Anybody know what this model of a Harley is? I think it's a 1930's knucklehead.

Nope, it's not the panhead. I thought the panhead was a side valve motor, but according to Wikipedia it's not.

I would have also just parked and stayed if Mojito's, Daquari's and Caparinias were served for Dessert... :P

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.
