1973 Choppers - A rare photo of Derek Davidson and his 74 "A Classic Case"

Cover: "A Classic Case" - This is a rare photo of Derek Davidson and his 74. True, Davidson's bike is a classic roadster that has the credentials to be the ultimate serious profiling machine, but it was built to be more than just a showpiece. The fatbob was built with the idea of running seven days a week all year long, with a minimum of mechanical DNFs, and Davidson tells us that that's just how it works. The particulars are inside.
