Harley-Davidson Other description
1972 Harley-Davidson Police Bike, This is a very original 1972 FLP Police Bike. The story that I got when I purchased this bike was: The police officer who rode this bike on duty purchased it for himself when it went up for sale. He rode it around until the early 1980's. He felt he had gotten too old to ride, but didn't want to get rid of it. He kept it in his garage and started it up regularly. He passed away and his wife kept the bike until approx 5 years ago. A friend of mine found out about it and told me. I ended up buying it for my collection. I have started it up and ridden it around a bit, not much. The miles are actual, so that shows how much road this good ol' bike has seen! The speedometer is original, the seat is original, the center stand (kickstand) is original. I just put a brand new battery in it. The paint on the tank and rear fender looks to be original. It looks like the front fender might have had some paint work done at one time. The bike doesn't appear to have ever been jacked with. I've noticed that when it sits for a long time, the clutch tends to stick. It may need to be cleaned or the bike might just need to be ridden. All of the numbers match on the bike. It starts right up and runs good. It sounds just like a good ol' Shovelhead should sound! This bike does not have a price on it because it is being auctioned on Ebay. It can be seen in person at my dealership. I am a dealer. I can issue a permit for an additional $3, if the high bidder wants one. If sold to a resident of KS, I will have to collect sales tax (7.15%). If you have any questions, please feel free to call Larry @ 316-393-5275 from 9am - 9pm CST.

35 years ago this month
Fri, 28 May 2010IT'S 35 YEARS since Evel Knievel attempted to jump 13 London buses at Wembley Stadium. Riding a heavy, slow Harley-Davidson XR750, the American daredevil had serious reservations about the jump, admitting the take-off ramp was too short, therefore limiting the bike's speed. But even though the plucky American knew his chances of pulling off the stunt were slim, he was reluctant to disappoint the 80,000-strong Wembley crowd.
