Kinda like here. When the big 'anything goes' bike rally's are going on someone always shows up with an old Harley 45 delivery trike in whatever raw form it may be in...

We had a 45 chopper for a while. It was a death trap.

(kicked out springer, suicide clutch and no front brake).



We ended up parting it out and saving someone's life. ;-)



Hell, you probably enabled ten other guys to fix up their choppers and get ten death traps on the

road!



Springers with derby hubs are not that bad as long as you have a hand

clutch and a foot brake (rear). If you have a hand jammer with a foot

clutch and a foot brake, you run out of feet coming up to a light ;-)\



I was still never much of a chopper guy. I thought my 72 Super Glide

may have been the cleanest stock Harley they ever made. I did have

"Sportster" pipes on it instead of that collector system they shipped

with.

I never saw much future in butchering a bike either.
