Shovelhead Weld-On Hardtail with Cast Axle Plates

Hardtails may have up to a 2 week lead time depending on stock and demand. The sooner you put your order in the sooner you'll get it! 

Specifically designed for Harley-Davidson Shovelhead original factory frames from 1966-84. This hardtail is designed to reduce installation time and complexity. This kit includes replica cast axle plates and seat post yoke threaded rear transmission posts as well as a replica HD seat post casting.  This is by far the easiest and fastest hardtail to install on the market. This kit does not require a professional frame jig for installation, although the use of a jig is always a plus.

All parts and manufacturing are made in the USA. Axle plates and Seat Post Yokes are are cast in the Pacifica North West and all assembly and TIG welding is done in house in Northern California.

This hardtail closely matches original Harley specifications of a Panhead tail section. There is no added stretch or height changing in the rear section. When it's all said and done this rear section will get you stock Shovelhead frame as close as it gets to a Panhead chassis.

We designed this hardtail to have a simple install procedure and most importantly preserve your bikes VIN numbers to minimize registration & dmv related headaches. 

During installation you will need to cut out the stock seat post area. The top tube of our hardtail is slugged and pre-bent allowing you to graft into the existing top tube, in front of the seat post casting, preserving a more original Harley look. The 1" DOM top rails taper in for a slim profile, mimicking the original Panhead frames. Our bottom drive side tube kicks out to allow for ample chain clearance, and both bottom rails are made from 1-1/8" DOM tubing to fit seamlessly into the frame's existing bottom rails.

We will release an installation guide specifically for this hardtail in the coming weeks, but in the meantime check out our Big Twin Evo Hardtail page for links to our YouTube videos and step-by-step installation guides. This hardtails installation is almost identical to the Big Twin Evo, but with a Shovelhead frame.
