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
