Old Restored 1959 Harley Davidson HD FLH motorcycle
The nicely restored 1959 Harley Davidson FLH for sale is a 1200cc 1959 Harley FLH Duo-Glide Panhead motorcycle with a 4 speed floor shift (mousetrap), juice brake in the rear (first year), drum up front. Restored to original condition in 2002 by owner from a basket case, engine rebuilt by professional - 800 miles on the old Harley since the rebuild.
and it has a newer Corbin single rider original style motorcycle seat, original SU Carb and the original fuel tank, original frame with matching numbers, original front end, etc.
Go here to see more old 1959 Harley motorcycles for sale. The transmission was rebuilt at same time as motor.
This beauty has over 90% of its original parts PLUS I've invested more than $30,000 in restoring it over the years.
FWIW,
Jerry Lee Lewis' 1959 Harley FLH sold for nearly $400,000!
It's black and beautiful with the original 6-volt system and:
- the original front end with rake-changing pull-out forks and big chrome adjuster knob (possibly could have been a police bike but HD archives still can't confirm, although they said the full chrome tank emblems (no red) is a probable sign)
- many of the original parts that I have had re-chromed (mousetrap, dash, fender struts, etc.)
- a knockoff inside primary but outer primary is original with no dings
- original oil tank chromed to reflect the times
- Hard-to-find Center Stand with Duo-Glide raised lettering
I expect that you will as "Does it leak". Of course it does. . . it's an old
Harley Davidson Panhead. . . LOL.. but nothing more than the primary doing what it's supposed to do.
My best hope is to trade with someone interested in the bike - $10K cash and a used (but decent) Dyna
or
Harley Softail That I can scoot around on. I need the cash but need to ride just as badly -- LOL.
I haven't ridden the bike in a while (maybe 3 months ago) as I am preparing for a hip replacement hence my desire for a motorcycle with an electric starter.
I could go on and on listing accessories and features but you just must see to appreciate.
I have many extra panhead parts that will go along with the bike including another transmission and side cover, primary chain, another genuine dash with the green neutral lens, manuals and parts catalogs and other stuff.
My asking price has been drastically reduced as I can no longer ride.
If you decide to low-ball me and I accept, I will keep the extras and blow them out here or on eBay (sorry).
This fine, vintage Harley motorcycle was the Concours d'Elegance 2nd place winner in Ohio in 2005, other trophy's taken throughout the East Coast. Meticulously maintained and garaged at all times.
Clear PA title.
Bear in mind that NOTHING will work here except cash, so don't waste your time telling me it's for your son in New Jersey and your shipper will pick it up. . . LOL.
You may contact me for more pics or to view the bike
