Description

This is my 1959 Harley Davidson XLH Sportster hardtail Bobber.
Front end is pre warHarley Davidsonspringer shorten 2 inches with second set of chevronadded. I using a 21 inch front wheel laced to a stock Sportster front brake drumto help slow it down. To that a new AVON Speedmaster tire to keep you stuck. Outback stock Sportster brake hub laced to a Harley 16 wheel clad in a vintage GOODYEAR HD, ew wheel bearings front and back as well a new rear axle and Dragmaster O ring chain.Genuine Corbin Gentry Leather skirted solo seat using stock sportster plunger style seatsprings this helps soften the rigid frame ride.
After 4 different tanksI found this Cole Foster fuel tank on Ebay, nd after moving the mounts towork with custom frame all I could say was wow.. Cole your the man! thekicker pedal was scored from INFERNAL COMBUSTIONDESIGNS, hris had a bunch of cool kicker pedals I went with the BIG KAHUNA cuz it is the coolest.The rear fender was just as hard, tries till I found this ribbed and flipped beauty from Lowbrow Customs,this fender is real steel not some flimsy Asian POS I fabbed up the rear fender struts using stainless bullet bungs from BUNG KING and 3/8inch stainless bar stock. The tins werepainted withfuel proof Rat Rod satin black paint from Eastwood, set of repro 1959 tank badges keep everything low key. Frame is old school black enamel. Custom high capacity alloyoil bag ismounted low on the left and the battery high behind rear cylinder, did this to reduce the center mass and make bike look smaller.
Motor/Transmission was rebuilt from top to bottom by the pros atHighway Choppers in Phoenix AZ everything showing ANY wear has been replaced including .10 over piston, ew valves, uides, ifters and push rods. 6 volt Generator has been updated to an 12 volt alternator with an electronic regulator. Mikuni carb jetted for 900 Sportster replaces the Linkert which along with a new auto advance circuit breaker helps makethis KICK ONLYeasy to start, arrowed 3 inch rise handlebars were set up with internal throttle and original levers. The oil pressure light is a repurposed horn button and purple glass jewel lamp inclosing a red LED. Motor has less than 3 miles on it so proper care must be taken for first 500-1000 miles. Motor sounds amazing and she rides and shifts flawlessly, 'm sure once properly broken-in she'll haul ass!There's a lot more cool stuff I could tell you about this build, utthat would be bragging...
