Introduction to the model
The Harley-Davidson Model U, introduced in 1938, has a fascinating history. Based on the Model V, the U-series initially had a difficult start but was later refined with a stronger crankshaft, more robust flywheels, and improved internal components. These ‘flathead’ engines quickly won the hearts of Harley enthusiasts around the world and remained in production until the end of 1948. Thanks to improvements such as dry-sump lubrication and a sturdier frame, the Model U has evolved into a true legend among classic Harley models.
In short, this is a unique opportunity to own a classic Harley-Davidson Model U, ready to be ridden and admired!
