Sportsters Are a Drag

From 1968. Check out the unique fork mounted gas tank. Way cool!
Show and Go.... I dig when drag bikes double as show bikes.

The Thing

I had seen some old pictures of this bike on some other blogs awhile ago and I was surprised to find that it's still around. It's in a feature on Bikernet.com right now along with a new Evo version of the bike built by the original bike's builder son. It's too bad the feature is mostly focused on the newer bike. Perhaps there's plans for another feature? It also appears the Thing now has new S&S cases. Makes me wonder how much of the original is intact? Yes, I know, racing engines tend to blow up.

Warning!... there's a couple of scantily clad women blocking most views of the bike. http://www.bikernet.com/bikebarn


I just found this old shot I had saved.
