GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this custom 1948 Harley Davidson FLH Panhead Chopper for your consideration. This stunning custom bike features a striking Candy Purple Metallic finish that truly sets it apart from the crowd. Powering this one-of-a-kind chopper is a powerful 1200cc Panhead V-twin engine, mated to a smooth 4-speed transmission. The front end boasts a custom hand-built design with 39mm forks, 8 inches over, featuring shaved lowers and polished finishes, crafted by the Detroit Garage Wrench. The frame is a classic 1970 single down tube Denver's chopper frame, and the meticulous paintwork was completed by Chop Docs and Poor Star, while the custom seat by Turners Cycle is adorned in high-quality barebones leather. The pinstriping, done by Ryan from Counts Customs in Las Vegas, adds the finishing touch to this masterpiece. This chopper is truly a full frame-off restoration and a testament to American craftsmanship. Ride this one out of our showroom or have us assist with shipping it to you anywhere in the United States! Don't hesitate to call us with any questions or for more information.
