Description

This is a 1972 Harley-Davidson FLH1200 Shovelhead, offered as a running project/base bike. The seller confirms the engine starts and runs. It has a 4-speed frame, hydraulic rear drum brake, front and rear spoke wheels, and FL-style fenders for a classic vintage Harley look. The bike is unregistered in Japan (no shaken/inspection) and is sold as-is, suitable either to ride in current condition or as a restoration/custom base. VIN is 2A37662H2. Per the seller's own inspection checklist: front/rear tires are cracked and recommended for replacement, the drive chain is recommended for replacement due to age, there is slight engine oil seepage, the front brake works but an overhaul is recommended, the taillight brake light does not respond, the speedometer face is faded/illegible, the battery is new but the wrong physical size for the mount, and there are no turn signals fitted. Frame is visually straight with no distortion, tank and seat are in good condition, fenders show some paint chipping. Mileage is not verified/unknown.

Seller marks the overall condition as 'scratches and dirt present' and this is an as-is project bike consistent with its age. Noted issues include cracked tires needing replacement, slight engine oil seepage, a front brake recommended for overhaul, a non-responsive rear brake light, a faded/illegible speedometer face, and no turn signals installed.

Shipping: The seller offers direct pickup by appointment, or delivery via land transport to the BAS Ogaki or Komaki depot for an additional 5,000 yen (tax excluded) handling fee, with home delivery quoted separately on request. If the vehicle is not handed over in person, registration documents are shipped cash-on-delivery (chakubarai) to the buyer.

Ships from Gifu, Gifu, Japan, to our Osaka warehouse and on to Pomona.
