My Pa purchased this Owner's manual for 612.00 in 1948.  With it came a blue 1947 FL.  He was 18 years old, and was in the market for a new motorcycle.   He was riding an "American other" and was not happy with it's performance nor it's reliabilty.  The local boat and Harley dealer had a left over 1947 FL model with the optional 18" front wheel installed.
