Harley Davidson 1946 FL Knucklehead. Bike is titled and registered in my name and is free and clear. Engine has factory unmolested vin boss with factory stamped non-matching 1946 cases. Both cases are 1946. Cylinders are reproduction, but all other parts of the motor are OEM, including, timing chest cover, lifter blocks, oil pump, cylinder heads, rocker boxes, rockers and tins. Motor is completely rebuilt with a little under 4000 miles on rebuild.

Andrews S Grind Cam and OEM timing chest gears and oil pump. Front Head has had one repair at front Exhaust Diving Board, but other than that, the motor is without flaws. Rebuilt M74B carb jetted to 17. This motor has been meticulously built and is well broken in. I would get on this bike and ride it anywhere in the country without a single consideration. The bike has no issues whatsoever and is mechanically perfect. The frame is a 1946 Bullneck with all visible forging numbers. Sidecar loops have been cut, and upper speedo mount / tank mount has been cut, but re-welded back on. Frame is straight with no other visible repairs.
