I was watching some YouTube videos Canned Heat’s On the Road Again came on with different images flashing across the screen. Saw these two interesting shots of the group on bikes. A couple of pans and a sporty but the bike on the far left has something different.
Can anyone tell me what motor that is?

Mmmm,,,, could be. Those valve covers look bolted on. I thought the old VW valve covers were held in place by a tension bar(???) kinda like the old brake reservoirs were held in place.

🏆 and here’s your trophy.

Thanks Keith. I believe that is the only bike I’ve seen with a covair motor. Interesting. I would like to see more of this bike.

It sure looks it. Norm was in a lot of movies and his T bucket in lots of tv shows .
So I am guessing the photo of the MC is a movie still. I don’t think norm was a patch holder. Is he the guy on the bike in that picture? Idk

Canned Heat . Well I guess the band was out that way for a while so perhaps they rounded up some bikes for that promo shoot.
Edjumactional stuff.
Norm being a few years ahead of my time.

The smell of spilled fuel in my garage evaporated the memory-fumes of this Egan.
Had to seek it out.

Well being that I leak more overnight than my triumph and the fact that leaded gas is not mainstream available , the article , Allthough a good read , is irrelevant .
Egas in comparison stinks to high heaven.
Leaded is good.
I recall those late October nites where over rich chokes waft leaded exhaust with a wondrous aroma never forgotten
Egas , not Egan , sux!
