Harley-Davidson Touring description

Hate to do it but I'm no longer able to ride :(

Up for sale is a 1976 Harley Davidson FLH Electra-Glide.  74ci, 4 speed gearbox, Zenith-Bendix carb, with 32,638 miles on the numbers matching frame and engine.  New brake calipers and lines front and back, new front master cylinder, rebuilt rear master, fresh fluids throughout, new oil filter, new non-adj main Zenith-Bendix carb on it now, new battery, new plug wires, new fuel tap, new clutch hub and springs and plates.  Starts, idles, shifts, stops, charging system is good and all lights work.

Currently plated and registered in Illinois.  I have the clear title in hand ready to sign over to the new owner.

I purchased this FLH from the son of the original owner about a year ago.  After his father passed it sat covered in the garage for about 5 years.  After I got it I did what I listed above and put about 3k miles on it.  As it sits now it is now in need of a clutch adjustment and the clutch pushrod and throw-out bearing and slinger replaced.  J&P Cycle kit to do this included in sale.

Right now it is as it is in the pictures but it also comes with:  convertable tour pack; batwing fairing, small windshield, and brackets; a spare Bendix adj main carb; extra seat that was on there when I bought it; new spare brake pads; new rear chain; and new clutch pushrod and oil slinger.

This is a running motorcycle but it is a 40 year-old shovelhead so expect ongoing maintenance to keep it running :)

I cannot deliver or assist in delivery but I'll be as accommodating as possible when arranging pickup.  A $500 non-refundable deposit through Paypal is required within 24hours after the close of the auction.  Final payment is required prior or at pickup and will need to be in the form of cash, cashiers check, or bank transfer.  I'd like payment/pickup to be within 7 days after the close of the auction but I can hold on to the cycle and accessories for a few weeks beyond that if need be.

Search You Tube for "1976FLH Cold Start October 24, 2016" to watch a cold start video I just made this morning when it was still only 38F outside and the cycle hadn't been started for 3 weeks.

Take a look at the pictures, watch the video, and don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Thanks for looking!

I added pictures - - last 4 were taken a few months back.  They show the cycle with fairing and tourpack and without fairing, windshield, and tourpack.

Harley’s Behind the Scenes at The Art of Rebellion

Wed, 06 May 2009

On February 7th, 2009, at the Robert Berman Gallery in Santa Monica’s Bergamot Station Arts Center, Harley-Davidson gathered 11 of today’s most relevant and exciting artists to present their take on the theme of rebellion. Because the event was so popular, The Art of Rebellion one-night only event quickly became a month long showing. Artwork was for sale and the proceeds were donated to Art Matters, a foundation that assists socially and aesthetically groundbreaking artists.

Harley-Davidson Denies Plans for Small-Displacement Model for India

Fri, 18 May 2012

India’s 13-million-unit-per-year motorcycle market is comprised of mostly small-displacement models, so it sounds odd at first when manufacturers such as Harley-Davidson and Triumph enter the market with their larger-displacment models. The question quickly arises as to whether they will stick with their existing big-bore models or introduce an all-new, small-capacity model for the Indian market. Manufacturers like the Big Four from Japan already produce smaller models for other markets so it’s a relatively easy task for them to introduce new models such as Honda‘s recently launched 109cc Dream Yuga.
