I'm sure all of you will be wishing me luck today as I make plans to pick up the '48 Panhead. Has to be gone from Maggie Valley by March of 2018 so maybe we make it a party.

Didn’t know about it before now, I’ll try to find it, check it out and report back.

I don’t remember who owned it but I remember riding a bike like the one in the foreground, 400cc , it was sneaky fast !

CORRECTION: it was a Yamaha 400.

I think my little 400 will be a fun bike when it's done.
