Clean & mean. Love them old pans and a chopper to boot!!! Style and class ! Must of been tough decision to sell , I have a 83 ironhead xlx. And I was gonna sell but I haven’t been able to part with it.
Sadly, the days of iron flywheels and potatoe idles are going extinct! Its the one thing I hate about my twincam; if I set her below a 1k idle, she stalls sometimes. Oddly, once in a great while, she'll just drop down herself ('05, last of the carbed) and potato for 10-15 seconds, so I know they CAN do it, just not for long.
I live in Alaska. Jack Herer's bodyguards brought my 49 panhead from California. 49 FL 3320,.. out of 8,014,..I believe. Got busted growing and I believe someone at Anchorage H.A. bought it. Currently looking for an XLCH or so. HEREWEGO.
