    I have a book I can look that up in. I will have to dig it out.

    That looks a lot like a custom job to me, but I am no expert by any means. Going to be something really old by the look of the gas tank. Springer front end which is before the oil filled shock. The engine is what to be looks like something that shouldn't go with a bike of that age. Maybe its just all the chrome.

    I will look for it tomorrow and see.

      That'd be great. Even if you can only tell me what year the frame and tank are from.

        According to what I can find, that bike appears to be a custom job. The tank itself is most like a 1916 model. The forks could have been from a similar year, but the "chop" was not. The frame itself is most like a 22, but its definatly not stock. The engine looks like a 36 model EL 1000cc, known as a knuclehead.

        So pretty much as far as I can tell someone created that beast by hand.

          It looks like they could have created more seat.
