RARE

Rarest of them all

1972 XL-A

YES, said XL-A

To give you an idea of how rare this Sportster is, heir has probably been more people view Planet Earth from outer space than have owned a Sportster XL-A

From 1970 to 1980 Harley made six models:

2G = XLT

3A = XLH

4A = XLCH

4E = XLS

7F = XLCR

4D = XLA (A = Military)

This bike has a matching engine and frame number

# 4D52301H2

It’s easy to get information about how many of each model was produced, XCEPT the XLA. Harley-Davidson will not give any information about Military bikes because of the Government’s confidential rules and regulations.

In other words, he XL-A is Top-Secret

(But it’s probably on Hillary Clinton’s Server)

I have no way of verifying it but I was told that less than 50 were made for the Military. They were used primarily for parades and escorts. They were ridden and used for parts to keep others running and then scrapped. This is the only survivor I have found other than a 1969 XLA a couple of years ago.

This bike does not run. It was taken completely apart in preparation for restoration. I purchased the bike in a “Basket” I have assembled the bike to show it in its basic form and to roll. I have not put all the parts back on the bike. I have a picture of all the parts I have for the bike.

(I’m told that it has the wrong carburetor.) All the wiring has been removed but included. The motor turns over freely but needs a complete overhaul. The bike also is in need of a total restoration. Once finished and done right this bike could be a priceless museum piece.

The bike has a clear North Carolina Title. It has been signed off by the previous owner and notarized. My name is listed as the “first Re-Assignment”

The bike has recorded mileage of 15.342

This bike is not for everybody. It’s for the connoisseur, he collector of rare things. Somebody who enjoys the finer things in life yet is not ostentatious. Someone who is frugal but ready to step up to the plate when the opportunity arises.

I’m getting a lot of different opinions about the value of this bike. Some are too outrageous to believe. I really don’t know the value of this bike in its present condition. I think somewhere around $10,000. The auction has no reserve. The high bidder wins but I would sell it before the auction ends for $10,000 or a reasonable offer BEFORE the last 24 hours of the auction. I will NOT sell it within the last 24 hours for any amount. So if you want it, ou should make an offer ASAP.

Trade ?

I may be interested in trading for something that rolls,

but nothing that floats, lies or stands still.

An opportunity like this may not come along again for a long time.

The bike is in Walnut, A. (far eastern area of Los Angeles) and is available for inspection anytime.
