When I get done rebuilding a motor, I like to sit and stare at all the hard work I just did . . . but, the poor Harley 45s only get a few minutes. Built as a workhorse - not a showroom beauty. Not for sales - For a purpose.
The Harley 45 - The forgotten one for years and years. Nobody cared. "Hey, for $200 you can have the whole bike . . . just get it out of here." What goes around comes around - The 45 may just get the last laugh.
Stubby little lifter/valve covers, finned cases, finned cam cover, and those large finned aluminum heads. To me it's a thing of beauty, but I'm always rooting for the underdog.
ReplyDeleteI love it, probably gonna look too pretty for "Private Pile" but it is gonna be cool to have it up and runnin. I had to give a little more than $200 for the bike a couple years ago but your right..... wasn't long ago they would give them away.
