The Harley-Davidson FL, FLH, FX, FXE, and FXS models, produced between 1970 and 1978, represent a pivotal period in the American motorcycle manufacturer's history. These models were the culmination of a shift towards larger displacement engines and improved handling, establishing Harley-Davidson as a force in the burgeoning cruiser market. The FL, with its rigid frame and iconic "panhead" engine, offered a classic touring experience. The FLH, featuring a "shovelhead" engine and a full fairing, became a symbol of long-distance comfort and style. The FX models, including the FXE Super Glide and FXS Blackline, introduced a sportier character with their reduced weight and more agile handling. These motorcycles were renowned for their distinctive engine sounds, their robust construction, and their undeniable American identity.

The 1970-1978 Harley-Davidson motorcycles were not without their challenges. The "shovelhead" engine, while powerful, required meticulous maintenance and suffered from reliability issues. The rigid frame, while offering a solid ride, could become uncomfortable on long journeys. Despite these hiccups, these models solidified Harley-Davidson's reputation as a builder of iconic motorcycles that resonated with riders seeking a blend of performance, style, and American heritage. The models from this era are now highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts, their rugged charm and historical significance making them coveted pieces of motorcycle history.
