Harley-Davidson WLA description
1942 Harley Davidson WLA Military Motorcycle. Type 7. This is destined to be a show piece in a collection or a museum display. Has zero miles on entire bike.
Engine is 42WLA699XX and is registered with the WLA Registry. Approximate registration number is USA6140996 The frame is original WLA and has the one year only 1945 welded air cleaner
mounting tabs. April 2016 Insurance Apprasial was done. Motorcycle was appraised at $35,000. This is an appreciating asset. Will only go up in value. XLS spreadsheet of the parts, prices and sources of most of my parts is
available. First page is parts and prices, second page is my DOD research and registration numbers. This bike took me 5 years and $46,000 in parts to build. NOT including labor besides engine and transmission overhaul. Engine is all orginal or NOS and was shipped to Don Dzurick in Wisconsin, USA and rebuilt. (Judge for Antique Motorcycle Club of America) has not been started and no oil has been added. Bike was to go into museum and display. Transmission was gone through and rebuilt by Al at Hyper Cycle in Edmonton,AB Motorcyle was bought as a basket case (10 boxes of parts) in April 2011 from a gentlemen in Missouri and was shipped to Canada. Motorcycle has official importation papers for Canadian registration OR for importation back into the USA. No expense was spared on this full restoration. Everything except what is listed below is either NOS or original equipment that was refurbished back to original. I reparkerized what ever parts needed it. All leather is original. Those saddle bags are NOS. The Thompson SMG is an original 1928A1 Savage with numbers matching receiver and frame group. Bolt and barrel have been dimilitarized. It is correct for late WW2 and matches the vintage of the bike. The seat is original and came out of a box. The scabbard is original and near flawless The ammo box is original. All the radio suppression equipment is NOS and included. The rims are NOS The extremely hard to find battery box is NOS. Skidplate is original but not pictured. Wasnt ready for pics. All mounting hardware is NOS All exhaust and muffler plus hardware are NOS
The primary cover is NOS
Tires are Coker reproduction but the motorcycle COMES WITH NOS TIRES. Not pictured. Battery is
original but gutted to fit modern sealed battery inside. As much original paint
was saved and used as possible. Brake light switch is a modern reproduction.
A few nuts and bolts were purchased from Colony that I just couldnt find. Very
few are Colony though. Triple mag pouch is original and includes 3 – 30rd Thompson magazines. CS-90 Flag set is original M1936 Musette Bag is original Canteen is original Shovel is questionable as to its originality. M1935 Bedding roll is original and marked by original owner
from WW2 Please, if you have any questions, ask. If you could, ask as detailed a question as possible so there is no miscommunication. Thanks. Trades |
