It really doesn't matter, but this is probably my favorite motorcycle I've seen in awhile. If I could find this in a barn, this would be a bigger score (for me) than a '36 knuck. The rear shocks are from a K model (with those tightly wound springs) The Goodyear Grasshoppers look good. XLR pipes. No headlight or tail-light (which is correct for this year) It's pretty damn straight.
That trailer of bikes belongs to Todd. He's based in Socal but has a team who scours the country finding old and preferably original bikes and re-sells them. If he didn't sell it at Wauseon it could be yours. Not nearly as fun (or cheap), as finding one yourself.

fuck yeah, i met a guy a while back that was tellin us all about how amazing his XLR sounded when he used to race it at baja. His wife got a huge glimmer in her eye when she talked about how amazing it sounded and how shitty all the other bikes sounded.
