A old 1976 FLH I picked-up today, need lots of TLC but I think it has potential. Like paint and the missing parts to return it to it's glory days. The bike came with front batwing, front and rear bumpers, brackets to mount the hardbags, and the hardbags. 49K for mileage.

What do you think?

Good looking scooter. Looks like it has been taken care of and no road rash. You should have lots of fun with it. Congrats.

Nice! That is clean. I had a '78 FLH police bike, with the solo saddle on springs. Sure wish I still had it!

Thanks Guys, I knew you could appreciate a good find. The bike looks good from 30 ft. away but is rideable. If I ever finish the truck this is next. Ross, this bike brings back memories for me too when I had a new 1981 FLH.

Now that baby is sweet! 76 Harley! Friend of mine had one of those back in the day. Nice bike. HillBilly Bob, I know what ya mean! Rode down to Key West a couple of years ago, had several people scare the crap outta me on the trip down. One little old lady in perticular down around St. Augustine! Pulled out in front of me, then stopped dead still, I swerved over in the other lane, she then pulled in to that lane too but by then I was past her! I don't know how she didn't see someone as big as me and that bike of mine! LOL
