[QUOTE="Panman, post: 1394774, member: 8914"] Don, at about 1:24 into it is a 65 Panhead. I rode one for about twenty years. Last year Pan, first year electric start, only year with five gallon tanks with the old style built in push pull fuel shut off, outside oil lines (64 & 65) and still ran a mouse trap for helping the clutch. Those damm things used the same individual roller bearing for the star hub as the rod big ends, you could hone each about three times before you went looking for new. My Pan had custom billet aluminum pans instead of the tins like most Pans, actually the 64 & 65 had stamped aluminum pans.I also had stainless billet distributor with electronic ignition. It had been bought new down here in Washington and had been up and down the Al-can twice residing in Fairbanks for the first fifteen years of it's life. Not sure if I miss it or the old Sq 4 more. Of course there was the Trident with the Rob North frame in the early days when I thought I new how to ride. Congrats on getting Dutch up and going [/QUOTE]
