Tamiya 16037 1/6 Harley-Davidson FLH Classic Black Version

The FLH Classic was the top model in the line-up of the world-renowned Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Company. It debuted in 1979 and was based upon the FLH 1200 Electra Glide. The bike featured upgrades to various parts to make it a deluxe model, and it retained a classic design including the coloring choices. It used a ‘Shovelhead’ engine, so named on account of the shape of its rocker covers. At the time, the air-cooled V2 engine could claim to be among the largest in the motorcycle world with a displacement of 1340cc. The bike was 2.4m in length and weighed some 340kg in all, cutting a majestic figure worthy of being called the ‘King of motorcycles’.
