Jeremiah: "You are looking at a "period perfect" 1968 FL 74" Generator Shovelhead with matching engine cases. The motor is equipped with an S&S Super E carburetor with chrome air cleaner removed for pics. Mallory ignition, High output 12-volt chrome generator, and dual plug heads. The motor runs very well and starts up easily, with a couple of kicks. The bike has a very early 4-speed transmission and a new BDL 1.5 belt drive."

Jeremiah: "The bike sits in a very early North Hollywood Paughco wishbone frame with stock rake and stretch. The springer forks are offset 1947-1948 repo with old 6" Z-bars with vintage grips.
