Description

Regrettably for sale. this beautiful example of a 2000 Harley-Davidson Sportster XLH883.

Having spent weeks looking for the right bike. I bought this recently from a gentleman. now 70. who has owned if from new. with the intention of keeping it until I was 70. Unfortunately the riding position aggravates an old back injury. so it sadly has to move on.

The bike is in virtually as new condition having covered just 7170 miles (might go up by a few) since new.   It comes with receipts from Riders of Bridgewater showing services at 2486. 4978 and 6827 miles. Owner tells me it?ˆ™s had annual oil changes at MOT time as well. 10 MOT certificates show it has done just 1000 miles in the last ten years. going up just a few miles a year.

Sybil (plate is W***SYB) is virtually stock. as she left the factory. except for a modified airbox to let more air in and Screaming Eagle ?ˆ?silencers?ˆ? (hah!). I have a new K&N filter on order and will fit it to match the rest of the stage 1 bits. She is running cleanly and sounds absolutely incredible. Everything works as it should. The paintwork is beautiful in a deep cherry red. with a metallic sparkle in the sunshine that the photos don?ˆ™t do justice to. Has both original keys.

Bad bits. none really. If you?ˆ™re really picky you?ˆ™ll notice that the forks could do with a polish as the lacquer has crazed a bit and the cheaper chrome bits (indicators. etc) have some very slight imperfections on the surface. Nothing glaring. but not quite ?ˆ?showroom?ˆ?. I haven?ˆ™t tried polishing ?ˆ“ it might all come off anyway. The V5 will be in my name. but is currently still with DVLA. I have the green slip. and can sort the rest when it arrives. The buyer will be the third owner; I am the second.

 So. a virtually as new. 2000 model bike. with just 7170 miles. The standard HD silencers (much quieter. for MOT) are included.

Call or email for any further details. Cash or direct transfer into my account only. Bike is in Chippenham. Wiltshire. close to J17. M4. Buyer collects.

I've been asked if the jets have been changed to suit the Stage one mods.  To be honest. I have no idea. The bike was converted to Stage one by Riders some time back. but the previous owner didn't like the noise and had the mods reversed. The filter in the perforated box is currently standard. but I do not know if the jets were put back to standard (I suspect not). I've ordered a K&N and fitted the Screaming Eagle pipes. So far it's running great. but I obviously haven't fitted the filter yet. Plenty of info on the forums as to what jets should be in there. so I'll check when I fit the filter and correct if necessary. The bike will therefore come as Stage one.
