Harley-Davidson Other description

FOR SALE:
1940 ULH 80ci HARLEY DAVIDSON FLATHEAD BOBBER.

I BOUGHT THIS BIKE AT AN ESTATE SALE OF A FRIEND THAT PASSED AWAY DEC. OF 2015. MY FRIEND WAS THE OWNER OF THE BIKE SINCE 1976. I HAVE A CERTIFIED/NOTARIZED COPY OF THE DEATH CERTIFICATE SHOULD YOU WANT SUBSTANIATION. BECAUSE THIS WAS AN ESTATE SALE, I HAD TO REGISTER/TITLE THE BIKE IN MY NAME ON 9/16. EVERYTHING IS 100% CLEAR & CLEAN. I HAVE COPIES OF MY FRIENDS REGISTRATION AND TITLE DATING BACK TO 1977.

THE BIKE: (please bare with me, I'm not an expert on flatheads)
THIS BIKE WAS MY FRIEND'S DAILY RIDER. JUST BEFORE HIS PASSING, HE CONVERTED THE BIKE TO 12 VOLTS WITH A NEW CYCLE ELECTRIC GENERATOR AND REGULATOR. THE REGULATOR IS AN ELECTRONIC "LOOK ALIKE" OF THE OLD DELCO-REMY STOCK TYPE. HE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF RE-WIRING THE BIKE WHEN HE PASSED. ALSO, AS SEEN IN THE PARTS PHOTO, IS A NEW S&S "E" CARB WITH SPACER BLOCKS HE WAS GOING TO INSTALL. PIPES WERE REMOVED DURING THE WIRING PROCESS. OTHER THAN BLOWING THE DUST OF THE BIKE, I'VE DONE NOTHING TO IT. TRANSMISSION IS A EARLY 4 SP. RATCHET TOP. I BELIEVE THE TANKS ARE OF A 45,GAS ON LEFT SIDE, OIL ON RIGHT SIDE. I WAS TOLD THE SPRINGER FRONT END WAS ORIGINALLY STOCK BUT HAS HAD MODS TO IT. I PLEAD THE 5TH ON THE SPRINGER AS I REALLY DON'T KNOW. WHAT I DO KNOW IS HE WAS RIDING THE BIKE RIGHT UP TO THE 12 VOLT AND CARB CONVERSION BEFORE HE PASSED.

ALL PARTS SHOWN CAME WITH THE BIKE.
GUYS, I'VE TRIED TO REPRESENT EVERYTHING TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. A BATTERY, COMPLETE THE WIRING, INSTALL CARB AND PIPES AND THE BIKE WILL RUN AS IT DID WHEN MY FRIEND STARTED THE 12V AND NEW CARB UPDATE.  F.Y.I.. BOTH "BELLY" NUMBERS ON LOWER LEFT AND LOWER RIGHT OF ENGINE MATCH. THE NUMBERS ARE BOTH 40 1618.

THANKS,
DAN

Watch As Motorcyclist Gets Chased By Elk – Video

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

Apparently, elks aren’t too keen on motorcyclists, as the video below demonstrates. This couple, aboard what sounds like a Harley-Davidson (that potato-potato exhaust note is unmistakeable), were riding along in Missoula, Montana when this elk decided he wanted to take the road for himself. As traffic slowed and eventually passed, the elk took a growing interest in the couple on the motorcycle, approaching them.

Harley-Davidson Recalls 250,000 Motorcycles for Rear Brake Light Switches

Mon, 24 Oct 2011

Harley-Davidson is issuing a recall for 250,757 units from its Touring, CVO Touring and Trike line from model years 2009 – 2012. The rear brake light switch on the models in question may become degraded due to the heat from the exhaust systems. This may affect brake light function and may result in a brake fluid leak.
