TR's Pristine 1974 FLH Electra Glide

1974 Mostly original. Has a mild cam, electronic ignition and S&S carb.

That's by far the best sounding old shovelhead I've heard in a long long time. It's also the cleanest!

[@stillbill6408]

Love all the AMF era tank graphics. 5 speed transmission was first introduced in 1980 on the rubber mounted FLT Tour Glide chassis.

[@sandragibbs3934]

That's the way they looked when I was a kid....made me purchase a Road King because of it!

[@alansmith231]

In 1974 I was 15 and this was the bike that made me fall in love with harleys.

[@JamesCarter-ii4up]

Same here. As a kid in the 70s...FLH Electra Glide is 👑 of the highway... I love them all...

[@michaeldelio1870]

Hi Vincent, I am the world's best detailer, however, I may have to pass my crown to you. Beutiful job with that classic. I have a 98 electra glide I purchased used with 152000 miles. I detailed that for days. I now love these bagger bikes. I cant own one like yours because I don't have the mechanical skills to take care of it, so I enjoy looking at your immaculate bike.🙂

She is a real beauty.

[@JJosephS1]

Beautiful motorcycle. Amazing.

[@andrewholden6347]

I like the windscreen on the bike you can see through it and very close to the front of where you are traveling and I like the looks of it also

[@bm7760]

That's a sweet sounding motor. I'd have this all day long over my Twin Cam.

[@richardashwood5771]

I had a girlfriend in 77 who’s brother had the exact bike. It made my 75 Sportster look like a mini bike. I often wonder if he still has it. Looking at your bike brought back some good memories.

[@joechavez4494]

These machines are awesome. I have a 1985 Electra glide almost original besides the paint n some chrome stuff. It do wonders.

[@robertrodriguez2412]

Man! It has so much character. Simple but mighty classy. Might paint my road kind lime that!

[@oldskool2044]

superclean and supercool FLH 👌🤘

[@scottortiz8274]

That is one gorgeous sled my brotha,. Be safe and keep the rubber side down....

[@juansantoyo7401]

Fabulosa

[@johnbochinis1794]

Love the bike!

[@59jaguar]

You guys do nice work.

[@vincentlawler3033]

Thanks Roger.

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

I had a 1975FLHP. That is one sweet looking machine 🖖🏼👍🏼😎 Yeah I remember the alarm I think my bike came with it or the previous owner gave it to me I got my bike from a woman and she would ride her husband around. Mine had a Bendix carburetor I always liked it when I was really really cold out it would get frost , on it cause some problems but other than that Bendix made good carburetors

[@PaulP999]

We have very different ideas of what is "all original" - so apart from the seat, levers, blue dots, oil cooler, cruiser pegs, extra lights, ignition.....still lovely though. Wouldn't call Cycle Guard alarm "foolproof", they mostly shook to bits, got quieter and quieter and could be killed by squirting stuff through the vents - Harley only fitted them for a couple of years I recall. Something doesn't sound quite right with the engine, that whine worries me, maybe it is the recording device creating it but I'd get a proven expert to ride her. As nice as that tank design is I do prefer the 1973 "zebra crossing" design, especially a black tank with the red, white and blue bars.

[@Road_Rash]

Nice looking bike...I've had a '74 Trouble head, I prefer my twin cam...nicely restored bike though...

[@shovelhead1871]

love it!

[@guyseabrook3735]

Nose cone Shovel. Best looking motor Harley ever made after the Knuckle.

[@Daddy-1975]

Magnifique machine

[@robertjeffery6100]

The last of Real Harley Davidson’s

[@semperfipar1299]

[@30pvfd]

Nice very nice

[@petersmith4202]

[@jdcastillocastillo3492]

nice!!!!!!!!!!

[@marketsqueezer]

Have a 1971 FLH Electra Glide very close to original, today a very rear bike...

[@jeffreylonigro1382]

Wow...he rode that at least a couple miles and nothing rattled off. Amazing!

[@billmago7991]

Love my shovel

[@brushcountry6361]

Nice

[@theodoreko2700]

That funny the alarm came on my 75 super glide never seen on early models and the oil cooler was never stock that was after product.The chrome control wasn’t stock that I know because mine never had it either.

[@cheeptrick5464]

I know. Everything's original except.................................

[@MadKingJorge]

Last of the real potatoes.

[@davidson2004fatboy]

👍👌🙏💖😎WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE to HEAR a FINAL REPORT AFTER RIDE.😒🤔

[@vincentlawler3033]

Meant to Bill. but ran out of camera battery. Short version: bike ran great, not as much vibration as you might expect. Stock 74 inch motor with a mild cam will tool around at 70 all day but it’s a wee bit of a lazy dog upstairs.

[@angusmcpherson]

@@vincentlawler3033 not enough passing power? Top gear roll-on needs a little help perhaps. Looked like a smooth ride and rock-steady.

[@ricardobooker1704]

What is the winning noise is it the alternator?

[@johntramburg3278]

Gear drive for the cam is on the tight end of the tolerance.

[@ricardobooker1704]

Were you able to modify the mufflers for louder sound? If so are you happy with the result.

[@lignow9762]

Nice bike - stupid driver at 6:19 down shift

[@leroygrasso1589]

TR how can i reach you

[@SuperLou63]

Is that Mustang seat original too?? LOL

[@randalmontgomery4595]

Shows you don't need more than 74 CID for normal riding.

[@enricomandragona163]

S&S carbs can't fit behind the Stock Air cleaner!!

[@enricomandragona163]

BS!! The back brakes aren't disk!!S/W never made gauges for Harley!!

[@robertlongley5731]

Original? With all these changes.? Get real

[@MorsDengse]

Hahahaha ... the only original here is the presenter ...
