1979 Harley Davidson Shovelhead FLH Revitalization Stage 1 HD 1080p

Today is the day that parts start coming off! The 1979 is under the knife and starting its revitalization process. With camera issues I did lose some video. Between batteries giving up and the memory card losing data, a portion of the tank removal process was lost. Don't worry, I spilled fuel on the floor and made a mess!!

I have a 61 pan no signals. Using hand signals can be a bit of a challenge sometimes with the clutch and throttle. The pan looks nice without it but if you can keep it looking stockish probably won’t look bad. Good looking bike.

Thanks for the reply! I have a 60 Pan without signals too. With this build, I’ll be selling it so I’ll most likely leave the signals on it.

just left side signals

[@Rockeys_Chop_Shop]

Those are the important ones!

Zero turn signals or spot lights

[@Rockeys_Chop_Shop]

That’s my favorite clean look!

All bikes made after 1972 by law require turn signals, sorry to spoil the build.

[@Rockeys_Chop_Shop]

Not a spoiler at all. I figured there was a cut off on not having turn signals just wasn’t sure of that date.

A crappy bike then still a crappy bike, we motorcycle riders have moved on to Adventure bikes more fun less BS

[@Rockeys_Chop_Shop]

I’ve looked at quite a few adventure bikes just haven’t decided which way to go. What do you ride? What suggestions do you have for a person that would be just getting into adventure bikes? Brands or models to buy and which ones to stay away from.
