    Paint options for '72 Big Twins were the same on both FL and FLH. The only differences are the compression ratio, camshaft, and primary gearing. Some Police departments (but not all!) preferred FLs for inner city service due to good low speed tractability. Most sidecar bikes were FLs. The same trim and accessory packages as well as options were available for both.
