Absolutely drop-dead gorgeous FLH Ken. Never seen a finer example and it sounds awesome!
I know this is an old video but dang that bike is sharp. I love modifying Harley-Davidson’s.but they’re only stock once. That being said this restoration is really beautiful.
How is it possible this video gets dislikes? maybe jealous wives who don't want their hubbies buying this beauty.
Beautiful, just beautiful! A timeless Maschine...
You should record that ideling motor it's like listing to a waterfall or relaxing sounds compilation on cd
Sounds like a horse galloping...
An absolutely beautiful motorcycle...
I have a 1972 FLH I did a frame up in 89. I did as close to factory original as I could. Other than the leather saddle bags I use but I have the factory bags. My bike runs great and looks great. I will keep it until I am gone. I still ride it but I did buy a 2002 FLSTC to ride I was afraid my 72 would get wrecked. I like my original buddy seat but my wife is not fond about it.
My dad had a 1970 Electra Glide also. When I turned 17 he let me start riding it. I guess that’s why I have always rode dressers.
Far nicer than any of the crap currently in production !
calm down
i like the exhaust smell of old harley
I had a 1973 FL Police Special. I could static time it myself to idle that low.
I used to have a 1983 FLHS shovel. Sounded just like this one. Best bike I've ever had. The way you'd enter a highway, hit it hard in 3rd and shift to 4th. I just felt it was the best feeling in the world. Like the shovel and I were one. At the time, I didn't know what I had. Sold her off to pay off a damn visa debt. Wish I could have her back. She is still in my dreams.
I love my 1972 flh
I have probably collected every brochure that was made and in a dealership in 1972. Fully dressed with tour pak, batwing, bike weighs 722lbs. 1972 was the first year of the front disc brake. It was deemed the Cadillac of motorcycles back then. Also back in the day playboy magazine refered the sporster as the corvette of motorcycles in their ads in playboy. The Electra glide was later called king of the highway. Ya can't knock it until you ride an old rumbly big dresser. It's a one of a kind feel in life that every man should experience. Non like it!! He got a clean one here!! She's a beauty!
Nicest '70 FLH restoration I've seen.
Beautiful!!! My 82 FLH was painted at the factory😜
wow amazing bike, we don't see stuff like that in europe
My uncle had one it was black I can remember sitting in front of him watching that speedometer hitting 100 mph those were the days
GORGEOUS
Very nice thank you for the video. The wife and I will have to visit soon
Long story short, Pennsylvania- it's winter with changing weather patterns/barometric pressure & I'm stiff as a board in pain service connected injuries/ wounds.
Anyway so I don't lose hope I'm going through all your videos Ken.
Loving this machine brutha. Dang she's pretty and sounds healthy.
Head south ti daytona bike week asap
She Patty Dukes ,for dang sure. Soundsjust like my 70
I see you really like your helmet!!!
How come the 1970 model year didn't have a kick start?
The idle sounds like a galloping horse!
Beautiful bike.
How can it be in beautiful original condition if it's been restored?
Really cool bike.
Beautiful except for the black luggage trunk.
Damn I love the FLHs nice solid fat bikes! Nice wide front ends. Just beautiful ⚡⚡👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁
HD needs to bring back the Shovel Head
Love my Electra Glide from 1971, all over very close to original.
Beautiful but why the black trunk instead of a white or green one to compliment the rest of the bike?
Awsome good looking piece,the tour pack should have been white too, though
Correct. They were all white, fiberglass. Made at Tomahawk,WI, factory. I know,as I retired from there ( 26 yrs,) Very nice bike.
is that a buddy seat
We used to ride FLs, FXs and Xls all over the States and never thought a thing about it. Then came the "Yupsters" and TT" (Tavern to Tavern), drivers. The Motor Company worries about future sales to enthusiasts, they should take a look at this FLH. When it idles, it still runs on two cylinders. And, you don't have to rev the crap out of it every time you ride under an overpass.
Wasn’t that during the AMF years?
Very nice Bike 😎
Nothing sounds as good as a shelve head.
1970, looks like slightly older new harley. Been into bukes over 45 yrs still cannot tell one harley from another, they all look alike to me.
Beautiful
Dose that bike have alloy barrels. ?
Those mirrors and floorboards are wrong!! I have a 71 same color
Hello From Brasil
How much did this bike sale for
Was this bike ever sold?
I'm looking to buy a restored 70 FLH but a few are trying to talk me out of it. How comfortable is the ride on these?
Nicer on the buddy seat , but cooler with the solo seat.
@@loneggebroten2484 I bought it it has the solo seat and I absolutely love it
Sweet
It's scary that the windshield-lip blocks entire cars and persons
Would look great in my garage.
Alan Smith My bedroom...
@@brushcountry6361 Hahaha...
@@tonycox7802 What is it about green HDs ? I have a really nice all original but, it doesn’t compare to this one.
@@brushcountry6361 My father had a 1969 Electra Glide. I was a very nice green and I always thought it was very sharp. Not only because it was my dad's, it was just a sharp green Harley. Call me crazy! 😜
Do you need a delivery address?
Go to Dragon Worx on you tube to see my 81 FLH being rebuilt. If you type in 81 FLH it will come up,it's red.
You should do a piece on that '71 FX Super Glide if you still have it.
im on the down hill run on my last shovel so funny people ask why you wast so much money and time on that old motorcycle i can only shake my head
I was riding with a guy, he had a new bike, I'm on my 67 ElectraGlide, at some point we get to talking, he tells me what his job is, I tell him mine, and he says, so you make good money, I said yea I do okay, he says, so you can afford a new bike, but you'd rather ride an old one, I say of coarse, he didn't understand.
I'd take the 66 in the video over the 70 every time.
The Great Peter Egan wrote that a GOOD motorcycle is one that you can replace every part on it. Burn a cam bearing on a GW. You will love the repair bill. It doesnt hurt to "pre-oil" the engine on the starter motor with the plugs out (and grounded) on the starter motor after a long winter's sit.
I have and ride an 81 I bought new. Almost original.
How much
Mark Jensen Hell yeah...!!
Deluxe! 😍🤤🎨✨🫦

AMF isn't a real H-D 1969-1981
Nice looking but thats it, unreliable
Spoken by a non biker.
@@loneggebroten2484 I've been riding Harley-Davidson since the 60 so I know how unreliable they were
You don't have to ride a Harley Davidson to be a biker I don't follow the crowd
That's the truth. I've been riding for 16 years and never owned a Harley and probably never will.
Its the newer Hogs (post Evo) that are unreliable. Huge number of Harleys bought by police forces for many decades because of their reliability.
Looks nice but remains American made junk, BMW rules the road
bmw rules till a ZX14 blows it off the hwy........hahahahah !!!!!!
Bmw bikes are overpriced and overrated, I worked on them at a dealership
R-75, 90, 100 slash models did. AND, the frames still had sidecar lugs on them. Tough bikes. I won't ride my old Boomers or H-Ds anywhere near the new bikes. Or their riders.
@@track1219 Airheads Forever!!
Tell that to a new BMW owner who had a $600.00 fuel pump crap out at 35 miles, and a recall notice that warned of exploding transmission gears on my K1600B. Took 6 months to get the parts to fix it.
