Not one Harley in the bunch.
Buncha rice burnin’ nerds.


I almost killed myself on the rice burner, crotch rocket. I said enough. Never became man enough for a Harley/Davidson. At one time I was thinking about a 74 knucklehead, or was it a panhead? But decided I would become a deadhead if I did. Not grateful, I know.

Knucklehead would be 47, think panhead is 74?

Here ya go:

The panhead is an ohv Harley-Davidson motorcycle engine, so nicknamed because the rocker covers resembled cooking pans. The engine is a two-cylinder, two-valve-per-cylinder, pushrod V-twin, made in both 61 c.i. (EL) and 74 c.i. (FL, FLH) displacements. The Panhead engine replaced the Knucklehead engine in 1948 and was manufactured until 1965 when it was replaced by the Shovelhead.
