Up for sale is my XXXX Harley FLH Electraglide.  I purchased this bike many years ago in Detroit.  It was supposedly Detroit City police bike, but have no proof of that.   then spent two years rebuilding the bike from ground up back in the early XXXX's..  
I completely disassembled it.  The frame was blasted and powdercoated.  I used some of the original parts, but goal was to built functional reliable Shovel, so any parts not in top condition were replaced by either NOS, used or new parts as required.  Rear fender is original.  Front fender is brand new Harley.  I converted the fuel tank from troublesome early tanks to modern five gallon Softail rubber mounted tanks, most people would not even notice. The front forks are later model XX mm FLH forks, with single caliper disc brake and HD floating rotor for real stopping power.  The rear brake is brand new GMA rear disc caliper.  Both front and rear wheels are modern high quality chrome wire wheels, with rear tire being X.X inch Metzler tires.  Handlebars are FLH style, with XX & up controls and master cylinder for modern reliable switches.  Stock nacelle and spot lights, all powdercoated black to maintain Police bike heritage.  Oil tank powdercoated black with FLH logo.
All sheet metal professionally painted nice Silver, again to maintain Police Bike heritage.   Saddlebags are stock Harley with new keys and metal.   Seat is Mustang solo, with separate passenger seat when needed.  Includes beaded windshield for the nostalgic look.  Battery is FXE style for less interference on right leg.   Horn is loud aftermarket air horn.
X Speed Transmission was completely rebuilt with heavy duty transmission case and all Andrews gears.  Shifts better than any original shovel.  Primary now has belt drive, inside the stock case. Now for the best part.   The original engine case had some damage, and back at the time built it you could still purchase brand new case from HD, as long as you sent them your case.  So, the engine starts with brand new HD case, with correct VIN number to match the frame and title.   then purchased almost ALL internal components with S&S brand new parts, stroked and dual plug heads.  The rocker covers and timing cover are OEM HD, but most of the engine is S&S.   The engine is worth over $XXXX alone in new parts.  Ignition is Dyna Dual Plug Head ignition.  Carb is HD CV Carb, with stock ham can cleaner (not in the photos).  
The engine has never been run. It is brand new S&S engine built into factory HD brand new case. Exhaust system is into header, into inch Khromeworks FLH style muffler with fishtail end cap.  
The whole story of my ownership of this bike is long, and if interested, can explain it and all the details of the build.  I put XX,XXX miles on the bike before built this new engine.  At one time sold it to friend, and he never rode it, and now have it back since he is out of motorcycles.  While love Shovelheads, have reached point in my life that my interests have changed.   My Road King suffices to provide me my riding time, so am interested in selling this fine machine am proud of.  
This motorcycle is for the person who understands that this is NOT stock Harley, built with the best parts, and is reliable modern version of XX FLH.  I have over $XX,XXX in this bike, not to mention several years of labor.
Call me anytime at XXX-XXX-XXXX if you have questions.  I am in western Pennsylvania.
