Harley-Davidson Other description

Up for sale is my 1978 Harley Davidson Shovelhead FLH with factory installed side car. I got this from the origional owner who orderd it from the factory with the side car. He also claims miles are true. I had a Harley dealer authenticate that the bike came from the factory with the side car. While Harley doesn't keep records back that far they were very confident that this bike came from the factory with the side car. The adjustable triple tree and steering damper are the determining factors. The bike is really in great shape and runs great. At some point he painted it blue. Paint job is not great but I think it looks pretty cool as it is something that would have been done back in the day. I have not checked all the lights but know the head lights and horn work. The bike runs great and is a blast to drive. It starts right up and yes it leaks oil like every other shovelhead. I have the stock white seat and windshield that goes with it. Check out all the pictures to see all the details of the bike.

You can either enjoy it as is or do a full restoration which would make this rare bike very valuable. With knucklheads becomming so outragiously priced, shovelheads are becoming popular. Making this a very unique and valuable bike as years pass.

I have a fair/reasonable reserve on this bike. So bid to own.

Motorcycle Buying Tips For Women

Fri, 17 May 2013

Over the past few years, especially since the height of the economic crisis, more and more women have turned to motorcycling both as a way to save on fuel costs, but also to experience the joys of the open road. In an article recently published by Consumer Reports, some tips are provided for women looking to enter the sport for the first time. The first bit of advice is to “Sit on a lot of different bikes first,” says Angela Annamalai of Shelby’s Powersports in Bronx, New York.

Survey Says Harley-Davidson and BMW Motorcycles Less Reliable Than Japanese – But Owners Don’t Care

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

A new survey conducted by the Consumer Reports National Research Center finds BMW and Harley-Davidson  owners are much more likely to report major problems with their motorcycles than owners of Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha motorcycles. The survey, which will appear on the April 2013 issue of Consumer Reports, says one in three BMW owners reported experiencing a major problem with their bikes in the last four years. Harley-Davidson owners were slightly better, with one in four reporting serious issues.

Who To Watch In The AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

The Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series is set to kick off this weekend at Daytona International Raceway, and the competition looks set to be as close as ever. In the contest’s three-year history, the combined margin of victory stands at just over two tenths of a second. And last year’s dogfight saw ninth position take the checkered flag less than eight tenths removed from the victory. Each previous contest has developed into a full-blown drafting war, with the class’ evenly matched machinery testing the tactical acumen of its pilots as they negotiate the high banks within inches of one another.
