Picked up my first Harley the other day. I was looking for a rigid framed chopper and my buddy that works at the local Harley dealer told me about this bike. It's a 2000 softail standard with a built motor, geared cams, ported heads, S&S carb and high compression pistons.

IF it was my bike that would be the 1st thing to go and be replaced with a sporty styled or similar tank and I'd be hunting a decent set of pipes that flow with the lines of the bike but that's just meComment

Agree with Panheadpete---tank is big---I would go with an alien style tank and lower and narrower bars.Comment

Hi all, new guy here. I've been screwing around with bikes since the mid 60s. Have had a few Harley's over the years, most recent was a 2008 Ultra Glide which was like riding the living room couch. Sold that and thought I was all done with bikes.
I got the urge and told the missus I really wanted another old Panhead, it is the one I miss the most. I ran into a guy who had this little beasty and we managed to work out a deal. Motor is VERY tired, paint is from the late 60s, basically it is a nice complete bike wating to get torn down and done over.
I have two years before we move out to Arizona to "retire" and I hope to finish this girl up about the time we move.
Best,, -HarryComment

Beautiful! I would leave the front alone and just focus on the fender. Maybe a different seat after you are done with the fender?Comment

How's my 78 Ironhead lookin? Gonna put the chain and rear brake back on it. Got a new genny coming in tomorrow.
Building it myself in the garage, so everything takes more time. Asking for some winter ideas.
Thanks guys.
I'll be switching out the rear and front pegs to put them on a two seater. Maybe making a new light bracket. I'll work on the sissy bar some more this weekend.
