The wife and I went down to Albany Oregon last week and picked up a 1974 HD Sportster. The owner said the motor was rebuilt, 8 years ago but was never started. Bike was sitting outside under a covered carport and looks sad. Going to take a lot of work. First thing I have to do is strip it all the way down to the bare frame and start the slow process of rebuilding it. It will be long project probably over a few years due to time. The motor was supposedly bored out but no way of knowing how much.
The paint is primer gray, there is a large oil leak inside our enclosed trailer after we arrived home. Basket case, well its close but all the parts are there and the price was right, cheap and was almost free.
I might be asking lots of questions from time to time.
Hey, CD got any ideas for rebuilding an old shovel head bike. |
