Far from the trend-humping, low-mileage types on The Biker Spectrum exist a few good men like the owner of this rustic pan. Fritz is the kind of guy who's more concerned with eating up miles of backroad than he is with impressing anyone at Bike Night or on the innerwebs. He's a veteran traveler of Northeast USA two-lane highways, and he makes a great leader on group rides—if you can keep up. Fritz isn't afraid to split lanes or haul ass, and he can keep that pace all day. This is the bike Fritz rode on this year's Gypsy Run, but it's only one of his great daily riders.

Owner: Fritz
Location: Hudson Valley, NY
Engine: Psuedo-pan: STD cases & heads, '79 H-D flywheels & cylinders, '49 EL rods & Camchest gears, Wiseco pistons, Andrews grind #1 cam, Baisley rockers and Hunt magneto
Frame: Santee straight-leg rigid
Fork: H-D 39mm Narrowglide, 10 inch over with three triple trees


Chassis mods: Raked to 45 degrees by yours truly. Plated back in '95 when chrome was still affordable
Tire/wheel size and style: 16" rear/21" front; Evo sporty aluminum hubs with stainless spokes
Doodads: Dual over/under headlamps, Yamaha XS1100 taillight, custom sissy bar splint


Favorite thing about this bike: It runs. 62,000 miles and still going, original top end from when I built it, I just keep changing the oil and twisting the right grip
Next modification will be: 300mm rear tire and some beach bars
Thanks to: My machinist Rich B; John White & Julio (parts guys); Mark, Mike and Tony (paint and bodywork)
