Jeff Leighton's 1938 EL

The owner of this bike is a committed collector, builder, fabricator, rider and lover of old motorcycles. His quiver includes show-stopping Triumphs, Flatheads and more recently, this Knucklehead. With help from very qualified friends like Frank Kaisler and Wes White, Jeff has some serious talent to lean on. Jeff has been riding this machine for a while and since these photos were taken, it's been completely torn down for paint by The Harpoon. We thought it'd be cool to document it in its rougher, "dry build" form.
