well, if your frame number is 1K, that would mean the frame
was manufactured in November of 1961. H-D started selling
1962 models in Septmeber of 1961, so the frame is a 1962
model for sure. The 961 belly number of you left case makes
the left case a 1961 Super 10. The "9" isn't Septmeber, but
the number HD used to designate a particular motor type,
in the case of all 1960 to 1966 models, the 9 stood for
"lightweight", not Panhead or Servicar or Sportster

1 K I believe

I cleaned the paint off and found " 1 " and possibly a" K
". It definitely is not the full "K", but it is straight
lines and one is at an angle. "K" would be the only
letter like that. The triple tree number is 45692-53 I
want to thank you for you're help.

Harley started stamping all their frames during 1952 no
date code on frames made in the year 1951

And here are he numbers. This is 8 J. That would note
the
frame being made in October of 1958, which would be a
1959
model 165 frame

didn't have time yester evening to get some pics, so I
did
first thing this morn. Here is the left side of a random
frame

So I believe this frame to be used from 53-59. Since I
have the 59-up speedometer . .seems I could build this as
a '59 ? I know it is a Frankenstein, but it seems my
parts would best match to build it looking like a '59.
