Thank you both for the two responses. Ideally original paint and untouched. However, I will consider other 1956 Panheads as long as they are in Stock/Factory style. I’m only looking for the model year 1956. That 1957 on Facebook is a good looking motorcycle in a color scheme I don’t see too often. Thank you

bmendoza3,

I'll private message you regarding a 1956.

And keep in mind that '56 isn't a big production year so good examples are thin on the ground.

Happy Friday. Thank you Duke for the private message; I will open it next.

Thank you Rubone for your message. I know I don’t see many 1956 Panhead motorcycles out and about or for sale. Thank you for explaining the low production quantity for 1956.

Yes 1953 to 1957 are all low number. I have a friend looking for a 54 FL and they are practically extinct.

There was a major worldwide recession in the mid '50s leading to the demise of many motorcycle manufacturers and automobile companies.It just about killed the British industry as well as many German companies. H-D hung on primarily by commercial sales.

Howard Belmont the longtime St Paul Minnesota dealer also attributed it all the WW2 veterans settling down and also the English bike invasion.
