Project Description add commentupload similar
My 1925 Harley_Davidson 1200cc (74") JD was a project that took me over 10 years from finding it, till fully restored.
While on a trip to the 50th Anniversary of Hollister in Northern California, I ran into an old fellow who had some antique motorcycles on display in the campground. When I spoke to him about them, he said they were for sale and we started talking. Two weeks later, I was the proud owner of a 72 year old motorcycle for a grand total of $7,000. 10 years later, I have a real show winner and a great rider too. Lots of time and labor to get it restored, but it is the new love of my life. (Just don't tell my wife)
Project Comments & Questions
Love love love the old Harley's!! Great job! We're headed to Laconia this afternoon, hoping to see some older styles like yours!
This is so cool! How did you hook up with a magazine for a photogragh?
Didn't they have color cameras in 1997? That pic looks like it was taken the day the bike rolled out of the production line. Awesome "before" shot!
