1961 Harley-Davidson FL Duo Glide Panhead Original Survivor for Sale

1961 Harley-Davidson FL Duo Glide Panhead ORIGINAL SURVIVOR!

"1961 FLF Panhead" This is an exceptional original paint, unrestored, 1961 Harley Davidson. One family owned its entire life until now, was purchased from the 81 year old son whose father purchased new. As you can see from the pictures below it is in exceptional condition

for 55 year old used motorcycle. This bike is about as original as a 55 year old motorcycle you will ever find and is completely unmolested with original paint on all parts with all original chrome and all original plating and accessories. This ole Duo Glide is basically the same as the day it was brought from a Los Angeles dealership.

Everything on this bike is as it came from the factory with the exception of three minor items. The original owner lost the battery cover during its dry storage every winter and was replaced with an old aftermarket one seen below. Second, the white section of the buddy seat has been replaced although not the white skirt part as it yellowed and cracked.

Third, the top clear section of the windscreen yellowed and was also replaced by the original owner. It runs very well with no smoke or leaks, the transmission shifts with the familiar Panhead feel and goes through all gears exactly as it should.

It starts easily and runs great plus all the electrics appear to be in full working condition, including all lights, horn, charging system etc. Neutral light does not come on could but could just be the bulb. These late model Panheads have a nice bit of torque, and it will go as fast as you could possibly want to go on an old machine. This particular bike is very nice to ride very smooth and an enjoyable vintage machine that is good for long

and short distance rides. It's large brakes are quite good for the period but obviously not as good as modern breaks.

The chrome rims are still bright the cad plating on the spokes is very nice. The rest of the chrome on this bike is still very good and well above average, there are no dents in any of the body work. The exhaust and mufflers look good. This 61 Duo Glide has not been professionally or extensively detailed. It has only been wiped down with soft cloth. Full detail will be at the discretion of it's next owner which would really brighten this old Harley up if decided. Still has original headstock lock and original keys. Overall this bike has stunning original patina and in my opinion is just how you would want to find an old original motorcycle which runs and rides great and as near to perfect as you will ever find.

Put this classic time piece in your collection today and watch it increase in value!
