Seven Rare Harleys to Hit the Auction Block
April 16th, 2008 by BallerRide 2 Comments
At the upcoming Legend of the Motorcycle Concours d’Elegance on May 3rd, seven collectible Harley bikes will go up for auction. Of the seven, six are motorbikes from the museum collection of the Santa Cruz Harley-Davidson dealership in California. The other is a rare 1918 Schwinn-looking Harley-Davidson bicycle that was marketed for only a short period of time.
According to MotorcycleUSA, “the Harley motorbikes, which have been on view at the dealership’s museum, include: 1929 JDH - at the time, the fastest road bike Harley offered to the public; 1930 VL with sidecar - found in Chile and now beautifully restored; 1941 EL; 1947 WL; 1967 FLH; and 1978 XLH.”
The auction will take place at the ocean-side Ritz-Carlton in Half Moon Bay, California and is being hosted by Bonhams & Butterfields.
