I got an email from Michael Kneebone today stating that my Iron Butt runs this summer have been investigated and approved. It is official, i own the oldest harley Davidson to complete a saddle sore 1000 trip! Hooray. I couldn't find a picture of my bike on this computer, but I do have this dandy pic of my left tank with one of our repro 36 shift gates and arms on it! It will have to work lol.
