Description

1974 Harley Davidson Iron HeadSporster 1000 CC Electric Start Only. This Motorcycle is being offered as is, here is. It is a good solid foundation for an easy Project, ar Hopper or Bobber. My dearest friend on this planet owned this bike for the last 39 years. It sat for a long period of time. He was no longer able to work on it, or did he have the desire to do so. He passed it along to me to enjoy. I did a barrage of maintenance, emoved the fuel tank, ad it boiled out and serviced, ebuilt the original Zenith Bendix Carburetor put on new mirrors etc. I got the bike running. I decided to make sure the timing and contact points setting were correct. In doing that I made it worse, hrowing the timing off, utting too much strain on the starter motor and burning it out. I rebuilt the starter. When I installed the starter I miss aligned it and destroyed the starter gear. Long story short, ’m too old, oo tired, y body is too broken up and my hands don’t work well. I have given up. It is time for someone younger to enjoy this motorcycle. It will easily come back to life and be very cool!
