Old School...

[Steve5D]

Went to a vintage motorcycle show at the World Golf Village here in St. Augustine over the weekend. It's always difficult to shoot at these events, especially when it's a sunny Saturday afternoon and thousands of people show up, but invariably I'll end up with a couple that I really like. In this case, an old school Harley gas tank, with the shifter on the side:

In hindsight, I'm thinking I could've gone with a bit wider DOF, but I still dig the shot...

Yeah, pretty old school. I was unaware that they had used such a system. The History of Harley Tank Shift Panheads | eHow

Yeah, there were a pretty surprising number of them out there, too...

Huh... I was actually expecting a picture of an old school, but that's pretty cool too!

I'd rather have school on riding that bike myself
