Harley-Davidson Sportster description
This auction is offering a chance to finally get one of the best custom Sportsters ever built.
The motor was pumped professionally by John Prince & Danny Rich. John did the machine work on the barrels & heads. Danny did the reassembly using using Sifton parts & firing the motor. John Prince made a lot of accessories including the oil tank I used. They were both super people to do business with. R.I.P.
Back in mid1978 I went to Fremont Drag Strip, best run was 11.80, smooth running fast sportster.
In one of the photos you can see I was really enjoying my ride, 37 years ago...8]
A few more years passed, things change, career, marriage, family etc. I had to put it in storage (1980.)
The motor has a joe hunt mageneto, Sudco Mikuni with accelerator pump, has a Barrnet clutch & tranny was updated (fourth gear) just before the sport went into storage so I would call the last 2 items like brand new.
Brought the sport back out of storage approx. 2010, the whole bike was updated also went to .040 over on the upper end. Its in excellent condition and still runs awesome, only thing is that I can't ride her anymore so I decided not to just let it sit, that someone will enjoy it as much as I have,
If you use "buyitnow" & if needed, I will pay for shipping, otherwise shipping will be paid by the buyer reaching minimum reserve amount
Good Luck, any questions just ask

Harley-Davidson Breakout Recall Caused by Fuel Tank Angle
Fri, 25 Apr 2014An official recall announcement by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration sheds some light on the cause of a recall campaign on 2013-2014 Harley-Davidson Breakout and CVO Breakout models. We wrote about the recall last week, after campaigns were initiated in Canada and Australia to address a problem with the fuel sensors not properly reading the correct volume of fuel. We now know the problem is caused by the angle of the fuel tank.
The 2022 Harley-Davidson Icons Model May Be the Low Rider El Diablo
Tue, 22 Feb 2022The devil is in the details Earlier this year, Harley-Davidson revealed a new Low Rider ST featuring a FXRT-inspired fairing. Initial reaction to the Low Rider ST was very positive, with Jochen Zeitz, Harley-Davidson chief executive officer, claiming in Harley-Davidson’s Q4 earnings call “demand was so high for this bike that we sold out our first consumer allocation in 10 minutes.” While the retro fairing might not appeal to everyone, one other critique about the FXLRST (and a few other bikes in the 2022 lineup) is the rather drab selection of colors: Vivid Black and Gunship Gray. If you’re looking for a more vibrant Low Rider ST, you may want to wait a bit longer, as Harley-Davidson will be introducing a new variant to be called the “Low Rider El Diablo.” The name appears in vehicle emissions certification from the U.S.
