Harley-Davidson Sportster description

1978 Harley-Davidson 1000 XLH Anniversary Edition Sportster.

One of a limited edition of only 2323 manufactured, this is a 90% correct survivor...not many remain in this condition.

Runs strong and gets second looks for its classic styling and condition. Distinctive 1000cc Ironhead unique to 1972-1985 model years.

Sweet sound with baffled drag pipes turns heads. Newer top end, tires, battery, generator and ECM. One-of-a-kind custom tank art. Generator circuit needs tweaking. Needs rear brake shoes. Speedo has started acting up.

Numbers good, clean title. Chrome tail light cover in pics has gone missing...otherwise as pictured.

Good to VG condition overall. NADA VG valuation of $5700.

Local Pick-up only.

Harley-Davidson's Production Stoppage Was Caused by Non-compliant Brake Lines

Fri, 29 Jul 2022

Production ramps up to meet year-end targets Back in May, Harley-Davidson announced it would temporarily halt motorcycle production due to a “regulatory compliance matter” regarding an unspecified part from a third-party supplier. Harley-Davidson initially estimated the stoppage would last two weeks but it eventually lasted 19 days before production resumed on June 6. The actual cause for the delay remained unclear some speculating the issue was related to the powertrains, as the stoppage only affected Harley-Davidson’s gas engine-powered motorcycles and not the electric LiveWires.
