Awesome collection Todd. Ya lets keep an open mind,The brits did this also,almost no 2 alike because parts were always updated and they used what they had. We should just enjoy them for what they are,and ride them because that's what they were built to do. Keep these vids coming cause we are all learning from you,most people would not share this info.

I am using my sons password, but I have been watching ur Chanel since I first stumbled on to it. You do a great job and I have learned so much. I seen you was back selling the shovel items the other night.. Keep it up. Traviss Spurlock. KY

Thanks for the lecture Todd! I've learned a lot from you again.

Just came across your videos, You are a great teacher, hope to see more of your videos HuntingHarleys

Wow, just big wow. Knuckles are the most adorable engines to me.

Just Subed your Channel and cant stop watching , What a beautiful collection. I don't have a Harley but love the timeline and the Era long gone. My Dad had a Knucklehead with the side cart , He was a Policeman in the Late 40's Early 50s . I hope you are able to save your collection and this history stays here in US for generations to see and learn something of the past . Peace and Prosperity to you.

Super video Todd. Love learning about this time in motorcycle history,very random stuff. At the time all they wanted to do was get the bike to the customer!

I completely agree with you TODD

I love your collection Todd!

All are beautiful, seriously

Love watching you !

Fantastic collection and channel. Sub'd up now. Been trying to educate myself on everything I never asked my gramps. Getting ready to start poking around his Knuckle, a 1945 EL ... original paint I believe (not positive) but he rebuilt it a number of times over the years. Hopin to track down the bits and bobs that I'm sure are stored away.

I didn't know Knuckleheads had iron heads.

Still waiting for the tutorial on the Dodge Dart.

It dont get better than 8 knuckles in a row!!! dont ever sell

You have an amazing connection

Ya just watched this video for about the 100th time....Lol that new red bike is gonna fit in just fine')

Wicked bikes, master historian on knuckles!

I wouldn’t care if the numbers are matching, a nice daily rider would be fine.

The green knuckle is for sale on Ebay.

Why did they have offset springers Todd?

@HuntingHarleys

10 жыл бұрын

throughout Knuckle production, Harley continually "updated" the angle of the rake for better handleing, finally coming out with the offset springer in mid 1946. This 'offset' is still used in production today.

NOS, short for New Old Stock, correct used, means Original parts from the factory manufacturer that are brand new and never been mounted on a machine.

But beware... ;') My friend Hildo once got a small NOS part for a WLC or WLA. In the box, never opened. This was say five years ago. So he opened the box and discovered it was stuffed with a 1943 newspaper only. Obviously some less patriotically inclined individual had been pilfering parts. The paper had an advertisement for 'catsup' and that is how we discovered people used to spell ketchup differently in earlier days. Now this was some cheap stuff, but if you want to collect mint-in-box NOS parts you better have the expensive ones X-rayed before buying..

Geert de Jonge that is why you see me opening a war boxed NOS speedo in one of the videos. Just because the box has never been opened does not mean something is inside

You You know your shit about ol Harleys and should write a book so this information can go on for years to come you could name the book Hunting Harleys by Tood

Knuckleheads were made 1936 to 1947. They were used during WWII

Do you still possess all of these bikes?

I’ll give you a grand and take them off your hands to clear space in your shop ;)

The serial numbers on that shelved engine look sketchy.

Extreamly valuable info, think its about time for you to write that difinitive knuckle book before some yuppo who never had grease under his fingernails prints a glossy coffee-table pin up collection ...... you have the proof and have ridden the miles ..... make it happen .... I cant afford the bikes but i would use your word for study just in case . Keep up the great job and do it your way!
