked up some correct ones. Can anyone tell me what these came on? Thanks IMG_2487.jpgIMG_2488.jpg

    There are two versions of those, chrome or black. they were designed for police radio use, but gained favor with folks who didn't like their saddlebags crushed. The chrome ones were a re-release in '57 for the new "BIG Bertha" bags in that year.
    They are not incorrect as rear crashbars were not part of the package in '52 and they were available (in black) over the counter from dealers.
    Now that chrome overlay toolbox cover is incorrect as it did not exist in '52 in any form....
