Harley-Davidson FL 1200 description

One of the nations best bobbers, Cover of Cycle Source Magazine Dec 2014. Vote top four bobbers of the year. 1949 Harley Davidson, a real pan-shovel.

Original 1949 Harley Davidson FL cases, completely reconditioned including glyptol coated crankcase. Original HD flywheel with new crank pin and rod bearings. New aftermarket cylinders with stock bore, new pistons and rings. New Andrews J cam, Burns no oil ! 1978 HD heads, recent valve job, new guides. Work done by Cafe Cycles in New Oxford Pa. Beautiful throwback machine cast rockers. New points, plugs condenser, rebuilt timer. New cycle electric generator with built in regulator. New S&S Super E with Thurder Jet and custom aircleaner.

Brand new Paughco straight leg frame with custom mid controls including new reproduction 1960s Juice Drum rear brake and Suicide clutch. V Twin springer, HD star hub wheels with new rims and spokes. New Firestone vintage tires with one Summer's worth of riding on them. Front drum brake. Zombie performance custom bars, Panic cycle black headlight with copper trim ring. New model A tail light with vertical plate mount. All new wiring by me, Antigravity battery.

70s Era Harley 4speed gearbox, total rebuilt kick only. Ratchet top 4 speed hand shift with custom brass skull shifter, New BDL belt drive with rebuilt HD clutch with big fix kit.

Cole Foster tank, ribbed rear fender, custom oil tank, all beautifully painted by John Waggoner of Big Toe paint in a bronze patina with black accents. Pinstripes by Chris Long. The Relic Society stickers are removable, underneath is "lil bastard" and "49" the oil tank gas tank and other bits have some wear and tear, a few chips and rub marks and some well earned patina. It's worn with pride as I didn't want a show horse, but a workhorse that I can ride anywhere. It leaks a few drops from the gearbox, needs a couple primes when cold and starts on second kick, only takes one kick when warm. Loud as hell. Very fast for a 67 year old engine.

This is built by me, Rob Gibson as my own personal bike. I know every nut and bolt. I'm ready for a new project so I'm letting this one go. I'm in Gettysburg Pa. And will be happy to show it and ride it around for you. No u can ride it unless u buy it.

I can deliver it for an additional fee, this way you can meet me and I can show you all the specifics of the bike. Bid with confidence, you won't find another bike like this.
