More about this bike
Listing details from the bike's own eBay listing: Year: 1947; Make: Harley-Davidson; Model: FL; Mileage: 9,828 miles; Type: Vintage/Classic. All original 47 Knucklehead. About 95% complete. Just needs paint and final assembly. Missing the correct oil tank, speedo, foot controls, exhaust and badges - pretty sure everything else is there but ask questions and check out the pics. Clear PA title, matching belly numbers. I much prefer cash but open to other ideas if they include some cash and swing in my favor. Things like other old bikes, American muscle cars, trucks, 4x4 vans, flatbeds etc. Also; music studio gear, vintage guitars, synths, mics, outboard etc. I have a painter and mechanic lined up to complete the project but figured I'd give someone the opportunity to grab it for a deal beforehand. Hard to find Knuckles this compete and original. Bike is located in Grass Valley / Nevada City area and local pick up is available. Delivery is also possible within a few hundred miles for a fee and deposit. Also listed on LA and Reno CL for a little less. Check out my other listings for more cool vintage and chopper parts, clearing out the collection
What the photos show
- Vintage FL presented as a project: tank and rear fender are in flat grey primer, the frame is black and there is no front fender in the full-bike frames.
- Whitewall tyres on spoked chrome rims, a springer front end, a large round headlamp and a black solo saddle.
- V-twin is shown in detail - finned cylinders, pushrod tubes and alloy cases with age, grime and surface marks; close-ups show open intake/exhaust ports with no pipes fitted there.
- No exhaust system is visible in the full-bike frames, and the tank filler opening is shown uncapped in some frames.
- One frame shows a bin of loose parts including a dash/speedometer unit, a carburettor, lights and trim - inclusion and completeness are not clear from photos alone.
- Several close-ups show stamped/cast numbers, but they are too partial or blurred to read as matching numbers.
- Can't judge from photos: whether the engine turns or runs, compression, electrics, missing parts, numbers matching or title status.
Money: $42,000 asking for a primered 1947 FL project with a parts bin shown - verify engine/frame numbers, exactly which parts are included and missing, engine freedom and title before bidding.
