Motorcycle Help Needed

[W. WIllie]

If she is cents/smart, she will wait till she returns and sell it.

My daughter inherited (along with her hubby) a 1959 Panhead Harley. The bike is complete, but there are enough parts for a second configuration. The bike is currently in storage in NH. The only pictures immediately available are less than wonderful, but I'm attaching them here.

She is moving to Korea for a couple of years starting in Feb. They need to dispose of this bike, but pricing it is being difficult. Can any of you folks suggest how to get it sold and how to get the best price? They want to have the eventual buyer pick it up in NH; they don't have time or cash to mess with it at this point.

Thanks.

If she is moving to Korea with the military, they will do long term storage for her at no cost and then, they can keep he pan head till their return. (Been there, done that. - Go, Air Force!)

Nope, she's moving there (with her web artist husband) because she likes the culture and the lifestyle in Seoul. She was there for 3 months last May-July, and loved the place. She came home healthier, physically and mentally, than she's been in some years. This time she's taking hubby and cats, and is setting out to master Korean (she has a little of it now). Because she has no college degree (and can't get one for medical reasons), that will allow her, she thinks, to get freelance employment as an editor and translator (she's a crackerjack editor). So she's clearing her decks here, including house and motorcycle and ten tons of general crap, and moving West to the Far East.

We're not thrilled. But she is doing this purposefully, and we support her. Helping her unload the Harley is one thing we can do.

Here are some additional photos of the bike. It was bought by the police in a small town in Alabama, and my daughter's late father in law bought it form them the same year (1959). Both front ends are included with the bike.View attachment 7212View attachment 7213View attachment 7214View attachment 7215

Some motorcycle shops will sell on consignment, might be worth looking into, and they don't have to be a Harley dealer either..
