    Juice drum markings

    Anybody know about 58 and up Panhead juice brake rear drums having a MC symbol next to the raised numbers?

    I looked at both

    Hey Mike, I went out and looked at the 58FLH sidecar which is my Avatar photo and the wheel is in position that the part # is not readable...this M/C is buried in the corner too. Then I went over to the 65FLH and that one has a marking M within a 1/2 inch triangle shape with a C inside of the M letter itself. Dunno if that helps. I beleive there is a difference in the 58 and the 65 rear drum in the width If I'm correct..gotta watch what I say on here as people do get very detailed in every way. Merlin in Pa.

      I believe that the sidecars used the same drum as used on the front brake. I know Springer models do.

        Thanks Magic. Yes, they are different. The letters are raised on the 58 to 62, and stamped on the 63 to 67. The later ones are also wider. You answered my question. Thanks again.
