It is a twin-cam assembly with lots of race history including finishes at the Catalina Island original races and again in the 50 year anniversary race in 2012. This 1928 Harley JD Twin Cam was last run in Catalina and it was put away wet.  This bike was removed from homer’s place just after his passing and the guardian cleaned the bike ): The motorcycle is now in private storage waiting for it s next curator.
