That has to be one of the nicest frames I have seen in all my years of riding Pans

 

Im happy to hear that because I thought it was pretty rough but it is pretty old for a motorcycle thats had its fair share of stories to tell. It has dents and dings here and there that need to be addressed but the welds were the biggest issue.

 

The difference between the coasts in driving stuff is immeasurable - they in the land of fruit and nuts ride almost every day and the herbs they inhale lend the bike to end up as trash for the most part

now that canada bikes frame has one and only issue is the dents — from polar bear teeth marks actually and the guy mysteriously is missing no one knows what happened and from what i have read no one cares

 

Then I'll stop complaining and count my lucky stars. It explains the tooth I found stuck in the seat post.

 

Thanks for the photos. On 1940s–50s rigid frames I’ve seen several characters on one side or the other but that is the first time I’ve seen that one. I have no idea what it is.

This is what I see

 

Sidecar tail light question.

The tombstone tail light has a 2 bolt tab for the plate bracket which wouldn't be needed on a stdecar tail light. This example shows that tab unused. Is this how they came or was there a side car specific tail light?
