Harley-Davidson UL description

For Sale 1937 Harley Davidson  big twin flat head sport solo.  I have owned the bike for over 35 years.  It is an early 70's chopper.  Extensive motor work was done to it over the years.  Drives excellent! Has been sitting on display in our restaurant for the past 18 years. The motorcycle has no issues.  I am selling the bike because I have 2 other Harley's and had a serious injury to my left leg about a year ago and I will not be able to handle this bike anymore.  I also am getting older 66 years old time to find this rare bike a new home.  If you have any questions you can call or email thru ebay. Phone 618-893-4343 

Additional information on this bike:  When it was listed earlier I had two brothers contact me and ask if it came from the Rock Island Il area.  I mentioned that I got it from a friend who used to live in Rock Island.  They had mentioned that they had old photos from their Godfather of this same bike and it's exact history.  The bike was built  by their late godfather Frank Marino in the 70's at Power House Cycles in Rock Island IL.  Frank bought out the HD dealer Johnny Powers and in that buy out their was several bikes and parts.  Their were a couple bikes that were built at the time of the buy out and this was one of them.  At the time he had a local artist commission a custom seat for this bike.  He scanned a bunch of old shop photos and recogonized this bike when they saw the seat on the listings.  Power House Cycle was shut down about 20 years ago and he moved to PA.  The bike was personally built by him including all engine work it is truly a stunning time capsule with some very unique history.  I thank the two brothers for passing this information on to me.  So this is a very rare hand built big twin flathead.  It is exactly like he had built it.  I uploaded some pictures that the brothers sent to me when the bike was in Power House Cycles in the 70's.

Terminator 2 Harley-Davidson Is Coming Home

Tue, 04 Feb 2014

If you thought Arnold Schwarzenegger’s greatest role was in Terminator, then you should make your way to Milwaukee: The Harley-Davidson Museum has acquired one of the few surviving 1990 Harley-Davidson FatBoy motorcycles used in the filming of Terminator 2: Judgement Day. At the time of filming, the FatBoy was one of Harley-Davidson’s newest models, and the one now in the Museum’s permanent collection was ridden by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 1991 action classic. “Terminator 2 is an iconic film and a celebrated piece of pop culture history,” said Jim Fricke, Curatorial director of the Harley-Davidson Museum.
