Mounted the sidecar chassis to the 1949 FL for the first time473 viewsInstalled all the mounting brackets on the Panhead, you have to take a LOT of stuff off of the bike to get everything on; tanks, right saddle bag, front exhaust pipe, crash bars, etc., etc. It all went on very smoothly, may go for a ride today if I get the pan back together.FlatHeadSixNov 13, 2010
