Gadzooks - at first glance, it's a DeLuxe with KJ gas tanks. But looking closer... The engine block is way too tall - it looks 4" taller than normal. The cylinders don't look DeLuxe either. Maybe this was Al Crocker's first attempt at a Hot Bike? The exhaust looks like a KJ, with somehow the DeLuxe downtubes grafted on. There's a brake on the front wheel. There's no rear brake pedal. The front fender looks KJ-ish, but the forks don't go through the fender. Maybe it's a Harley fender. The front forks - the rear part looks KJ, but the front part looks maybe Super-X. Maybe a KJ headlight. The horn looks like an 8C, but it seems short on the back. The handlebars don't look like either KJ or DeLuxe. The instrument panel looks like neither also. A little hard to see, but it looks like the speedometer is at the front. The generator looks like it's on the right side of the motor. Geez, this is a real head-scratcher...
