First year of the Electra Glide. 12 volt electrics and a new frame for the larger battery. The oil tank is moved to the left side and the footshift model gets a "Turnpike" 5 gallon tank. The primary cover is aluminum, the spark advance automatic and stronger cases and clutch for the higher torque starter. Gone is the trumpet horn for a disc unit, and shock chrome domed caps. Enter the ball end brake and clutch hand levers.
The 1965 FLH Specs: 8:1 compression, 60hp @ 5,400rpm, chain drives, 12 volt battery, double down tube, 60" wheelbase, 783lbs, 5 gallon fuel, 4 qts oil, 100mph.
