Description

I AM SELLING MY 1968 HARLEY DAVIDSON XLH BECAUSE I AM ALMOST 73 YEARS OLD AND REDUCING MY COLLECTION. I AM THE THIRD OWNER OF THIS MOTORCYCLE. THIS MOTORCYCLE WAS RESTORED FROM THE ORIGINAL BIKE USING ORIGINAL FRAME, HEET METAL, HEELS, NGINE COMPONENTS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF PISTONS, ALVES ETC.USING ALL QUALITY PARTS AVAILABLE. THERE IS APPROXIMATELY 1,200 MILES ON THE REBUILD. THERE IS NO POWDER COATING ON THIS MOTORCYCLE. THE SHEET METAL HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY PAINTED IN COLOR MAPPED DUPONT CHROMA 1 JETFIRE ORANGE WITH PROPERLY APPLIED CRINKLE BLACK CENTER STRIPE AND TAPED WITH WHITE ACCENT SIDE STRIPES AS ORIGINALLY APPLIED BY THE FACTORY. ORIGINAL HEADLAMP, ACELLE, AILLAMP ETC FROM THE ORIGINAL BIKE WERE MAINTAINED. ENGINE BELLY NUMBERS MATCH AS DOES THE FRAME DATE CODE AS THESE ARE THE ORIGINAL PARTS TO THIS MOTORCYCLE. LIGHTS, AUGES, ONTROLS ALL WORK PROPERLY. THE ONLY UPGRADE OTHER THAN A NEW BATTERY IS A BENDIX ZENITH CARBURETOR. IF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THESE BIKES AND THE ORIGINAL TILLOTSON CARBURETOR YOU UNDERSTAND WHY. FOR THOSE OF US THAT WERE AROUND IN THE 60'S AND KNEW SPORTSTERS, HE ELECTRIC STARTER (WHICH WORKS PROPERLY) WAS FIRST INTRODUCED TO SPORTSTER IN 1967 IS A WELCOME ADDITION AND AT OUR AGE, AYBE EVEN A LIFESAVER. :)THERE ARE VERY FEW 1968'S AROUND IN THIS CONDITION EITHER IN ORIGINALITY OR QUALITY. AS YOU CAN SEE THE BIKE COMES WITH QUITE A FEW OPTIONS. BECAUSE OF THE AGE THE MOTORCYCLE IT IS BEING SOLD AS IS WITH NO WARRANTIES, HECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE. IF YOU NEED HELP WITHSHIPPING I CAN RECOMMEND A FEW EXCELLENT ECONOMICAL TRANSPORTERS WITH 100% FEEDBACK. THANKS FOR LOOKING AT MY AD AND HOPEFULLY THE NEXT OWNER OF THIS BIKE WILL ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I HAVE. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE EMAIL OR CALL. IF YOU LIVE LOCALLY AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE BIKE CALL BRIAN AT 386-738-5113.
