A few pics of my 1922 Elgin "Factory Bike" with springer fork, all in original Barn Find condition. Converted to a Board Track Style with hand fabbed copper and brass fuel tank. Surprisingly, the metal seat pan is very comfortable...........really. Click on the individual pics to see larger versions.
