This was July '84 on the day I brought home my first big twin. It was a '72 Shovelhead in a '74 frame. I traded my '71 Sportster and some cash to my friend Larry Settle for it. I didn't leave it like this very long and much later I kind of regretted changing it. Maybe it was the style and the flames on the tank, but it seemed like every Japanese bike that came along wanted to race.
It's kind of a funny coincidence that 9 years earlier on the day I bought my Sportster, I also wasn't wearing a shirt.
