Description

1983 HARLEY DAVIDSON FLHS SHOVELHEAD 1340 CC LAST YEAR???? THE RESEARCH I'VE DONE POINTS TO '83 AND SOME '84? (QUESTIONABLE 1984) ARE THE LAST YEARS FOR THE SHOVELHEAD MOTOR. THIS RARE HARLEY DAVIDSON CAME FROM THE FACTORY WITH BELT DRIVE AND ALSO ELECTRIC STARTER. THIS HAS THE LARGE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY (VERY DESIRABLE).

THIS HARLEY DAVIDSON WAS ORIGINALLY FROM MISSOURI AND I BELIEVE (NOT VERIFIED) THAT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL MILEAGE ON THE BIKE. THIS WAS IN STORAGE FOR YEARS BEFORE I PURCHASED IT.
THIS HARLEY HAS THE S & SCARBURETORS ON IT (THIS BIKE WAS EXTREMELY FAST WHEN IT WAS RUNNING).
THE BAD:
I WAS RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR AND IT LOCKED THE REAR WHEEL IN FIRST GEAR. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT OUT OF FIRST GEAR AND MOVE IT INTO OTHER GEARS (OTHER GEARS NOT LOCKED). I WAS ABLE TO PUT CLUTCH IN TO MOVE AND START. AFTER SITTING FOR YEARS THE TANKS NEED TO BERE-COATED. IT PROBABLY WILL NEED A NEW BATTERY.
THIS HARLEY DAVIDSON IS BECOMING EXTREMELY RARE AND VERY TOUGH TO FIND! OWN A HARLEY DAVIDSON THAT IS ONLY GOING TO INCREASE IN VALUE IN THE FUTURE (THEY ARE NOT MAKING ANY MORE OF THESE)!!! THIS WAS POSSIBLY THE LAST YEAR (MAKES IT MORE DESIRABLE)!!!
THE VIN NUMBER ON THE FRAME MATCHES THE MOTOR!
The speedo says HarleyDavidson. I believe this is the factory speedo. It also reflects that it only goes to 85 mph and kilometers (which is correct for time period)
