That's gorgeous 😊 ,want a harley just like that, but dark red with a kicker, tyers go nice, I can smell the metal, I had old 70s harely shovel, sportster, bobber style ,it was put together bad, that's why it was cheep .then someone wanted it without paying for it , broke my heart that was about 30years ago, and now I'm looking for inspiration to build my own ,,😊😊 lovely sound, straight pipes, 😊😊 yeh more fun than a big harley ,😊

Engine sounds really sweet and mechanically quiet Watching the effort required on the kick-start tells me I'd definitely need a slightly later one with electric start Too old these days 😂

Very nice looking bike well done hard to compare this great look to the modern bikes if the old look is better makes me old fashioned then I'm old fashioned. 👍.

Nice. Always prefer a Sportster over a big twin. Had an iron head Sportster in about '83, brand-new, though i was the second owner. Managed to nearly get knocked off by a side swipe in traffic in East London, i was 22 years old and had sold everything to get it. Traded it for a 900 Honda and some cash. Of course i now regret it. Life, eh..?

That hits a really nice lick and looks great. My first Harley back in the '70s was a '60 XLCH. One word of warning, they have perhaps the worst kick start mechanism in the history of motorcycles, prone to disengaging mid-kick, resulting in a hyper-extended knee, aka the "Sportster knee". Make sure the kick starter shaft never gets exessive play to help prevent this.
@Jacobbray5 күн бұрын
@@Boreascorax Too true. I go through the entire kicker mechanism and primary on every ironhead I’ve owned. Doing my best to prevent the dreaded sportster knee!!

Beautiful bike. The sissy bar is a distraction though. See what your machine looks like without it.

@@richardw.9579 Thank you. I generally prefer some sort of rack over a sissy bar. That may be a future project. I need something to strap a bag or sandwich to!

nice i ride BSA/Triumph/Norton and don;t really care for HD but that type is very very good would not mind having a vintage XLCH
@Jacobbray4 күн бұрын
I used to have a 1971 Tiger that I liked. It felt similar to a short-frame XLCH, quick and nimble. I would like to track down a pre-unit Triumph some day. I think that would be fun.

Don't like the clear fuel line next to the hot motor. Could be a fireball situation. If you need to see the fuel get a filter and use the heavy line or wear your firesuit!? Thanks MK
