    NO RESERVE AUCTION!!!  This bike is an absolute showstopper and has won every show I’ve entered it in.  It turns heads everywhere and will have every mechanic at the Harley dealer dropping wrenches and walking off their rack to check the bike out when it’s in for routine fluid service.  You will be hard pressed to find a nicer, cleaner, better running EVO.  This bike was bought here in Tucson at Tucson Harley Davidson 17 years ago by me.  It only has 15K miles on it and I put them all on except for about 500 miles.  Save the pictures to your computer and then zoom in on all of them.   I will also be loading a video of the bike in a day or two.  The bike has never broke down, never been run hard, never seen bad weather, only has been in the rain once in 17 years and that was only a light sprinkle for about 5 minutes.  The bike is detailed before and after all rides and has never been stored/parked outside overnight anywhere in its life.  The engine is solid with no knocks, no smoke, and pulls hard.  All fluids have been changed by the dealer or me every 1,500 miles or annually, whichever comes first.  Battery on tender under light cover with bike up on bike lift with wheels off ground when not being ridden.  One winter when I thought it was too cold out (dropped into the 40’s outside and 60’s in the garage) I brought the bike into the house and it stayed in the kitchen until the temps came back up to the 70’s.  Momma supported and understood.  I’ll try to list all the farkles below, but undoubtedly will forget something so be sure to ask any and all questions before bidding as the first bidder if not out bidded will take it home.  Yes, I know the KBB value and the fair market value of a ’96 FXSTC from most of the bike websites and here on eBay.  Those prices are nowhere near the $21K I paid for it in 1996 and the numerous $K’s I put into it over the years.  I also know these bikes just simply will never pull that kind of money.  As such, I’m starting the bid at a very very fair price and I ask you compare this bike with others a couple years older and newer and I think you’ll agree.  I built the bike with a specific look in mind.  Although the bike has drag bars, a shift light, and Hooker Headers, I assure you it has not been beat or run hard.  The shift light was part of the theme I was looking for and I run a 3.8 pill in it (3,800 RPM shift point).  I usually shift before that, but always shift if the light comes on.  Redline is around 5K so I’m well under any redline concerns.  I’ve run Vance and Hines Straight Shots and Long Shots and I’ve run a White Bros E pipe before I settled on the Hooker pipe.  In my opinion, the Hooker FourBidden pipe is the best looking pipe for this bike, it is without a doubt the best pulling pipe, and definitely the absolute best sounding pipe.  It is a very loud pipe so don’t be buying this to impress law enforcement.  I have never run the pipe without the baffle in it.  I have no idea how loud it would be with the baffle out.  All other pipes I’ve had there was a sacrifice somewhere.  With the Hooker there is no sacrifice.  It performs everywhere and looks great too.  The bike also has what I consider one of the best must do mods and that’s a CV tuned and jetted Carb from Killer M/C Products.  This carb has awesome performance everywhere and is maintenance free.  The rake of the bike coupled with the lowering kit, bar set-up, and forward controls make this bike handle amazing.  Factory Specs: Model: FXSTC  Softail Custom Color:  Two-tone Mango Engine: 1340cc /

B16 Blackwall (<1K miles) I’ve tried to list everything I can about the bike.  Is the bike 100% showroom perfect…no, it’s 17 years old and has a few minor age flaws.  Is the bike in outstanding condition and ready to ride, take to a local show, or wow your friends… absolutely. Please contact me with any questions.  I will not ship the bike but I will assist in shipping.  I’m not interested in trades of any kind so please don’t ask.  I’m not willing to sell the bike for next to nothing so don’t ask that either.  If you’re wondering if this is the kind of bike you can take home to momma… yes, she’ll approve.  As for getting this bike into your kitchen or bedroom when it’s cold outside… you’re on your own on that one. Thanks for looking and ride safe.

2023 Harley-Davidson X 350 Revealed for China

Fri, 10 Mar 2023

H-D/QJ Motor connection finally bears fruit Harley-Davidson has officially revealed the X 350 for the Chinese market, a small displacement flat track-inspired roadster produced with Qianjiang Motor (QJ Motor). As of this writing, the X 350 is only confirmed for China, though a modified variant known as the X350RA will be used in Harley-Davidson Rider Academy programs in the U.S. QJ and Harley-Davidson have been working on the X 350 since 2019, though the motorcycle traces its lineage a little earlier to the TNT300 from QJ-owned Benelli.
