Nicest restored bike I’ve ridden. Absolutely stunning and rides as good as it looks. Not currently for sale unless you really want to lay your nuts on the table. This is as good as it gets.
I have guns like this. We don't own these things. We are curators that have been blessed with the responsibility of keeping them. Outf*ckingstanding. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Amazing. Even being on a video, as soon as you turned that engine over it was painfully obvious how healthy it is. Has to be one of the best sounding pans I've heard.
You are one extremely lucky man to have such a beautiful bike. Sounds great. The color is perfect! Really like the nod to Benmy with the rear mud flap. That one is definitely a keeper. NEVER sell it and thank you for sharing.
You have a very special bike !! Don't ever get rid of it !! I'm only into your video for 3 minutes and had to stop to write this. Can't wait to see the rest. Wish I could see the bike in person......and even be able to ride it. I have a 1983 FXRT shovelhead I just gave to my son, so know what it's like to have something "" special "". Take care of it and enjoy. Thank you.
I absolutely love the old knuckleheads, panheads and even shovelheads because I'm a nostalgia nut. I wish to hell Harley would pick a 40's model, tool up and manufacture new reproductions of them.
What a wonderful bike! To be able to point at a part and say with perfect confidence, “oh yeah, that part came out of the factory on THIS bike. I’d never sell it. My first Harley was a ‘57 Pan basket case that I kind of inherited in 1963. Still my favorite, 29 Harleys later I with I still had it.
Beauty of a bike. Around 1988 I purchased a 1981 AMF FLH off a guy who had an all original 48 with a side car. Blue. In my opinion , beautiful shape. He was getting ready to tear it down & re-do it. (that is why he sold me the FLH = needed the $$$) I would of left it as is. The guy was a finnatic (I mean that in a good way). As we completed the transaction, it started drizzling & he was complaining because I was going to ride the FLH home in the rain.
Hey there Joe , as usual P - R - I - M - O ride ....... You are becoming an historian a n d caretaker of vintage Harley - Davidsons. i am selling off a 2002 Electra Glide for a future purchase of an older Harley . I like the new stuff but am not impressed at all with how they feel and sound. People as nice and sincere as yourself have inspired me to own and become a caretaker of a sweetheart of an FL and ,yes, it is as good as it gets for a 1948. Thank you for taking the time to show it off . I LOVE IT !! AWESOME .......
That is one sweet ass bike. I have been starting to look for a '48 Panhead to buy and restore. You did an incredible job. I had to roll it back just to hear that engine one more time.
Dude you are so very lucky to have that hog .Man it's bad to the bone .And it sounds like it wants to go for a spin around the hood. Awesome ,stay safe ride forever.
That's one sweet a$$$ bike. It looks beautiful and sounds great. I have a 1953 panhead that's about 90 percent original and the same color red. It's starting to show her age and be riding her since 1996. Keep her up right and ride safely and keep your knees in the breeze.🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🤟🤟
Wow congrats on your absolutely amazing bike .. My dad has a 48 pan in his basement in boxes it's still has the original blue green paint ..... Some day I'm going to put her back on the road.. I really appreciate seeing your bike.... Thanks for the video😊
My dream bike! I was born in '48. I've owned a ; 1967, 1955 and a 1949...but I've always wanted a '48 Panhead, I'd even take one with the side shifter and leave it that way.
We could just start throwing numbers out there 😂 I'm gonna guess around 40 to 50 grand. Talk about period correct and all original,that's why she's so expensive
So, 12 months later, Have you still got the bike and would you now consider selling it soon ??. It's just what I'm looking for to ride and enjoy, a 60th B-day present to myself. How bout it.
No leaks? Always thought mine was suppose to leak, always has since new in 49. Speedometer and surroundings suppose to be painted red? Mine is all chrome but not sure if that was just an option.
