Up for auction is a 1973 sportster that I boiught in high school. since then is has changed many times over the years. Right now it is a chopper/ bobber style with a very mean look to it. The frame is a hard-tail from santee the stretched the bike 4 inches and lowered it 4 inches. The seat i made my self for about 12 dollars. it may look a little wierd but rides out ok. The tank is a king tank which hold 3. 3 gallons and is coated on the inside to prevent tank rust. The rear brake is old school drum setup. works decent for a drum. The frame. tank. drum backing plate. rocker boxes. and engine covers are all sprayed silver. The front end is stock. Rims are chrome with tubes. the tires are ok. The engine is where I spent most of my time. the cases were split and new bearings and rods installed. the flywheel trued. resealed the engine with new gaskets. high compression piston(10. 0:1). heads dual plugged and ported. new valves. new oil lines. the carb is a S&S B with a thunder jet installed. the air cleaner I polished. the exhaust is one off that i made to make the bike stand out. also it made the bike loud even among harleys. I installed electronic ignition and generator to avoid the maintenance of points and polarization of a mechanical regulator. the wiring is very simple and run through the frame to make it cleaner. I used a model A tail light for an added old school touch. I run everything on a pair of switch hidden above motor mount. one for running and ignition. the other for headlamp. This is a Three kick bike. a cold blooded bike which requires a warm up for it to behave. but once it warms up it runs like a champ. Any questions please text or call at 727-366-4562. or message me through ebay. I will respond as soon as i can and honestly. Thank for looking. -MikeI also made a youtube video of it so it can be seen and heard. the link should work but ebay has some new rules about this. just add the world wide part. thanks again. . youtube. com/watch?v=tuGLaLlxPvM&feature=youtu. be***I lowered the buy it now and reserve prices. a good deal in my opinion.
