Harley-Davidson Sportster description

Awesome looking bike! 1974 Harley XLH chopper with a 38 degree rake and 1938 Springer front end. Originally 1000cc, increased to 1200cc with stroker kit. Because of stroker kit, kick start does not work and the bike is electric start. New starter. Very sturdy, all welds are well done, and tank is in good condition.

Originally bought this while I was serving in the US Army from the person who chopped the bike. It's been sitting in storage for the past couple years so has a little bit of rust and is not currently running. Gas and oil were drained before putting in storage so it is ready to ship. Was running before I put it in storage so assuming it needs a couple hours of work to get it started- oil, new battery, and a safety check. Also I have manuals, receipts, and diagrams from the person who did the modifications.

I haven't touched the odometer but I'm not certain what the true mileage is. Was registered in WA and title is from WA also. All in my name.

More Miles From Dunlop’s 2nd-Gen American Elite Tires

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Dunlop says its second-generation of American Elite tires provide increased mileage, and come in a variety of new styles. Designed with Dunlop’s MT Multi-Tread technology, with a long-wearing center compound and grippier compounds on each edge, the new American Elite’s should pique the interest of Harley FL owners. The second-gen series of American Elites are also now available with narrow white bar sidewalls and wide white walls along with the original black sidewall, providing FL owners more choices.  For riders of Harley-Davidson FL Touring bikes, model year 2009 and later, the new second-generation American Elite tires with Multi-Tread are available in 130/80B17 and 180/65B16 black sidewall, 130/80B17 and 180/65B16 narrow white sidewall, 130/90B16 and 180/65B16 wide white sidewall, with the 130/70B18 front tire available for select CVO bikes. For recent-model Softail owners, including models such as the Fat Boy, the MH90-21, 140/75R17 and 200/50R17 sizes of American Elite are also available.

More Evidence of a Harley-Davidson Pan America 975 Emerges

Mon, 17 Oct 2022

Earlier this year, we wrote about how signs of a Pan America 975 were mistakenly mentioned in an official Harley-Davidson web page for an accessory locking fuel cap. Up until shortly after our article went live, the page listed the fuel cap as being compatible with the RA1250 (Pan America 1250) and RA1250S (Pan America 1250 Special) as well as two unannounced models: the RA975 and RA965S, which we assumed to be Pan America models powered by the 975cc version of the Revolution Max engine, like the one equipped on the Nightster. Motorcycle.com has now obtained further evidence of the existence of middleweight versions of Harley-Davidson’s adventure-tourer, once again from Harley itself, as well as the U.S.
