Submitted by Janne of Blotsvens MC, Sweden - We went up to Bockens Twin Club in Gävle this weekend. Gävle is sort of the beginning of the north of Sweden... you know you´re up north when they paint the road signs in the snow:

The swap was held in there clubhouse, one of the clubs bikes:


This goosenecked showbike was imported to Sweden by Custom Cycle in Uppsala in the 80th. The bike was cut up and made in to a Swedish styled Pannhead-chopper:
Not everybody came by car in the snow:

The "H" on the screen is from when Sweden went from leftsidedriving to rightsidedriving in 1967. H stands for "Höger", thats right in Swedish.


SOOO TRUE!! You can read more about the bike in MCM nr 6/2007.
Supercharged 750 flathead!!!:

He can disconnect the charger, he does so wen he starts the bike:


Well we don´t have the warm California sun, just the cold Swedish winter...

I am having a hard time dealing with the awesomeness of that flathead. Bless a really right-on rat bike, not a rat rod bike.
