This is a very cool and super Nostalgic Harley. The tank stripes are new however they are correct for the Red Electra Glide bikes in 1976… and they scream the 1970’s!
This bike has been upgraded to ride and enjoy around town or a road trip… doesn’t matter to this bike, it is freshly serviced and tuned and dead ready to go anywhere. You are going to call me crazy… this bike does not leak oil! The previous owner was a gearhead and was mechanically meticulous with this jewel of a bike and a true piece of American history. The owner before him was an Indian Motorcycle dealer out of the great state of Texas who owned the bike for many years before letting it go to the gentleman that I purchased the bike from.
This bike is not a perfect show quality, museum piece (even though you could get plenty attention at a show). It has it shares of small blemishes on the frame and what not here and there… Instead, it is a great cruiser with just the right number of modern upgrades to make it a true pleasure to ride… while retaining plenty of original quality and nostalgia! It has been upgraded only… Not taken apart and restored.

When was Harley-Davidson officially founded?
Harley-Davidson was founded in 1903 in Milwaukee, WI and officially incorporated in 1907, with Walter Davidson acting as the first president. Arthur Davidson became the first general sales manager and the secretary, while William Davidson was the first works manager. William Harley, meanwhile, became the chief engineer and treasurer.
Who were the founders of Harley-Davidson?
William Harley was only a year older than Arthur Davidson. The two boys grew up just a couple of houses apart in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Such was the start of their lifelong friendship.
Both boys were enamored with bicycles. William even took a job at a Milwaukee-based bicycle factory when he was 15, rising from the rank of cycle fitter to drafter, which led him to work as a draftsman at the Barth Manufacturing Company. It was there that he designed his first internal combustion engine. It was based on the French de Dion-Bouton engine, which would go on to be used by many early motorcycle manufacturers.
Along with Arthur, another draftsman from Barth, and a friend whose father owned a lathe, William and his cohorts would spend the next several years working on a proto motorcycle in their spare time. The prototype fizzled out, but it proved invaluable because it made William and Arthur realize that they needed a machinist.
The two reached out to Arthur's older brother Walter, who was living in Parsons, Kansas, at the time. Walter arrived expecting to see a motorcycle but instead was greeted by an unfinished mess. But in that mess, Walter saw a dream, so he decided to stay in Milwaukee to make William and Arthur's dream a reality.
William Davidson, Arthur's eldest brother, joined the trio. By 1904, a second prototype was completed. It was the first-ever Harley-Davidson® motorcycle to participate in a motorcycle race. And while it didn't win, the team was already off and running to make motorcycle history! ‪@harleydavidsonpeople‬ ‪@WickedHarley‬ ‪@harleydavidson‬ ‪@HarleyDavidsonBreakout‬
