Chromed or polished?

Dakaar yellow and silver? Fishtail pipes? King & Queen saddle with backrest? HD saddle? Whoah! Look at those handlebars! OMG. Lafranconi whizzers with the insides removed? Those motorcycles are pretty wild Peter! Are these really yours?
 
I built the chopper back at the turn of the last century and rode it for years . I spent a lot of time at HD dealerships
and there were numerous take off parts that I got for a pittance . Actually made it to a New York MG rally with it . It's
long gone now . The other is my Le Mans 2 , I bought new in Alberta just shy of 4 decades ago . As I aged ( how'd I get
so old ? ) I changed it frequently to match my new comfort requirements (aching body parts ) . I'll find a picture of
what I replaced the chopper with :)
 
Just skimmed over this thread. I will get back to it and post hopefully this weekend. I got hella busy this past couple weeks with work and life lol
 
And this is the one I replaced the earlier custom with . This took a full 3 years to complete , but it's really a treat
to ride :) . Peter 729
 
You nailed it :) . One of my frequent trips to Lillooet throughout the summers . I've put over
50K kilometers on that bike , plus a few rallies in Washington and Oregon a couple of years ago !Peter
 
Just ordered some autosol and some polishing bits.
I'll post my results. Thanks everyone
