THE BEST ORIGINAL 1913 HARLEY DAVIDSON TWIN KNOWN For Sale

I HAVE OWNED THIS HISTORIC JEWEL SINCE 1984. I am the third owner since it left the factory when new. Sold new in Hamilton Ontario at "The Strand" The first owner sadly never returned from WW1. The engine was carefully rebuilt in the 1970’s by the second owner
a prominent collector and tool and die journeyman who wisely did not mess with the original patina. The bike runs strongly .
I have posted 2 videos on youtube which will attest to this. I used to take this bike to many AMCA meets where it invariably won every imaginable award. I only had it judged once where it took 99 points, one half point for the wrong colour of acetylene tubing ! and a half point for the wrong rear stand clip ( I have since discovered the judge was WRONG about this after foolishly changing the clip. I never had it judged again ! I can provide as many
detail photos as required. The bike is extremely interesting in that it has almost every conceivable period option . These include tank top tool box with a set of original tools, tire pump, acetylene lighting front and back
the front light equipped with a flint “starter” . Rare clip on foot boards and foot control. This option is correct but one I added over the years. Rare “tandem attachment” with handlebars ! Original unused correct size NOS "Weed" winter tire chain.
Period correct RARE crankcase sight glass. Correct super rare tank fuel gauge. Speedometer cable and drive although the main drive gear is not there. Period correct horn. Last 2 items not on the bike.
Original parts book and manual both in excellent shape. The engine has all matching numbers ( crankcases and cylinders) and even at this early date Harley stamped each side of the crankcase with
matching numbers. In the last few years I have sold 3 great bikes through this website which is why I am advertising here. The focus of my collection has changed to later bikes and I would be interested in a swap for
something of comparable value, or part exchange cash either way. I LIKE MUNCH MAMMOTHS, MV AGUSTAS, BROUGHS ETC. I am also interested in post vintage sports/ classic autos. LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SWAP .
Checkout the 2 videos I have on youtube of this bike at my channel which is 1929brough
The bike has also been featured in an issue of The Classic Motorcycle Magazine.
THIS IS THE BEST EXAMPLE OF A 1913 TWIN HARLEY IN THE WORLD !!
BETTER THAN THE HARLEY MUSEUM WHICH LIKE ALL THEIR EARLY MACHINES WAS INCORRECTLY REPAINTED IN THE 1950'S.
I have plenty of crating and shipping experience and am willing to send this anywhere.

Over time, this displacement advantage kept the older side valve technology ...
