Gunkit Shovelhead - Straight Outta Compton!
I forgot to reread the article before this post but I believe Gunkit was the name of this dude's nightclub or bar and he painted it on the tank to advertise. Anyhow, what a nice setup here with generator shovel motor, clean molding, and just enough rake to give the bike nice lines. The ignition key location is pretty interesting as well. (from a photocopy of a 1968 Roth Choppers Magazine article)
