The Sportster is a line of motorcycles produced continuously since 1957 by the Harley-Davidson Motor Company. Our Sportster was in need of some transmission and carburetor work that was made apparent by Jeremy of Gas Monkey Garage when the episode aired. It was pretty clear he was in over his head, o they sold the bike with some needs. Our (20 year veteran) technician pulled the clutch basket and clutch pack and replaced the neutral locking pin. For good measure, e rebuilt the carburetor, djusted the clutch and the throttle cable. This Harley is now running and shifting the way was it meant to from day one!…We don’t monkey around!

Finished in a dramatic deep red the custom molded gas tank shows extremely well with only minor imperfections visible upon close inspection. Both the front and rear fenders have been removed to help execute the flat track look. All the frame pieces have nicely integrated contrasting black finish and fit nicely and compliment the red custom molded tank. Chrome pieces show extremely well for a sixty era bike.

The black seat is custom and molded to work in harmony with the fuel tank. subtle with enough room for one to ride comfortably…two not so much The seat looks great with no major signs of wear visible.. Paint and frame are exceptional with no visible evidence of repair or damage that we could find.
