!973, That was the absolute worst year Harley(AMF) ever made. How many mile did you get on it before the bottom end fell out of it? That year was known for having parts actually fall off on the way home from the dealer.

That 72 is almost just like Robert Robb Sr.'s bike, RIP. If you are not familiar with him he was a motovlogger out of Bakersfield. He got pancreatic cancer which spread to his liver. He died last year from it. He was a lane splitting fool. You can still check out his videos. I miss him.

Its called 72 like highway 72 in California, aka Whittier Boulevard it was the big expressway before the 101 was built. Just a fun bit of information :) love this bike, great review!

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

OMG! You're totally right! Lol. I clearly didnt do my homework. I swear I read at one point the name was cause it's a throwback to the '72, but after checking your comment I did some research and I was way off. That makes it even cooler though imo. I'll set the record straight when I do my more thorough ride/review on the bike. Thanks for watching and sharing that cool history on the moto! Ride safe! 😎🤘

Even the forward controls in city is useless always legs up and down 100times per hour lol and the left foot pags is 1 inch shorter from the frame then the right one what a joke! On all dynas with forward controls. Bulshit. ..

I would put a 19 inch front tire and wider forks if I could the remainder is very nice. And you gave a nice walk around on it. So what do you call this? Flipping bikes instead of flipping houses? You should write a book. I would love to have a garage full of bikes.
