DescriptionFor more on the eBay auction please call Brent @ 512-422-0761!!

Are you looking for a classic-but-customized Evo-era Harley-Davidson that needs only a little time & attention?  Do you have the know-how, time, & ability to invest in this Heritage Softail Classic (by birth if not looks) to turn a *VALUE BUY* Project Bike into a Great Deal?  We're selling this 1986 FLSTC As-Is for the two or three Areas Requiring Attention noted under the sections labeled "Mechanical" and "Exterior," and hope this '86 Harley will find its way to a new owner that can provide some maintenance & TLC.  So, is that you?  Well...

Get ready to get started today!  Don't miss out... BID HIGH & WITH CONFIDENCE ON eBAY or call Brent directly @ (512) 422-0761!  Very reasonable shipping rates are available to assist with your purchase, and we can have your bike delivered right to your door.  We ALSO offer financing for people with Good, Bad, or No Credit - at Cowboy Harley, Everyone Rides!

Again, for more on the eBay listing (or CraigsList posting) please call Brent @ (512) 422-0761.  Thanks for looking, and Ride Safe, 

At our dealership we work very hard to accurately describe our vehicles through text descriptions and elaborate photos. When you purchase a pre-owned vehicle it is not a new vehicle. Any used vehicle can have normal wear and blemishes. Before placing a bid please read the descriptions thoroughly and view all pictures. PLEASE NOTE: Both Genuine H-D and aftermarket Parts & Accessories shown in pictures of a vehicle may have been removed or changed since the pictures were originally taken; be certain to doublecheck with your salesperson the presence and condition of any accessories prior to finalizing a deal!

Included Standard Equipment
Interior
  • Seats in very good condition
Exterior
  • Exterior in good condition
  • Fully Detailed - We had this '86-model Harley-Davidson fully-detailed prior to picture-taking and can have it cleaned again before either shipping or in-person pick-up.
  • Glossy Paint - Apparently garage-kept, this custom-painted (the original factory color by V.I.N. was "two-tone Signal Red & Creme" - appears the previous owner tried to stick with the dominant primary color) Evo-era Harley sports paint that is still glossy and largely free of both scratches & swirls!
  • Little Visible Rust - And overall we'd consider this 1986 Harley-Davidson FLSTC (it's a "Heritage Softail Classic" by V.I.N. if not appearance) to be in Good condition cosmetically, particularly in light of age. We will be selling it *As-Is* as an *EASY PROJECT BIKE* for the reason(s) noted in the separate section labeled "Mechanical," but from a cosmetic standpoint it's entirely solid. On the negative side of the ledger the bike's been dropped at least once in its life on the right-hand side (see scratched pipes in the pics), the rear fender/seat nut screw is missing, there's some peeled chrome on the handlebar risers, and (consistent with age) the black on the motor's exterior has lost some of its finish. On the positive side of things the motorcycle has received extensive customization, including the unique handlebars & grips, a forward control kit, a two-up Le Pera leather seat, side mount license plate, and quite a bit of added chrome - inner/outer primary & swingarm, for example. Please review the pictures carefully or, better yet, call Brent @ 512-422-0761 to come take a first-hand look!
  • No Visible Dents
Mechanical
  • (Almost) Starts Right Up - We're selling this 1986 Harley-Davidson FLSTC (it's a "Heritage Softail Classic" by V.I.N. if not appearance) as an *As Is-Without Warranty* *EASY PROJECT BIKE* for two mechanical reasons: 1. Although the prior owner RODE the motorcycle here to be traded-in he was upfront about having had issues with the starter motor - still accepted the trade, and not long thereafter we went to start this '86 Evo and the starter engaged & would not "let go." We quickly shut off the ignition switch & disconnected the battery to prevent future damage - might need a new starter motor, or perhaps the buyer knows another fix? And; 2. Like many Evo-era Harley-Davidson this one WILL "mark its territory" just a bit, leaving a dime-sized spot of oil from underneath the crankcase after it's been sitting for a while. If you'd like to set up your own personal inspection prior to bidding or purchase please call Brent @ 512-422-0761!
  • Be sure to note the addition by the previous owner of both a Kuryakyn Hypercharger-style air intake and aftermarket exhaust system of unknown make!
  • Factory Engine - - the Motor Company's bulletproof Evolution engine! - Displacement:1338cc (81.64 cubic inches); Engine Type: V-twin, 4-stroke; Power: 60.0 HP @ 5,000 RPM; Torque: 76.7 ft.-lbs. @ 3,000 RPM; Top speed: roughly 93.2 MPH; Valves Per Cylinder: 2; Cooling System:Air; Gearbox: 5-speed; Transmission Type, Final Drive: Belt
  • This '86 Harley features a newly-dealer-installed battery.
History
  • Garage Kept - Still-glossy paint with next to no sun-fading!
  • In State Title - Clear Texas title!
  • Michelin Commander motorcycle tire on the Front, due for replacement for tread depth/tread wear reasons - Dunlop bike rubber on the Rear, in good shape with greater than 3/4 of the the tread life left. Also, please be sure to note that this sale is of an *As Is-No Warranty* *EASY PROJECT BIKE* for the reason(s) noted under the section labeled "Mechanical." For any questions, please call Brent @ 512-422-0761.
  • One barrel key is included with the purchase. Besides, you've got a garage, right?
  • Please note that while the odometer reads 13,287 this mileage reading seems highly unlikely for a motorcycle of this age. Either way, due to that age this bike is considered "TMU" / True Miles Unknown / or mileage-exempt, depending upon the phrase you choose to use.
  • There has been only one Safety Campaign/recall on this Year / Model of Harley-Davidson and it was performed in March, 1989 - documentation available if requested by calling Brent @ 512-422-0761.
