Absolutely gorgeous bike. My God...

1975 was actually the first year our over-protective nannies decided we didn't know our right from our left. Back when there was still a pretty good mix of both out there, most of us had no trouble going back and forth.

I feel strongly enough about the fact that proper sporting motorcycles shift on the right (at least from that era) that while I'm in there doing a major hot-rod rebuild of my '76 Sportster, Im converting it back to the way H-D and God Himself intended - right hand shift, baby!
