 1951 Harley-Davidson Panhead Barn Find *NO RESERVE* Title included

Titled in 1966 as pictured. This barn find motorcycle was recently discovered in East Tennessee. Owners had it for 40 years. It must be noted the engine has been re-numbered. This bike is exactly what you see from front to back. Very original, in  tact 1951 Panhead. Engine turns and makes no bad noises. Transmission does not shift gears, likely shifter forks are stuck. Both tires hold air, and bike rolls easily. I took a picture underneath the dash and I believe the original color might have been the red color. It was probably repainted very young in its life.

Why the numbers were altered or the engine was changed, I do not know, and have no answers. I can only represent the bike for what it is as a re-numbered barn find Panhead with title. Look the pictures over carefully. Also note I have not run this motorcycle. I believe it will run with a minimal amount of effort although it will require the transmission being removed and freeing the shifter forks. The engine could very well run in tact along with most of the running gear.

All hand controls and brake controls work nicely. Has rare cross over dual exhaust with unique straight pipes. It will certainly make a heck of a noise when running. Stainless seat cover over battery is original. Has original tombstone tail light lens with Harley embossing. For those Panhead experts, this is a great opportunity to find an intact Panhead. Only item that I can see is missing, is the horn. Any questions, call Dale at 828.734.9222.

This bike will be sold with title, and must be picked up at the Wheels Through Time Museum in Maggie Valley, North Carolina.

Q3 2013 US Motorcycle Sales Results

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

Motorcycle and scooter sales in the U.S. in 2013 remain consistent with last year’s figures, according to data released by the Motorcycle Industry Council. Several manufacturers blamed poor weather for the poor start this year, and the rebounding sales in the third quarter helped to negate the slow sales from earlier in the year.

Harley-Davidson Reveals “Twin-Cooled” Engine with Precision Liquid Cooling

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

As we gleaned from recently revealed CARB documents, Harley-Davidson has introduced two new liquid cooled engines. The new engines use a combination of air-cooling and precision liquid cooling, similar to what BMW did with its 2013 R1200GS. One version of the engine, dubbed the Twin-Cooled High Output Twin Cam 103 will be used on the 2014 Harley-Davidson Ultra Limited and the Tri-Glide Ultra trike while the CVO Limited will use a 110ci engine known as the Screamin’ Eagle Twin-Cooled Twin Cam 110.

2013 Harley-Davidson Breakout Unveiled at Daytona Bike Week

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

In a rare move, Harley-Davidson has unveiled a base version of its Breakout months after first launching the exclusive Custom Vehicle Operations version. Presented at the 2013 Daytona Bike Week, the 2013 Harley-Davidson Breakout offers a similar low and muscular profile as the CVO version but at prices starting at $17,899 compared to the premium model’s $26,999 price point. Tom Roderick reviewed the 2013 Harley-Davidson CVO Breakout last August, saying it “continues the tradition of exclusivity, performance and style customers have come to expect from Harley-Davidson’s Custom Vehicle Operations.” But take away the premium CVO features and what do you have?
