Product Description
The Knucklehead motor was replicated by Tedd Cycle, Inc. and released on January 9, 2002; along with the (Linkert carburetor-intake port) OEM-style Pan cylinder heads in three models: The 1948-'54 (plumber manifold); the 1955-'62 (O-Ring manifold); and the 1963-'65 (external oiler) style. Our shop manual was written for existing "runners"; and for "builders" of Knuckle & Panhead motorcycles using new, replicated parts. Some topics covered in the step-by-step procedures are explained better than the Harley manual, or the excellent, photo-ladened, Clymer's Panhead manual. When other manuals suggest, "replacing the clutch hub liner..." we show you how, and the tools and parts necessary. Our Electrical chapter is reported to be easier to use, when testing generator output and troubleshooting problems. We suggest having a library of every OHV Big Twin manual ever printed.

Best "Tool" in my tool chest January 14, 2005
C. Spalding (Chandler, AZ USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I'll keep this short and to the point. As the title says, this is the best "tool" I have in my tool chest. The information in this book has helped me more times then I can recollect. The book is written from a practical perspective and isn't full of theoretical "how to". It even includes descriptions of how to make some of the special tools you'll need from items you probably have laying around your shop. I can't wait for Vol. 2!
 Be a man drive a Pan November 23, 2001

This book is lacking in some important areas. No carburetors, no transmissions, no brakes. Need to know how to adjust your mousetrap, change springs on a springer, or fix a leak on your hydraulic front end? You won't find it in this book. The topics it does cover are great, easy to understand, and well detailed. The bottom line is I do use this book and it has become a permanent part of my shop library.
Buy this book first July 31, 2001

I am looking into buying a Pan, and searching for more than anecdotal information. This book is the best source of Pan info I have read so far. It helped me realize that a Pan wasn't the best choice, and that I would need to spend a lot of time wrenching, instead of riding. I wish they'd write one for Shovelheads!!
