There's some numbers for you Doc. I dig the bike on the left. very racey with it's low bars and short windscreen. Looks built for speed to me. Real speed. Like lakes speed.
Jedd, take a close look. Those bars are all the same and stock out of the upper tree. Boys back after the War. The coolest part is the left and right machines have the ultra-rare pull up windshields. Spot the chrome tube just at the top of the spots. It pulls up like a window shade pulls down. It has fold up rods on each side to hold it up when at full height. I've wanted one of them for "old blue" for ever.
How come I never really SEE the picture until after you comment on it? I knew nothing about those windshields. Good luck finding one. I had never heard of it until now. Somebody help the Dr out! Find him one of these.
Roy, I've got some friends who have originals on their original paint knucks. I even seen an NOS one handed to a guy that was going to make repops. Never happened. I can rescreen one. It's the mechanism and hardware that I can't find. I can duplicated or restore pieces if I can find one in any salvageable condition. Thanks for any help in that direction.

Doc I've seen a couple, but all the screens were junked out. You too? Or could you work with something like that?
