This is probably one of the nicest 1983 Harley FLTs left. The last of the shovels and when Harley was not in the hands of AMF. This bike is almost completely original. The only paint work that I know of is the top of the saddle bags. The other paint is as it was in 1983. I bought the bike from the guy that purchased it in 1984 with 2k miles on it. Its always been taken care of and it shows. There are no major dents or dings in the paint work. With the exception of a small blemish on the front fairing its extremely clean. There are small imperfections here and there. What you would expect from a 30 year old black bike. Im sure a good detail man could really make this bike shine. Id rather ride than wash myself.
Everything on the bike works as it should with the exception of the hazard flasher. It fell to pieces and I have not found a new one. The lights and blinkers work fine without it. The light on the front fender does not work either. Other than that shes tip top. New tires within the last 1000 miles and a service at the same time. The original carb was changed out for an s&s many years ago. Starts and runs great. I do have the orginal chain enclosure for the bike as well as the factory seat and a few other bits. The custom seat on it now looks and rides great. The windshield is a vstream that has been cut down. I do have all the keys for the bags, fairing, and even the original Harley keys for it. The exhaust is factory Harley and has a good tone. The bike glides down the highway. It truly lives of to the name " King of the Highway".
You truly would be hard pressed to find a nicer example. If youve ever wanted an old shovel, this is the bike. It needs nothing but you. Ride it or put it up for a collector piece. It really likes to be ridden though. There are a few small drips here and there but nothing I would call a leak. The bottom of the pushrod tubes weep a little oil, but nothing major. Ive had 300+ mile days on her, and it you couldnt ask for a better bike. Especially not one 30 years old. When I tell people its an 83, they are truly surprised.
I have tried to take plenty of pictures to show all aspects of the bike. I dont want there to be any surprises. This is a 30 year old bike , so dont expect a new one when it arrives. Im sure I have forgotten something , so please ask all questions before bidding. The bike does have a clear Tn title. The bike is being sold as is, where is with no warranty. The bike is for sale locally and may end early if reserve is not met. Once reserve is met, the auction will run its course. So bid to win as it may not be there if you wait until the end.

2022 Harley-Davidson Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST First Look
Wed, 26 Jan 2022ST models offer CVO-level performance Taking inspiration from its championship-winning King of the Baggers factory race bikes, Harley-Davidson introduces new, performance-focused ST versions of the Road Glide and Street Glide. Like Kyle Wyman’s King of the Baggers Road Glide Special racer, the Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST have been upgraded with some Screamin’ Eagle Performance Parts upgrades. Harley didn’t go so far as to install the same Screamin’ Eagle 131ci crate engine, but the new ST models do come with the Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin with a high-flow intake, high-performance camshaft and a new exhaust to deliver the same level of performance as its CVO models.
Small-Displacement Class Considered for 2015 AMA Pro Racing Season
Wed, 04 Dec 2013More and more manufacturers are entering the small-displacement sportbike market and AMA Pro Racing has taken notice, opening the possibility of adding a new racing class representing the growing segment. With plans to consolidate the Daytona Sportbike and Supersport classes and the Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson series signed through 2015, a spot will open up on race weekends for another racing class to support the premier Superbike Championship. The logical choice is to introduce a new small-displacement class.
