For sale $7,500.00 – Very clean 1997 Harley-Davidson Road King with only 12,500 original miles! It is customized to look just like a 1972 AMF Electra Glide, like the one my Dad had when I was 8 years old. Everything you can imagine and more! Comes with 3 Seat options: Single and passenger with or without tour pack. No Scratches dings or dents. No oxidation or corrosion. Runs and Rides Great. Clean Title in Hand.

For 1997, all of Harley touring bikes have a redesigned frame that drops saddle height by an inch. The reshaped seat also makes it easier to touch the ground. A restyled saddle, with a new foam and shape, is narrower at the front to make it easier to reach the ground. The electrical system was revamped with a bigger 30-amp-hour battery, which gives it a 50 percent greater capacity, and a more convenient fuse box location under the left side cover.

Otherwise, the machine is the same basic platform familiar to FLH fans. The 1340cc air-cooled V-twin employs pushrods and fiddle-free hydraulic lifters to operate its two valves per cylinder. Dual mufflers handle spent gases. A five-speed gearbox delivers power to the quiet, smooth, clean, low-maintenance belt final drive. Rear-end permit air-pressure adjustment for load changes. The nostalgic theme is furthered by a traditional wide tank (with a dummy cap housing the fuel gauge on the left side) and full fenders, complete with marker lights and bumpers, wrapped around chrome-spoked wheels with 16-inch tires decorated with narrow whitewalls. Distinctive Road King styling touches include the old-fashioned headlight nacelle and a pair of 30-watt spotlights, which Harley calls Passing Lamps.
