If I could only use 4 words to describe the 1920's Harley Davidson single cylinder bikes, I would use the words: "lightweight, reliable, simple, & fun."

This 1929 Harley Davidson Model C will give you just that. The "C" engine designation provides us with the largest production side-valve single Harley made at 500cc. This motor coupled with the 3 speed transmission gives plenty of power to ride around town and have some fun on country roads.

This motorcycle starts up easily and runs nicely. It may need some adjusting and TLC to get it perfect for your liking, but overall this bike is ready to go!

There are a number of mixed and matched parts on this machining regarding years and correctness, but everything functions as it should. Please use the pictures to judge what is there. If you have any more questions please let me know.

This motorcycle is sold with a title.

Can deliver to Wauseon or Davenport!

On a Thursday afternoon earlier this month, one of my clients was telling me about how he has “almost assembled a complete lineup of every year Knucklehead in original paint.” I asked him which years are missing, and he responded “…well the toughest one would be a ’42….. let me know if you come across one.”
Two days later I got a phone call from a gentleman I’ve never heard of before.... This man started telling me about an amazing 1942 Harley Davidson FL Knucklehead that him and his father bought from their cousin back in 1969. The bike had around 20,000 miles on it when they got it, and it has only accumulated around 2,000 more miles over the past 57 years since then; most of its life was spent in the garage!
After he told me this story, I asked “Well, is it original paint?”
The man replied “I believe so.”
I informed my client about this find, and he promptly told me to make the deal happen. I hopped on a plane a couple days later to go see the bike in person, and the rest was history!

Larson MasterWorks is very proud to handle the sale of this incredible original paint 1942 Harley Davidson FL Knucklehead. Not only is the original paint on this bike in amazing condition, but the engine still runs strong. I started this bike on the very first kick, and the previous owner rode it around the block without any issues. This is truly a phenomenal survivor!

Some of the original parts were swapped off of this bike over the years and stored in the attic for safe keeping (wheels, exhaust pipes, coil, etc… not shown in pictures). Thankfully the previous owner had the foresight to hold onto all these original parts so they could be included in the sale!

Thank you to everyone involved in this sale - this is a great bike going to a really great place.

This 1909 Indian Twin motorcycle is the type of machine you might only come across once every few years. This bike has some of the nicest original paint I have ever seen on a pre-1910 Indian. I would say approximately 80%-90% of the original black paint is still present on the bike. The tank decal is gorgeous. The nickel plating is very nice overall... There are a few odds and ends to sort out with the linkages and carburetor, but this bike is an extremely well preserved original paint beauty.

I have not had this engine apart (I don't think anyone has for 100+ years), but I can tell you the internals must be in fairly decent condition. The engine turns over with good compression, and it has spark. I actually got it fire once after dripping some fuel into the intake manifold!

The only thing preventing this machine from running right now is the intake manifold and carburetor - they need to be sealed up and fitted properly.

Overall this is a stunning original machine wearing many extremely rare original parts.

Please see pictures for details of what is all there and what needs some tlc.

Asking price: $95,000 USD

*Amazing Opportunity!* 🔥
This 1913 Harley Davidson Model 9E is an incredibly rare find. Those in the hobby may remember this machine's history as it was formerly owned by the late Joe "Slow Joe" Gardella.

Mr. Gardella was a master machinist, and a meticulous rebuilder, restorer, and conservator of antique Harley Davidson motorcycles. He specialized in early 1910's-1920's Harley's along with some amazing knuckleheads from the 30's-40's as well. This 1913 Twin was one of his best early road going machines!

I do not know the extent of the work done inside the engine, but I know this entire bike was thoroughly rebuilt, ridden, and maintained as Joe would ride this bike extensively.

There is very nice original paint and plating present all over the bike. It really has the look of a nicely preserved piece of history!

This bike sat for about 2-3 years between the last time Joe ran it and when I got it running in early June 2026.

It starts very easily, but it will need a little bit of TLC and tuning before running and riding again I'm. This bike is 113 years old - it's amazing it has made it this far in this condition!

Make sure to check out my other motorcycles I've got listed - I will be adding some more amazing machines soon!
