Two important events in the lengthy development of Harley's perennial v-twin occurred in the mid-1960s when the 74ci (1,200cc) FH and FLH Duo-Glide adopted electric starting (1965) and the revised 'Shovelhead' engine the following year. Now known as the 'Electra Glide' - without question one of the most evocative names in motorcycling history – Harley's updated cruiser featured a new frame to house the large 12-volt battery and a reshaped primary drive cover to accommodate the electric starter mechanism. The Shovelhead 'Glide continued in production for a further 18 years before bowing out in 1983 with the arrival of the Evolution-engined 'Glide. The world's oldest surviving motorcycle manufacturer, Harley-Davidson is acutely aware of its heritage and the Electra Glide has remained a cornerstone of the range to this day.

This Electra Glide Classic was purchased new in September 1994 from Bobo's Motorcycle's in Munich (32,920 DM). Much loved by Hans, the Glide is presented in TT Burgundy/Red with lashings of chrome throughout. Very well presented, it has covered 14,945 kilometres from new and would benefit from detailing. The machine is offered with a German Fahrzeugschein and an expired TüV (MoT) certificate and correspondence.
