How DO you tell the difference between a junker that needs to be respectfully buried and a diamond in the rough that just needs a little love to shine again? To the untrained eye, all motorcycles with a little rust can look pretty similar.

 

Fortunately, Rick Schunk, author of How to Rebuild and Restore Classic Harley-Davidson Big Twins 1936-1964, shares some tips on choosing the right candidate for your hard-earned restoration time and money.

 

"What are the most desirable Knucklehead models?" you ask. It's pretty much as you would expect. The first year of production, 1936, is top dog. No question about it. Most owners of 1936 ELs (lovingly referred to as the '36 Club) are fanatical about their Knuckleheads.

Dear ASD,
Leanings 3
Peter Egan's writing invites you to pull up a chair, pour a little scotch, and relax while he shares with you his tales from the road, his motorcycling philosophy, and his keen observations about the two-wheeled life. His columns and feature articles are among Cycle World's most anticipated each month. Egan's legions of fans know they will always leave his articles with a fresh perspective.

Leanings 3 offers a fresh collection of Egan's motorcycle musings delivered in his signature wise but amusing style. For added perspective, each feature article is preceded by fresh commentary from the author. This is an unforgettable collection of the works of a master writer whose simple adventures of life remind us all why we love to ride.

Be the first on your block to get this great collection. The book is due in our warehouse in early August, but if you order now, you can secure your copy for just $22.40. That's 20% off the list price of $28 for this insightful hardcover book.
