That thing is truly formidable what with the antlered deer skull and the boat cleats on board.

Thanks Nick, i shot the deer then did the mount which is a big job getting all the flesh off.
It used to be real white but has aged.

Thanks Jan, we worked on it for a few hours but can`t get the brakes to pump up so ordered a new master cylinder.

I'm not a motorcycle guy Lenn but am impressed with the total setup - good looking Harley and the sidecar really is special. Looks like a lot of fun when you get the brakes fixed -make sure to take some pictures when you're out and about with it.
Regards,
Larry
