Torrington, Connecticut

Relisted for the fourth time. Please do not bid if you don't have the money, can't pick it up, don't have a paypal account yet or for any other reason may have trouble completing the purchase. Local pick up only or arrange for shipping to be picked up at my address. Needs a clutch and clutch cable. Comes with the parts to replace the clutch and cable. The cable broke and the clutch slips because the guy I bought it from used gear oil instead of wet clutch oil. The tank dash needs to be wired, there is one half of a weather proof plug wired to the tank dash, the wires coming out of the headlight shell need to be wired to the other half of the plug. I worked to achieve an antique, weathered look to the bike, I know this isn't for everyone but the bodywork is really solid and all new. There is a chip on the tank just above the air cleaner, a chip in the bottom of the back fender and some scratches in the front fender, all of them not on purpose. the tank has a crackled, weathered appearance that was on purpose, the rear fender has a little too, it also has light scratches from the saddle bags. The pictures show everything. The pinstriping is a little uneven and a lot of the stripes are slightly different sizes, they were hand painted but not perfectly, see the pictures. Top end rebuilt last year, new cylinders, heads and pistons, not even broken in yet. May need new rotors and pads due to surface rust Tank is custom, was a fat bob tank for a Dyna but I moved the mounts to fit my bike and filled the center seam because I don't like the tank bibs. The front fender is also meant for a dyna but fit on this bike because they have the same front end. I filled in the mounting bracket area for a cleaner full fender look. The back fender was actually made for a sportster but not this year. I had to cut off the tail light mounting bosses and fill them because they were for the stock tail light and I wanted the tombstone tail light for the vintage look. The seat is a Saddleman solo seat. The speedo bounces and I don't think the odometer works on it. It has 5 miles since the top end of the engine and the carburetor were rebuilt. I wasn't able to break it in yet because of the broken clutch cable. It needs new tires, I have the back tire but the front was in good shape last year, its all cracked now. I have the original front and back fenders, not the tank. It runs great with a jump start, idles nice and low but not without the cables attached since the battery is dead, plan on buying a new one. If I open the throttle a touch to bring the idle up it runs fine without the jumper cables so I know the generator and voltage regulator are good. It's a full custom bike but looks like it was made this way. If you are looking for that vintage, heritage or nostalgic look in a smaller framed better handling bike this is the one. It would have been easier to start with a Softail but I had already done that and liked the handling and braking of the sportster. It has the rare S&S Cycle air cleaner not the more common S&S Super version. I took off the choke butterfly valve for better air flow. It starts fine without it and warms up quickly. I did not pull it apart and paint the frame, I will leave that up to the next guy. This would make a great winter project but could also be ridden now with a weekend of work. This bike is one of a kind and I have never seen another sportster with the heritage/nostalgic look. I used to get constant questions and offers on it when I rode it but I would always say "I would never sell it." Of course now that I need to sell it I can't drive it around and accept one of the many offers because of a broken clutch cable I simply don't have the time to change. Now real life has slapped me in the face and its time to part with it. Divorce, dwindling finances and a complete lack of time are conspiring against me. This bike could be parted out for twice the starting bid but I want to give it a chance at a new life in it's current state. Now that it's out of winter storage and here at the house I may possibly get to the clutch, if I do the auction will be cancelled and relisted with a higher price provided there are no bids at that time.

Harley-Davidson : Sportster 79 harley davidson 1000 xlh xlcr vintage cafe racer e start 10 k miles new parts

$4,600

Fort Myers Beach, Florida

I've got to raise thousands by April 15th, so my '79 HD Sportster 1000 has to be sold. It started as a very original, numbers matching XLH (see photo) with low miles and 2 previous owners. It had been sitting awhile, so it needed the usual.................. Oil Change, Fresh Gas, New Battery, Avon Roadrider Tires, New Oil and Air Filter, New Carb, Valve Adjustment, Primary Chain Adjustment and it started right up, ran and idled great. Many of the original parts were fine, so they were adjusted, lubed and cleaned. I've always had a soft spot for the '78 '79 XLCR Cafe Racer that HD produced, so I decided to take virtually the same frame, engine, suspension, brakes, etc. as the XLCR, and make my own version of a HD Cafe Racer. I used as many used parts as possible to retain the 36 year old patina. The CR is not competed to my satisfaction though.....................Left front brake rotor is a bit warped, The left fork seal weeps a bit, Has some other MINOR leaks, The speedo cable makes some noise, Kickstand needs a block to sit straight, Right battery cover missing, and it jumped out of 2nd gear one time when I romped on it, but I rode it over 100 miles without another problem. It's a true cafe racer, not a highway cruiser, so it was perfect riding to the local bike bars. A vintage bike needs to be pampered with regular oil checks/changes, gas treatment (Seafoam), turn off gas, check tire pressure, put in neutral at lights, started regularly and ridden with respect which will give you trouble free rides for years, not treated like some modern crotch rocket. Early HDs are known for poor brakes, clunky transmissions and vibration, and this bike is no exception, but the sound and torque are unbelievable!. Always draws a crowd, and stands out among baggers and other Harleys. Check my other auction for a budget Cafe Racer. Happy to help with shipping, even overseas and please email any questions.On Mar-30-15 at 04:52:12 PDT, seller added the following information: Clean, Signed Florida Title/ Factory HD Service Manual & Oil Filter Part Number (see pic)On Mar-31-15 at 04:29:50 PDT, seller added the following information: Both gauges work, as do all the lights.....................even the generator and oil pressure warning lights. The bulky stock HD horn was replaced with a smaller horn mounted under the seat, out of view.On Apr-03-15 at 08:47:11 PDT, seller added the following information: A long time HD Ironhead mechanic helped me with an oil change modification (see new pic). When changing engine oil, the oil pump sometimes gets air locked which requires the sending unit to be removed to properly bleed the air/oil. Now with a petcock between the pump and sending unit, you just loosen the valve and let the air bleed naturally. When you see oil, close it up. If you're in a hurry, start the engine with the valve open until only oil comes out. I prefer the first method. Clean, easy, effective.
