Hey Matt, Good looking 48' I also have a restored 48' in the 7800's. I wondered about the solo seat Rosette colors. I have a Heather's solo seat with Red bottom, yellow top and I have been told it is wrong by others. Do you think the Green, yellow on this one is correct? It has been hard to find supporting documents. I currently ride it with a buddy seat and it is large yellow only. Also I was told the neck key lock on the 48' did not have the stainless cover. Mine looks just like yours. I also have the neck boss but mine has been drilled with no pin. Thanks.

Thanks for the comment. I think the solo seats had yellow and green rosettes in 47 and 48. The bike has a new made skirt in the video. Yellow rosettes are correct for buddy seat. 55 was first year of stainless neck cover and all replacement kits that I know of are the 55 to 65 variant

Watching your video takes me back to my days of my FL I bought from a city auction back in 1962. My Harley was a retired San Francisco city cop bike, a 1959. My grandpa and I traveled to San Francisco just for the purchase of three bikes. These bikes were well maintained and low miles for the bread. We brought these bikes back home and restored them back to stock. Had to sign a document that directed us to remove all law enforcement equipment off the bikes. Strict folks back then. All the bikes were repainted and cleaned up. My grandpa sold one and he kept one for himself. I got the best of the heard and rode that bike through high school up until I got drafted and ended up in Vietnam. After my educational program via Nam, when I come home I and my grandpa cleaned up my bike and he and I became road Gypsies for a year. For money he and I would pull odd jobs while traveling. That period of time was my best therapy from war crap rolling around in my soul. My grandma was a very wise man. He knew exactly what I needed to clear my soul and head. He served two wars himself. As a kid he got up in the first one as a courier, rode Harleys to the front lines with messages. And also in the 2nd did the same with General Pattons Armored Division. Those two Harleys were the best. Never left us walking. Plus it helped we both knew how to turn a wrench. Your Hollywood green looked the same as mine between those years. Later, about 1974 my Harley got stolen by some clown. The CHP, found my bike in Oakland, California some 400 miles away at some bike shop. Never got it back. Sad to lose my good friend the Harley and my grandpa that same year. Thanks for your time.

Dean, thank you for your comment, story and service. This is the most thoughtful and well spoken comment ive ever had on any of our KZbin videos . I saw a 59 fl for sale in Missouri online it looked like a great bike. I have a 58 that I hold very close to my heart. If you're ever in South Dakota swing by and you can take it for a spin.

@@carlscyclesupply I love the finished bike content too. Knuckles and Pans as it takes a lot to keep them running. The walk thrus are very cool when the bike is all done and you see it all finished and learn about it, plus we see it start run and drive. There are so few experts like you guys in the repairing/restoring business so anything we can learn about how to fix, or what goes wrong frequently, cool hacks you've learned, or things to look out for would all help us gain from your wrenching experience. This could be from engine, to tranny to frame and basically everything you do when you restore. Tips on what to look for at swap meets and how to ID and determine different cases, years, and spotting case damage and what it will take to fix is something I don't see many other You Tubers offering either. Thank you and keep up the great content.

Finally!! A proper kickstart. So many people kick their bikes from a standing position and awkwardly crossing the right leg over the body, and hoist up and push down. 🤦🏻♂️ Sit on the bike. Push the kicker until you feel the combustion stroke, then hoist yourself upward and push downward on the kicker! All the direct downward energy is perfectly positioned to start the bike and more importantly, your ankle, knee, and achilles tendon will thank you😂🎉
