  • Harley Davidson 1949 Knuckle S&
    HARLEY DAVIDSON 1949 KNUCKLE S&S BOBBER 2607 SOLD The bob-job evolved from an earlier type of American custom motorcycle, the 'Cut Down', which appeared in the late 1920s, and which was based on the Harley-Davidson 'J' series v-twin. The cut-down was created to modernize the appearance and improve the performance of the aging J-series Harley-Davidson. By removing the front fender and removing all excess accessories, the motorcycle was significantly lightened. The cut-down was also characterized by a sweeping diagonal line between the steering head and rear axle. Such modifications became the standard for bob-jobs, which grew in popularity, whether as show bikes or ordinary road bikes. Bob-jobs reflected the aesthetic tastes of their owners, and were home-built, there V.O.F. Yesterdays - www.yesterdays.nl - offi[email protected] - +31 495 54 60 54 | Page: 1 being no commercially produced road-going bob-job available until the late 1990s. In the late 1990s, the term bob-job became shortened in popular parlance to 'bobber', and the style saw a resurgence in popularity in the custom motorcycle scene. The bobber continues to be favored today; although hybrid styles have emerged, such as the "bobber chopper", and "retro-bobber". Such bobbers exemplify the continuing evolution of the style, and its enduring popularity. The example presented here, consists of an original 1949 Harley-Davidson FL Panhead frame with a new S&S EL Knucklehead engine, which is 74ci or 1200cc. This bobber features, fat 18 x 400 tyres, springer front suspension and has a “hard tail” without any suspension.

  • Clint Bowyer: Motorcycle Man
    Clint Bowyer: Motorcycle Man By Jay Pfeifer fter spending his childhood crisscrossing the Midwest to race motocross, it’s fair Photography by Jim Fluharty to say that motorcycles are now just a part of Clint Bowyer’s DNA. They aren’t A an exotic hobby. They aren’t an affectation. They’re who he is. “I still love to ride,” he says. “I ride my bike pretty much any time I can. Whenever the weather’s all right, I ride my bike from my house to the shop. It’s still the best thing to do on a nice day. There’s nothing like it.” The 30-year-old is part of a small fraternity of Cup drivers who learned to race on two wheels. And even though he had to forsake his dreams of motocross stardom and now pays the bills (and more) driving stock cars, Bowyer maintains a fleet of motorcycles. A couple Harley-Davidsons, one custom Jack Daniel’s-themed bobber and a few “pit bikes” — small dirt bikes commonly used in other racing series to get on and off pit road — fill his garage. But on a sunny April day, Bowyer took possession of what’s destined to be his favorite — the “Merc Glide,” a one-of-a-kind Harley-Davidson that Bowyer commissioned from Klock Werks, a custom bike shop in Mitchell, S.D. If the Glide looks familiar to Bowyer fans or longtime readers of this magazine, that’s intentional. It was designed to be the two-wheeled companion to Bowyer’s pride and joy, his heavily customized 1949 Mercury “lead sled.” (The same car appeared in our September 2007 issue.) Brian Klock, the head of Klock Werks, had driven through the night from South Dakota to deliver the Merc Glide and its arrival marked the last step in a long development that began, strangely enough, with a golf cart.
