Plastic bike model assembly kit

[Founder of Factory Chopper, 1975 model of super glide]
Harley-Davidson produced many types of motorcycles, including the big machines in the big machine called the King of Motorcycles, the FLH1200 and FLH80 Classics, in the 1970s. Above all, the top model of the company's sports type was the FXE 1200 super glide. Super Glide, which began production in 1971, is equipped with an air-cooled 4-stroke OHV / V-twin 1207 cc engine called the "excavator head" common with the FLH1200. Also, the frame is basically the same double cradle type as FLH. The thin front forks, wire spoke wheels and headlights, on the other hand, are based on the nimble parts of the XL sports star. The Super Glide, which opened up the genre of sports touring, was manufactured until 1978 and became the roots of the manufacturer's custom style "factory chopper". The 1977 FXS Lowrider, which gained worldwide popularity, and the FXDB Dyna Stagis of 1991, took over as the founder of the current Harley line-up family, and its lineage has been handed down.
