This blog
is my way of sharing the passion I have for vintage motorcycles. You will find
photography from the past found on the web, but also photographs shot in the
shack with the progress of my projects or shots with friends on the road and
much more. Eventually I will also post motorcycles parts I would like to sell
or trade. If you own the rights to any photos I post and want them to be
removed, please let me know. Comments and suggestions are always welcome, Feel
free to contact me, email is
Enjoy!

The Pan Project ...

So??? ... this project is really going on from ages ... have some photos taken with the phone when I started this "challenge" that show how I set up the work ... The bike story in pills: sold my Road Glide to get this nineteen57 Hydra Glide Panhead with a straight leg paughco frame extra raked, an Std crankcase and heads with dual spark plugs, stock cylinders, a shovel trans and mechanical brakes in front and rear. 16" both tyres ... was running all good, but too many things were not matching with my idea + was pretty stupid to ride on everyday shitty roads like we have here, the ride height was embarassing and cornering was really easy to scrape, or worse, beat the frame down ... I wanted a totally different machine. Couldn't effort to get a ready to go one, so I decided for this strategy. Get a bike at a reasonable price to play with and to develop my vision ... Smart Ass Uh?!?
