Again this Harley has had the same owner for the last 63 years. He bought the bike at 17 years old from a friend (the original owner) on August 6th. 1952. He has owned the bike ever since until recently having made the decision at 80 years old to sell the bike. I have the entire history of ownership available from the past 63 years. and am happy to share the amazing story of the bike's history and ownership. Aside from regular servicing of the bike. very very little has been done to this motorcycle during the last 63 years. The original seat rotted and fell apart so the seat was replaced. The original muffler cracked along the lower welded seam. so the muffler was also replaced. During the original owner's term of ownership during the first five years of the bike's life the original motor went bad. It was replaced and upgraded to a 74" Knucklehead engine which was a huge upgrade due to increased motor size and power. This motor coupled to the original four speed transmission and foot clutch/tank shift combo offered much easier capability of cruising at highway speeds.
