New bike

[themotorcycleguy]

I haven’t been on here for a few years because back when I decided to sell a couple of my bikes a guy offered me a bunch of money for all my bikes. I’ve regretted selling them all and not having something to ride. Fast forward to today… I’m in Florida for a few weeks helping my Mom out and came across this rusty, crusty Western Flyer so I’m back in the game! I’m shocked that the tires/tubes are holding air, pieces of rubber were falling off in chunks on my maiden voyage. I guess it’s time to replace the old Davis Deluxes, then grease it up and ride.

Cool, a very rare Shelby built straight bar!, looks pretty OG execpt aftermarket guard and Schwinn glitter grips!

Good find! Perhaps a "T" serial numbered frame which does not emerge often. When you find the time, please post your machine on the Shelby prewar Serial Number thread with both a good pic of the serial number and bike itself....lucky buck!
