1965 Harley-Davidson FLH PANHEAD (1965)
So the first go round with this bike fell through and now we are listing it again.Up for sale at this time is an amazing real deal winners circle 1965 electra-glide.This is being sold by me for the family of my friend Larry McLaughlin,who recently passed away.I am the agent for the family,and all questions regarding this bike can be answered by me as I was the mechanic who worked on this bike for years.Mudfish motorcycle company 631 682-5973.There is no desperation in this sale,So we are not interested in tire kickers or trades or strange offers that make no sense..The bike can be viewed by appointment through me and the description should leave little to be discussed. The history of this bike is known from the get go through Larry's research and this is what we got here..The original owner bought this in Nov 1965 and had it for a bunch of years.This is a Holiday Red and birch white 1965 1st year electric start panhead with king of the highway poackage(top of the line).In the mid 1980"s the bike was purchased by Chris Lesavage.I knew Chris very well from the 1970's untill his passing,and upon reciept of the bike Chris commissioned one of his 2 harley restorer's to do a complete renovation of the bike.Chris had a collection of over 130 motorcycles and he was not shy about spending the money on the bikes he owned.Back in the 1980's Chris used both Steven Wright, and Jeff Slobodian as his resto guys for harley and one of them redid this piece.It remained in Chris' posession untill all his bikes were auctioned off at the famous Lesavage auction,in 2003..I was at the auction and it was quite the big deal.The bike was purchased by a Mr George Stieger here on Long Island and George brought it down to BIG Boar Cycles in hempstead where they went through the bike and made it roadworthy(we have all those reciepts)..George rode the bike for a while and then Larry acquired the bike from Goerge..Larry was new to the Amca back then and he found me(Mudfish) and together we went about the process of bringing the bike to its top level,,and although a painstakeing undertaking we got it to where it is today.The restorations of the 80's were quite different than the judging now,and although the paint and frame and engine were up to snuff,many minor details had to be changed.Larry refused to be dettered and had me remove both wheels,(re-lace with genuine nos cad harley spokes,),restore the hubs,Nos goodyear super eagles,nos 65 only starter and generator,nos mufflers,Nos saddlebag lids,and a ton of other nos genuine parts..Only Nos would work.Larry hunted for 1 year for a correct nos 1965 only battery cover..The last pic shows its last judging sheet into the winners circle,but even after that he had me fix all the little details that are on that sheet..The only thing I did not fix was the 1 point loss for heavy paint on the rear fender,,and the speedometer issue.The speedometer should be restored for a restoration,But Larry insisted it be left with the mileage because it is the original mileage on the bike from day 1..After the bike made the winners circle it spent 8 months in the winnners circle exhibit up at the Motorcyclepedia Museum in Newburgh(this is the Amca's wing where only the best go to be seen by the public).This bike has a fair reserve for a bike of this calibur,and it is for sale locally so it can be sold at any time...Also we require a 500.00 non refundable deposit through paypal at the end of the auction within 48 hours the balance is due via bank transfer,cashiers check or in person within 1 week.. I'm back at it and gonna go hard,so keep an eye out for lotsa parts for Harley jd,vl,45,knucklehead,panhead,Shovelhead,Flh,sportster and more.Also throwing in some other vintage parts for indian,excelsior,etc..Overseas bidders are welcome to bid on all my items..Overseas winners must pay via Paypal only and overseas shipping will be determined at the end of the auction and will be via Usps international 1st class or Priority mail only.

2024 Yamaha MT-09 SP Review – First Ride
Wed, 28 Aug 2024Better suspension and Track mode brings us so close to an R9 Photos by Dave Schelske As the tail rider in a train of approximately seven identical Yamahas, I couldn’t help but watch in awe as each of us weaved our way through the notorious Tail of the Dragon, bending the bike underneath us to our will through the 120-something corners, the unison of the dance mesmerizing as each of us took our turn, one by one, around each apex, at irresponsible speeds, front wheels inches away from the person in front of us. This is the kind of trust you build up after you’ve ridden with the same group of people for years on end. We all know that riding with your friends is fun.

2024 Yamaha MT-09 Review – First Ride
Tue, 14 May 2024More minor changes in anticipation of the R9 Photos by Joseph Agustine. There really wasn’t a reason to update Yamaha’s MT-09. We love the MT-09, and apparently you do too – it’s been Yamaha’s best-selling MT model for a decade.
2024 Yamaha Ténéré 700 First Ride
Wed, 13 Dec 2023Small updates keep the T7 fresh, but we're still missing out on the European variants Photos by Yamaha/Joseph Agustin Photo Yamaha’s popular Ténéré 700 “T7” adventure bike returns for 2024, and while it would be easy to say it is “largely unchanged” from the 2023 model, there have been some notable changes made in response to feedback from many North American riders. One wish still unrealized: the U.S. dealers won’t be getting the up-spec World Raid and numerous other versions of the T7 the EU enjoys - at least not this year.

2024 Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ Review
Thu, 17 Aug 2023Riding 950 miles across three states in two days highlights this Tracer’s capabilities Photography by Joseph Augustin New motorcycle model introductions follow a well-worn path: travel to the event location, eat nice meals, get briefed on the bike of the moment, ride a route designed to highlight the bike’s strengths, take photos/video, eat more good food, return home, and write up a review. After 27 years in this industry, I still get a cheap thrill about throwing a leg over a new motorcycle before it is available to the general public. However, what really gets me going is when I have a chance to log more than just the couple of hundred miles typically covered in an intro and spend some real time on the road with said bike.
2023 Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ Review – First Ride
Thu, 18 May 2023Yamaha’s sports tourer middleweight receives an influx of technology for 2023 Astute readers are probably wondering why Motorcycle.com is publishing a First Ride of a bike that’s not coming to the States this model year. Our reasoning is that, thanks to the sleuthing of Dennis Chung, we suspect the Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ will be coming to the U.S. in 2024.
Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ Finally Coming to US for 2024
Thu, 06 Apr 2023Sport-tourer equipped with radar-based adaptive cruise control Last November, Yamaha Motor Europe revealed a new Tracer 9 GT+ at EICMA, a new version of its Triple-powered sport tourer equipped with a 7-inch TFT display, adaptive cruise control, and a radar-linked unified braking system. Yamaha Motor USA, however, remained quiet about it, and we later learned the Tracer 9 GT+ was not coming to the States for 2023. In fact, even the less techy regular Tracer 9 was left out of Yamaha Motor USA’s returning model announcements.
Yamaha MT-10 SP Project Bike - Update 1
Thu, 26 Jan 2023Everythings installed and initial impressions. It’s been about a month since we introduced Motorcycle.com’s 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP semi-long-term project bike. In case you forgot the premise of this whole thing, Yamaha offered us the opportunity to hang on to an MT-10 SP for an extended period of time, and since I have a soft spot for the bike, I decided to give it some tasteful upgrades to address some key weaknesses while also unleashing some trapped potential.
