1974 Harley-davidson Sportster Xlh 2-owner Refurbished Ready To Ride No Reserve! on 2040-motos

Harley-Davidson Sportster description

Just completed refurbishing this 1974 XLH Sportster and he is ready to ride or show. I bought this motorcycle from the ORIGINAL OWNER who bought it new in South Kansas City Missouri at Worth H-D. It shows only 14,731 miles on the odometer. It did have a broken speedometer cable when I got the bike but it has been replaced with a brand new period correct cable. Looking at the tires that are on/ included with the motorcycle mileage appears to be very close to the 14k. The top end has never been off this motorcycle as evidenced by the virgin head bolts. The tires appear to be the original 40 year old Goodyear tires and if I was going to ride it I would definitely invest in some new rubber. I was unsure what I was going to do with this Sportster so one day I decided instead of buying a tire that it was easier to just put the 16 inch rear wheel with a good Dunlop tire that I had in the shed. I am including the original 18 inch wheel and Goodyear tire with the bike in case you want to put it back on. I had a good buddy repaint: front fender,rear fender,oil tank,chain guard,battery box, and the battery tray. The gas tank WAS NOT REPAINTED because it was in such good shape and has that 40 year old patina,stripes and decals. I have also sealed the inside of the tank with a commercial tank sealer kit.(the expensive one)
