Harley-Davidson Sportster description
Very nice looking 1979 Harley-Davidson Sportster bike built from various parts and years as a street tracker to resemble a dirt track racer.
This was a project bike built in Florida for a series of do-it-yourself articles in American Iron Garage all-tech magazine a couple of years ago. The bike was running fine when parked in storage more than a year ago, but has not been strarted in a while. The brand new tires obviously need to be aired up, the oil should be changed and the battery might need to be replaced. Note the high performance Progressive Suspension rear suspension. The front brake fluid needs to be topped off and bled before riding it. Dual drilled disc brakes up front single disc in the rear. The bike is in storage at the American Iron Magazine offices in Stamford, CT. The bike has a clean Florida title. I would not consider it a cafe racer style, more like a street tracker with the XR750 style solo saddle. You can't buy the parts and built it yourself for less! |

Laguna Seca Added to 2014 AMA Superbike Schedule
Thu, 13 Mar 2014AMA Superbike will be racing at Laguna Seca this year after all, with AMA Pro Racing announced the addition of the Monterey, Calif., circuit to its 2014 schedule, joining the World Superbike Championship on July 11-13. Laguna Seca was not included in AMA Pro Racing’s calendar, but its addition now increases the number of rounds in the series to six. That’s still down from the nine rounds held in 2013, but the absence of Laguna Seca and its famed Corkscrew would have been an especially tough loss.
