We have this 1965 FL Harley Davidson Panhead on our floor- it belongs to a long time customer that has been dealing with us for many years. This bike was sitting in his storage building for at least 10 years, I picked it up, pumped up the tires, put a new battery in it, cleaned the gas and it fired right up and runs great. It has a lot of OEM original parts and a lot of after market parts, including the cases, they are from V-Twin but the original OEM cases are included in the sale with the title. The original cases leaked as pretty much all of them did at that time and he switched them over to V-Twin cases. The cases in the bike are not stamped, but the original ones are, see pictures. This is a beautiful motorcycle and they are really getting hard to find in this condition. He is only selling as he took a spill on another motorcycle and he is unable to ride. The starter, lights, horn, and engine all sound great. If you are in the area please feel free to stop in and check this bike out. If you have questions please feel free to ask and thanks for looking.
