Exclamation Please Help Us Find This Ride


Hello one and all. This is a simple post requesting the help of our fellow riders. Sometime between 12/23/09 and 12/27/09 some asshats broke into my buddies garage and stole his 1976 Liberty Edition Electraglide. This unspeakable act happened in the land of Zion, Salt Lake City, Utah. However it's likely to show up anywhere, in whole or, God forbid, pieces. If by chance you come across this model for sale in part or whole one simple question will determine if it is Steve's or not. "Is it all there?" will do it. The "Tards" forgot to pick up the saddlebags sitting not 5' from the bike. It is all original and a 1 owner so anything put on it will not look right. Steve is looking for a pic that I can post and will do so as soon as I can. I am offering a reward for the info that leads "ME" to these asshats, no need to call the law, I will notify them as to where they can find whats left of them. My email is scooterdude1340@yahoo.com or I can also be reached 24/7 at 1-801-597-1118. "Ride Often, and always Ride Safe." Thank you.

Sorry to hear and even more sorry that it will probably end up in pieces at some swap meet.

I'm not sure what that looks like. Posting a pic of the bike might help.

There is one for sale here in PHX complete with sidecar, also. One owner bike,too. All original. Not as rare as we might think.

There should be some ID markings, stampings on that frame/engine also! These would be more helpfull than a pic because we can assume it will get a repaint if left whole!

And just a thought but you going to check Craigslist and ebay, because the paint and decals on the sheet metal is quite unique.
