Description from the seller
Unique Opportunity: Technically New Harley-Davidson FLH 1200 Electra Glide (Only 2,925 km after a Full High-End Restoration!)
Are you looking for the ultimate American icon, but want the reliability and riding pleasure of a brand-new machine? Look no further. This legendary Harley-Davidson FLH 1200 Electra Glide is not just restored; it has been rebuilt from the ground up with unparalleled attention to detail.
The odometer reads only 2,925 kilometers, reflecting the actual distance this machine has traveled since its total metamorphosis. Every component has been addressed, renewed or refurbished. This is a motorcycle in absolute concours-condition, ready for the road or as a centerpiece in a collection.
Highlights & Technical details:
• Engine & Transmission: The iconic 1200cc Shovelhead V-twin and the gearbox are fully professionally rebuilt. It runs, shifts and sounds as if it rolled off the factory yesterday.
• Chassis & Wear Parts: Everything has been renewed. Think of all bearings, rubbers, cables, and vital wear parts. No expense spared.
• Condition: Visually and technically in absolute new condition. No maintenance backlog—just perfection.
Why this unit?
The FLH 1200 Electra Glide is the king of the American highway. Units in this condition—where virtually every bolt and nut has been checked and renewed—are almost impossible to find on the international market. This is a unique opportunity to invest in a value-retaining classic that rides as if it were brand new.
The motorcycle has been carefully bedded in after the rebuild (2,925 km) and operates flawlessly. Ready for its new owner.
Place your bid and become the owner of this reborn American legend!

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
