58' FLH Hand Shift

[sieber60]

Can anyone tell me how many 58' Hand Shift FLH's were produced and any value opinions there are out there? This bike has been sitting for a long time (not original paint) and would need a fair amount of work. Has good VIN and line bore numbers.

Thanks
John

Hand shift 195 est. Hand Shift & Foot Shift are all FLH engine #

Thanks, duffeycycles,

Right, I understand about the numbers. I was just curious about how many Hand Shift bikes were produced. I didn't see where Palmer broke it down.
Still curious on value opinions.

Palmer doesn't because they are estimates not facts. All Duo Glides were low production years with far less sales with hand shift.

Okay.. Thank you!

I have a 64 hand shift. Though maybe a little bit more desirable for some I don’t think that makes it extremely more valuable. Too easy to convert a foot shift over and nothing was stamped in the vin to know either way.

[sieber60]

Agreed, Thank you for your input.
