Gkm issue 35



Well, the new one is here.... Well on its way from the UK...Pre Order Here
Cover star is The Harpoon on his radical and perfectly concocted 1950 Panhead chopper: he sold an engagement ring to buy this bike... and that's just the beginning of the tale! We have another couple of Pans in the same issue: one is Joey Cano's glorious '53, the other Aki from Tokyo's '50. Both righteous choppers.
What else? A couple of homebuilt English bikes, Stevie's hard-ridden Shovel and Rob's neat Sporty chopper. We have Tyler's pared-back, racer-style 45 from Florida, Johan's really nice sixties-style Triumph from Sweden and some amazing photos from The Dutchman of Mark Drews' opinion-cleaving pre-unit showbike. Yes, you've seen it before... but not like this, or with this in-depth a story. There's also a great seventies-style Knuck chopper owned by Taku and built by the amazing Ace Motorcycles in Kobe, Japan. Cherry on a very tasty trifle is Dr Sprocket's column: this month he brings you photos from the photo album of one of the original Boozefighters, J.D.Cameron. He also sends his dispatches from Born Free 5... don't miss this one.
