    Man I WISH I had Harley’s laying around I could “ forget “ about. I got my first bike 3 years ago not running that had sat outside for 5 years.. a metric cruiser Yamaha . I got it running and learned everything I possibly could about the bike and taught myself to ride. Dying for my first Harley though that I can chop… just can’t afford to get one unfortunately . Hopefully some day soon!

    Why would you take a number matching wide glide and take the trans out of it just to put in another scooter? Just lost value Hippie, really and 84’ is the official year of the introduction of the Evo, just saying cuz….hey not trying to argue bro, but I own a 84 shovel and I catch crap over articles and books such as Donnie Peterson saying it’s not the last year shovel.

    ol buddy i hate 2 be the one 2 correct you on this, but the first half of 84 the wide glides had shovel heads, in the middle of the year they started to install the evo motors,, in 1985 the wide glides name was changed to soft-tail but it was the exact same bike, no more shovel head motors were built after 84 and a half, the reason i know this is because i bought one bran new in first half of 84, last of the shovels, and now you know the rest of the story...

      Its only a softail if its a softail. Its a wide glide if it got a swing arm and shocks in the upright position. Thats the difference.

      @jamesbanjomanjohnson 3 місяці тому

      @@troyangel7973 you are 100 percent right , and yes i do know the difference, the soft-tail replaced the wide glide in the fact that it looked like a hard-tail and they did not sell very many wide glides after that because of the looks, the swingarm bikes were kind of out dated after that and sales dropped way off, the soft tail took on the wide glide front end there 4 the wide glide faded into the past, also in 85 the 5 speed tranny became standard i think, you can correct me on this if im wrong, latter on...
