72 Sportster I owned. Bought new and by L73-E74 I had chopped it.

Girder front end w/ Hallcraft hub laced to a 21". I wanted to run a spool hub but In California it would get you a ticket for no front brake. The hallcraft was uselss but it avoided being tagged by CHP because it met the "definition". Mikuni carb. Paint and goldleafing was by Tony the Ball. Frame modified by Kenny Puccio. Don't recall where I bought it tho. Bike initially came with e-start. Dumped it for the kick only. Sold it in 1982 to a guy out of San Francisco. Always wondered what happened to it.

Still riding the old Sportster. I’ve had it for 30 years now. Here it is in 1990 right after I bought it...



...and here it is today.
