The bike retains all the vintage features from earlier models with paddle switches. the real neat integral handle bar throttle. stronger heavy tubular swing arm and drum brakes that are maintenance free. don’t flag out in the wet and seem to last the life of the bike. The 1200 Shovelhead engine is mechanically and electrically simple and a piece of cake to work on if you ever feel the need to dabble. The bendix carb is off in a couple of minutes and has virtually no moving parts. heads come off in the frame with no need to remove the engine. Electrics consist of easy access coil points and voltage regulator. the famous 70’s Hitachi starter motor which never packs up and reliable monster generator. Complete unspoiled vintage Electra Glides in pristine condition are extremely hard to find most having been chopped about with the rare few good ones commanding brand new Harley prices and rising each year representing a sound investment rather than a burning hole in your pocket. New Harley vs. Classic Harley:Pretty much a no brainer assuming you buy a usable big twin machine and avoid the nails you get just as much. if not more pleasure from riding a classic machine. The big plus is the investment rather than the depreciation associated with the vast range of new and relatively modern used Harley’s. The rarer the vehicle the more its desirability and associated value. The great thing about Harley Davidson unlike any other brand of motorcycle is you can still get hold of virtually all the engine parts due to demand from the vast client base of vintage model enthusiast and bike restorers.
