Harley-Davidson Touring description

The Panhead is in what I would call good condition for its age.  This is no 10/10 but it's not a 6/10. Some where in the middle depending on your standards.  I like to ride and would not ride a cream puff. The paint was redone in 2006, the carb (S&S Super 'E' Shorty) and exhaust was upgraded in 2008. She starts with 1 kick cold and warmed up. If shes been riden a few times then the plugs get dirty and need cleaning. After a top end rebuild that issue should disapear.  The primary cover has a drip hole (stock) when parked for a couple days the oil settles and leaks out the hole. All the old school biker guys I know say "If your old Harley ain't leakin, shes got no oil". There's a joke that usually follows that but I'll save it for next time. Hahaha

This year (1950) was the first with the Hydra-Glide front forks (not a springer).  She has a hardtail (no swingarm), the shock absorber is located on the seat post (pogo-stick).  The gear shifter is floating on the left side of the tanks with no guide (tank shift).  The clutch is located on the left floor board (foot clutch).  She is still 6 volt with no 12 volts conversion.  To start her up you need to use the kick start. Front and back brake, and throttle are located in the same spot as modern bikes. 

I bought the bike 14 years ago here on Vancouver Island from a local rider.  From what I know, it's an island bike.  So there's NO rust!  It has a collector plate and is currently insured. 

If you have questions or want any detailed pictures email me.  I will get back to you ASAP.  

If you win the auction then I'd like $2000 within the first 48 hours.  You can pay the balance 5 days after the auction closes. 

I WILL CRATE AND SHIP ANYWHERE AT YOUR EXPENSE.  I'm not sure how much the crate will cost and how much time will be involved. So let's say I will charge $75 for my time to crate and deliver to shipping dock.  Add the cost of the crate approximately $200.  That totals $275.  If it's less then I will refund the difference, fair?

To prepare for this momentous occasion, Indian produced this commercial, which takes a nice, healthy jab at the iconic Motor Company.
