Not a motorcycle guy but I thought this was interesting. Only about 631 units were built, and who knows how many of them are still around in original markings? Apparently Harley has disowned this particular stepchild.

This article says 299 and 23 surviving. Who knows? https://www.motorcycleclassics.com/classic-american-motorcycles/harley-davidson-confederate/

**edit.. never mind 299 sportsters.. they made other models as well.

Actually, that could have been a whole lot worse.

To me Supper Glides will always be nothing more than pregnant Sportsters! The flag on the tank would probably get you hurt down here.

An AMF with confederate flags on it…It’s probably worth less now that it was in ‘77.

Back in 1977, the Confederate emblems wouldn't have even turned that many heads in the South.
