Performance Machine’s 40th Anniversary Hot Rod Bagger
Thu, Jun 3, 2010
Every year, the folks at Performance Machine look forward to designing and fabricating a new custom motorcycle that will be used throughout the year to showcase PM products. You might think of these bikes as a sort of mannequin, but with much more personality.
For our 40th anniversary, we really needed to do something special that represented what Performance Machine has always been about. What better way to commemorate four decades of high-quality, high-performance, made-in-America products than a ’70s-flavored Hot Rod Bagger in red, white and blue. So much for growing old quietly – what began as a stock ’03 Road Glide resulted in a mid-life crisis of steel and billet aluminum.
The PM 40th Anniversary Hot Rod Bagger features our latest wheel — the Contrast Cut Platinum Element — with matching components along with all the PM goodies we could throw at it.

Love the bike! I’m trying to find a number plate headlight like the one on this anniversary bagger. Any idea where I can get one?
Matt,
Glad you liked the bike! The number plate was a hand made piece.
Thanks for the comment,
