1961 HARLEY DAVIDSON PANHEAD FLH  DUO-GLIDE

This is the one everyone has been looking for!

A VERY VERY RARE hard to find collectors dream MOTORCYCLE!

This bike has had two owners since it was new off the Harley Davidson dealership floor. Purchased BRAND NEW IN LOS ANGELES CA IN 1961

The last owner (one of my best friends) purchased it in 1974 from the original old dude that bought it new from Harley Davidson. My buddy was a factory trained certified Harley Davidson Mechanic for over 40 years and was the only person ever to lay a wrench on this Motorcycle! All of his schooling and certificates were earned in the Harley Davidson factory!

He worked for me in my Harley shop in San Diego Ca for over 12 years from 1990 - 2002 so I have known this bike myself for 26 years.

This 1961 Panhead has never seen a mechanic outside my friend, he purchased the bike with 677 miles on it in 1974. He would never allow anyone to touch his bike.

He rode this Panhead from San Diego to Sturgis and back problem free in 2012.  I was told this bike is 100% original drive train, I know he re-painted it about 30 years ago.

This beautiful Motorcycle has never been modified or molested in any way! Original 6V electrical system still all in working order. Original wiring and glass bulb lights.

I think maybe the seat was recoverd about 30 years ago??

Original California 1961 Black / Yellow Lisc plate on the bike.

I have been in the motorcycle business for over 30 years ( I AM NOT A EXPERT ON VINTAGE BIKES) but I know way more than the average person!  

For more info please call/email or text me.

I can also text you back a video of the Panhead running and riding down the road from last weekends little 28 mile ride back and fourth to my local CALIFORNIA car show.

People LOVE this awesome vintage motorcycle history every place I go!

Happy Birthday Elvis!

Fri, 08 Jan 2010

Born on January 8th, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, Elvis Aaron Presley would have been 75 years ago today if he was still alive today.  As a tribute to “The King” of Rock and Roll, the Harley-Davidson Museum has created a special exhibit, expanding on the semi-permanent collection from Elvis that has been on display since the museum was opened in 2008. The bill of sale, insurance, and registration papers for the 1956 Harley-Davidson KH pictured above will be on display along with the motorcycle that was owned by Elvis and the Graceland Museum has loaned some rare photos for the occasion. Along with Cadillac’s, Elvis had a passion for motorcycles but especially loved his Hogs and rode Harley’s in many of his films, including Roustabout (1964), Viva Las Vegas (1964), Clambake (1967) and Stay Away Joe (1968).
