Description

Original down to the "Police silver" paint. purchased new May 15th 1964 from Bill Chaney Harley Davidson in Pleasant Hill California. 13. 12 original miles. it will be sold with the original paperwork and lots of other documentation including a video clip with the original owner and the shops mechanic who set up the bike when new. The bike is 51 years old so its not "as new" but it is as close as you will probably find in an un-restored original bike. There are "patina" scratches and spots but no dents and to me that's a big part of what makes this bike desirable - "its only original once". I first came across this bike in 1979 where I met the original owner and his wife on it at a filling station and have been friends with him ever since. The original owner sold it to his longtime friend and the mechanic at the dealer where the bike was purchased (he also did the dealer set up on the bike) and I bought it from that person three years ago. There are many stories that go with this bike including how the original "police silver" paint color (which was not a color offered to the public) was included with the original purchase. The original owner insisted on the color which the factory originally refused to supply but after finding that no California police agency's were using it they relented and supplied Bill Chaney with this color sheet metal from the Harley Davidson factory which was installed before the motorcycle was delivered. I will work with the buyer to help ship the bike. but the buyer will be 100% responsible for its shipment. Please feel free to contact me before or during bidding to discuss details about the bike and or shipping. I can supply additional pictures upon request. Oh and the bike runs great. but it is "kick start" only. last year before the Electra GlideThis is a link to a YouTube video taken with my iphone last year with the original owner and its second owner who was also the mechanic that worked for Bill Chaney who did most of the work on the bike from its out of the crate set up to the installation of its accessories.
