Can you find out the model of a Harley Davidson motorcycle with the serial number?
Prior to 1961On Harley models prior to 1961, the engine number acts as the VIN. This number can be found on the left side engine case. Harley models produced prior to 1969 do not carry any frame number.VIN Numbering Conventions:First two numbers are the model year.Letters (up to four) are the model designation.The last numbers are the production run number.1962 - 1969VIN Numbering Conventions:First two numbers are the model year.Letters (2-4) are the model designation.The last numbers are the production run number.In addition, models with 4 digit production numbers have an even-numbered first digit for even years, odd for odd years.Models containing a 5 digit production number will have the first two digits even for even years, odd for odd years.Why is this important? If the VIN does not follow this even or odd numbering sequence, you can almost guarantee that the VIN has been altered. It is extremely common to find mismatched engines in these early bikes with different VIN numbers than the title paperwork.1970 - 1980Beginning in 1970, Harley started stamping VIN numbers on both the frame and engine case. The exception as noted by our friends at Cyborg Cycles, is the 1979 model. This exception is discussed below.First two numbers are the model code.Next 5 digits, position 3-7 is the production run number.The last 2 digits designate the year.The only legal VIN number for Harley's produced after 1970 is on the frame. NO EXCEPTION! It doesn't matter if the engine case number matches your registration papers, if the frame VIN doesn't match the registration you have a problem! You might be able to fool a few cops or even someone at the DMV, but don't count on it. In addition, it should go without saying that any alteration to the VIN is illegal. This goes for restamping frames or adding the original VIN to a replacement frame. If you replace the frame, you need to have a new VIN assigned to your Harley.Always remember that on models built after 1970, the Harley VIN always follows the frame... not the engine!The infamous 1979 ExceptionDuring the 1979 model run, some Harley's were produced with engine numbers that did not match the frame number. The production date is reported to be from 1/9/79 - 2/7/79, and the frame VIN's affected are 43000H9 through 48199H9. These models had engines numbered with a separate "crankcase number" instead of the frame's VIN. This engine number is reported to be a ten digit numeric ID. Rumor has it that Harley went back to the old numbering sequence once the legal ramifications were realized. Regardless of the engine case number, the title must always match the frame VIN.Thanks to Cyborg Cycles for this information.1981 -2000Beginning in 1981, Harley started using a 17 digit VIN number on the frame and an abbreviated VIN on the engine case. As always, the legal title must match the VIN number on the frame. If the title and frame VIN reads 1HD1ELK12BZ123456, the engine case number should read something like ELKB123456. VIN number rules described under the 1970 - 1980 Harley models also apply here.Harley VIN Model Year DesignationsPrior to 1970 the model year appeared in the last 2 digits of the Harley VIN. From 1970 to 1980 Harley used an alphanumeric year code. The code "H" is followed by the last number of the year (i.e. 1971= H1, 1972= H2). The exception is 1980 which was J0. 1981 to 2000 model big twinsSingle letter in the 10th digit designates the model year.1981 - B 1986 - G 1991 - M 1996 - T 1982 - C 1987 - H 1992 - N 1997 - V 1983 - D 1988 - J 1993 - P 1998 - W 1984 - E 1989 - K 1994 - R 1999 - X 1985 - F 1990 - L 1995 - S 2000 - YHarley VIN Model CodesBig TwinsAs if things weren't confusing enough, Big Twin's have a different set of model designations in the Harley VIN depending on whether they are a 4 speed or 5 speed model.1970 thru 1980 4 Speed Big TwinThe first 2 digits of the Harley big twin's VIN digits are the model code.1A = FL/FLP 1200 2F = FXS 1200 5H = FLHS - 80 7H = FLH 1200 Police 1H = FXB - 80 2H = CLE - 80 6E = FXEF - 80 8H = FLH 1200 Shrine 1K = FLH - 80 shrine 3G = FLH - 80 6G = FXE - 80 9D = FXE 1200 2A = FLH 1200 3H = FLH - 80 Classic 6H = FL - 80 9G = FXWG - 80 2C = FX 1200 5E = FXEF 1200 7G = FXS - 80 9H = FLH - 80 PoliceExample: 3G12345H1 is an FLH1980 5 Speed Big TwinHarley 1980 5 Speed's used code 5G1981 thru 1985 4 Speed Big TwinThe 5th and 6th digits designate the model code.AA = FLH - 80 AL = FLH - 80 BE = FXWG - 80 AB = 80 police chain BA = FXE - 80 BF = FXSB - 80 AC = FLH - 80 Shrine chain BB = FXEF - 80 BH = FXST AH = FLHP - 80 Police Belt BC = FXS - 80 BG = FXDG - 80 AK = FLHS - 80 BD = FXB - 80 BK = FXSTCExample: 1HD1BEK11BY123456 is a FXWG1981 5 Speed Harley Big TwinThe 5th and 6th digits designate the model code.AE= FLT AF= FLTCExample: 1HD1AFK11BY123456 is a FLTC1982 thru 2002 5 Speed Big TwinsThe 5th and 6th digits designate the model code.BH = FXST DJ = FLHTC FE = FLTCU-I BJ = FLSTC DK = FLTC Shrine FF = FLHTC-I BK = FXSTC DM = FLTCU FG = FLHTCU-I W/SC BL = FXSTS DP = FLHTCU FH = FLHP-I Police BM = FLSTF EA = FXR FJ = FLHP Police BN = FLSTN EB = FXRS FL = FLHTCU-I Shrine BP = FXSTSB EC = FXRT FM = FLHTP-I Police BR = FLSTS ED = FXRP Police windshield FP = FLTR BS = FXSTD EF = FXRP Police Fairing FR = FLHRC-I BT = FXSTB EG = FXRS-SP FS = FLTR-I DA = FLT 82 - 83 EH = FXRD FT = FLHPE-I (California) DA = FLHTP Police Windshield EJ = FXRC GA = FXDB-D DB = FLTC EK = FXRP Police C.H.P.

Did an 85 harley wide glide come stock with a 4 speed?
No 85 is the 1st year for the 5 speed tranny. 84 is the 1st year for the Evo and the last year for the 4 speed and kicker.Whoever left this answer is DEAD WRONG! I own a stock 1985 Harley Wide glide he is correct that the first year for evo was 84 but The 1985 Wide Glide was stock with a 4 speed with the kick start. It also had the push button start but there was still a kick start on them standard. 1985 WAS the last year for the kick start on the Wide Glide models and the end of the kick start was the end of the 4 speeds as well.O.K., calm down - no need to get excited about this!! We're just trying to share some information,some good - some not so.... you can call me Don.I am an original owner of a 1984 FXSB Low rider which is designated by the VIN as a "special early" model.It was the last of the Shovelhead 80 inch engines with the 4 speed transmission.In Mid 1984,HD released the soft tail model which featured the Evo engine.My best friend Neal(RIP) bought a new 1985 FXWG and we rode from East coast to West coast USA (and back)in 1988 when we were both on ACTIVE DUTY in the U.S. Marine Corps and I'm here to tell you,that 85 Wide Glide had a 4 speed transmission with kick AND electric starter!!I'll also tell you that it was much harder to kick start than my Low Rider,I discovered the hard way (of course).1982 FXR/FXRS Super Glide® II with its rubber-isolated, five-speed powertrain and the welded and stamped frame for the new Sportster® models.
