My Dad (81 years old now) had a Police Special in candy apple red a few years ago (before the replacement hips and a raft of breathing dramas which now prevent him from driving at all...). His one and only (working) Harley. As an old Navy man, he had a history of riding BSA Gold Stars, Rudges, Brough Superiors (the only bike he would dearly love to have again), Suzukis, Yamahas, Ducatis and others over the years. My Dad also had a 1942 WLA Harley for a short time, but that doesn't count, because it never "worked" and he swapped it as a rusty wreck for an outboard motor for one of his boats so long ago that I can only remember it by pictures taken at the time. He put a couch in a separate garage so he could sleep next to the Harley Police Special after polisihing the cr*p out of it to make sure it permanently gleamed. Must say he loved it - even tho he was the only biker in the country to ride wearing a white helmet, designer sunglasses and comfortable slippers. You're never too old to feel young again, mate. That twin-engined monster with 305 RWHP would do the trick! Cheers! IanM Last edited on Mon Mar 21st, 2011 09:35 pm by IanM |
