Description
Harley Davidson FL1200 Electra Glide
The previous owner of this classic bought it from Fred Warrs. in London from new in 1974.
As is 74 cubic inches (1200cc) – it's a '74/74″.
The owner was in retirement age and finding its seat height increasingly hard to live with.
So in 2007. with a great deal of sadness he part exchanged it with us for a Fatboy
we had in. from there we didn't do a great deal with it. apart from loan it out to shows and biker haunts etc.
As the owner was a traditional type of motorcyclists it explains why it's in such original condition
in original dress and also has original keys (panniers and ignition etc.) and handbook etc.
A lot to thank people of this era who weren't like a lot of us aspiring builders used to chop these
up in the 70′. 80′s and 90′s. that's why there are not many around in such original condition.
We have stripped and sympathetically repainted the tin. at the same time we took the opportunity
to remove the heads and barrels to check engine over. which is absolutely fantastic condition
as the previous owner stated. he used to let the old girl warm up for at least 10 minutes before
he'd take off on her. then he rode it very steadily. the great condition shows it had a thoroughly
good home and was well looked after – we haven't seen one in such good mechanical.
electrical and body condition. of this era. We have the original clock which shows the
odometer at just over 22. 00 miles. this was replaced by the clock on it presently
which shows just over 8. 00 miles.
The previous owner still comes in now and again to see his old flame and
leaves with a tear in his eyes. threatening to buy it back and just to leave it in his living room.
We'd like to keep it. but we need space. for impending imports –
so having a bit of a clear out of non essential stock – i. e. owners own motorcycles. including this one.
£15999. 00 – may PX.
