1996 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Ultra Classic - $6,250
QR Code Link to This Post
This is a very nice, clean original/stock, low mileage, Mystique Green 1996 Electra Glide Ultra classic that I've owned for the past five years. This is the carbureted version, they're slightly more rare, less complicated and stone reliable. I bought this bike from the original owner's estate through a second hand shop in New Jersey in as-is condition with 34,440 miles and have only put about 700 miles on it since I bought it. I'm pretty sure that the original owner was an Irishman because he had a a shamrock airbrushed onto the front fairing. Nicely done, we've always referred to her as "The Shamrock Bike".
Since owning it, I rebuilt the carburetor, replaced the accelerator pump diaphragm, replaced the petcock, replaced the fuel lines and clamps and rebuilt the front RH brake caliper, replaced the trunk latches, all using original HD parts purchased from Ocean State Harley Davidson in Exeter, RI as well as installing a new HD tall windshield (I'm 6' 2"). I also had Ocean State Harley replace the fork seals. The Electra Glide runs and rides like a proper EVO should and I wouldn't hesitate to ride it cross country. It will need tires as they're fairly old, they were on my to do list. I also picked up a pair of original correct wires wheels that I was planning on sending out to Buchanans in California to be rechromed and relaced (I'm old school and prefer spokes).
When the previous owner bought the bike new, I think he ordered every accessory available in the catalogue at that time. All the accessories are in nice condition and will come with the bike.
The Electra Glide will come with the following original Harley Davidson parts and accessories:
Original front fender bumper
Original windshield
Original dash glove box
Original chrome front axle end caps
Original backrest
Original chrome headlight/spotlight brows
Original chrome rear tail light trim ring
Original chrome passenger foot rest covers
Original chrome transmission cover
Original owners manual
Original shop manual
New HD grips
New HD jiffy stand spring
New HD plug wires
New HD miscellaneous side cover grommets
Tool kit
Correct HD wire wheel rims and hubs
My hope is that someone who appreciates these bikes will buy it and continue to care for it as I have..... The good news is that in 4 years the bike will become eligible for AMCA competition.
While this bike is in really nice, clean, stock condition it is not perfect. They're are a couple of small knicks in the paint, some wear from the road on the front forks and some minor corrosion on the rear wheel and pulley. Nothing big but wanted to offer full disclosure. Take a look at the photos and you'll see how nice the bike is. The radio, cassette player works and I believe the CB radio works but I don't have a headset to confirm this. The cruise control works but when I rebuilt the carb, I left the cable disconnected (I've never been a fan of cruise control on a motorcycle). Super easy to reconnect the cable.
