Re: [emrat:5750] Easy Rider up for auction

Went thru this shit years ago when vintage roadracing got big in this country;  There were at least 5 Rob North/Dick Mann Daytona 200 winning BSA Rocket 3's floating around.  The original was most likely raced, wrecked, and rolled and thrown on the scrapheap.  If anybody has the original, it's probably Sammy Miller in Britain.  Wayne E.

I heard on NPR that bike is expected to sell for 1-2 million bucks.  I would take that bullshit any day!

I'm with Curtis on this one. I think it's bullshit.

Regarding the Captain America bike, this one does not appear to be a Panhead. I question its authenticity. Even if it was one of four made, it is less desirable.

I'm pretty sure that photo was taken down under, possibly Australia or New Zealand. I've a keen eye for such obvious things.

OMG!!!  OK, where are some photos from that era of Wayne?  Ron?  Larry?  Anyone else?

 

Well, here is my photo again.  Somewhere in the southwest of England, September 1971, breaking in my new bike, before crossing the Channel to France

 

I rode this bike—which I still have—to my first RAT rally at Steamboat in 2002.  And then decided I needed a modern Triumph, which led me to buy the 2001 Speed Triple, which started me down a very slippery slope.

I remember one of your pictures from back then. Good stuff. I was bit of a non-conformist with my past life in looks as well. I have had hair down to my behind, mohawks (Purple and Green) earrings etc. The only thing I still have are my tattoos and my old biker jacket from the 80's (from my punk days, now with my 59 club patches).  I'll regret this I am sure, but here is one of my hippie pics.

Thanks, Doc.  I thought there were only three bikes built: the one destroyed at the end of the film and the two that were stolen.  I guess I did not know about the 4th one at the museum in IA nor about a third one being stolen.  I think imitations have been built over the years by other people.  Seeing the movie for the first time in 1972 when I returned to the US was pretty powerful, given the times.  I had hair down to my shoulders, wore John Lennon glasses and rode my 71 650 Triumph Tiger.
