A True Biker 4 sure

News article said his family helped him pull it from the rubble. He's had for over 30 years and said he's pretty sure it'll never run again, but he's keeping it any way. It looks to me like a Pan/Shovel. Shovel topend generator lower. His house is gone, but he's trying to work on the Harley.

Looks like he used one of those auxilary automotive trans coolers as an oil cooler attached outboard of the frame. I seen them used before and work well but don't hold up well to the vibration an HD puts out.
