Coolest damn thing you'll see all week. 1913 Harley, heavily optioned,TANDEM !, unrestored, with a quick history and instructions how to start it. WOW
the bike's options are discussed for the first 5 minutes, then the bike is started up and the procedure is wonderfully demonstrated, step by step. (starts at minute 5:30)
Thanks Mike! This is great!

Great looking Harley, terrific pinstriping by Cisneros
For two other pinstripe examples of Cisneros work: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/08/great-kustom-that-belongs-to-one-of.html and https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilUAw2_jE_sJACihEmk_8Hn2WJWs0WMT8PYs7izZxGZRgaS4lPFGjaQ5G5p17M-qQepa4hHP6fmve37GGGYNLu6AxYsGx-0X-jL3Dv6Eor0rXg1_EWVWM2dZWS5Q8xJBd3E-hC14wiCS0Z/s1600-h/DSC05493.jpg

Annual Paddy Ride at Dublin Mob on Federal in San Diego
The guy above was directing traffic with the outstretched hand
Bullets and brass knuckles were here and there
Did you read that wrong the first time, try it again... I had to
Terrific skirt and socks, and she was the only woman I saw dressed up for St Patricks Day... damn shame, more would be better, but one was very cool
Love the shirts
Just driving by
I like the profile of this Belvedere, it seems smaller than I thought they were... has it been chopped, sectioned, dropped, and all the other custom usuals to make it look this compact? I like it, don't get me wrong, but I see it and think it looks better than originally sized.
Who invited these guys?
