Heres what I know...

I'm NOT a Harley mechanic and am not trying to rip anyone off here...  I'm going to be honest and tell you everything I know about this bike.  If you are going to buy this bike then I hope you either know how or know someone that works on them.  She's over 40 years old and so its a given it will need some tlc..  Overall it seems like a very solid bike and really stands out from most of the classic sportsters I have seen..

I aquired this bike in trade.  It has been sitting in a garage for over 10 years (last time on the road was 2002).  The woman that owned it said it ran great when she put it away.  She bought a new bike (evo) and has been riding that ever since.  She said the kick only got to be a bit much for her.  I put a battery some gas and oil in it and kicked it over a few times and it started right up.  The motor sounds good..  It will need a good old tune up...  adjust the valves, points, carb etc...   I haven't had it on the road because the clutch cable is very hard and won't disengage ( either needs a new cable or adjusting).  The paint is chipping in areas (see pics).  Chrome is decent and will polish up good with a little elbow grease (not the cheap chrome that flakes off). 

Restore or ride as is... Your call!  I don't have the title because in my state they don't require one...  BILL OF SALE ONLY...  bike will be sold in AS IS condition...  I can't gaurantee anything on it...  its a vintage harley and things rattle loose and brake all the time.  If you are unaware of this then please do yourself a favor and buy a new bike!  You (buyer) will be responsable for coordinating shipping and any charges with it.  If you have any questions please ask before making a bid or an offer.  Thanks for checking out my auction!
