Hey Pam, if that was the Harley then the bulb had probably fallen out ;-)

Had to lockwire all the engine bolts on the Nortons to keep the engine in
on long trips :-) Used to carry the camera in a bag wrapped in a plastic
bin liner - made one trip through the tail end of Hurricane Charlie, you
guessed it, one wet camera...... Strapping the camera to the bike tended to
make it a pile of parts after a few miles.




All the best,
