You are bidding on a fully restored, ery rare 1970 Harman - Triumph "Bay Area" digger / chopper. One of only four! John Harman was famous for his "Spirder" (Springer / Girder) style frontends and custom frames. He however only ever made four (4) frames for Triumph engines. Look up the "John Harman Story" on Youtube for more information.
This bike was painstakingly restored by world renowned Master Bike Builder Paul Ponkow of "Bones Legacy". Paul has been featured in over 130 custom motorcycle magazines in the world and also had a full TV episode on Counting Cars on the History channel restoring "The Big Twin" from AEE choppers. Paul also has been invited back to back to the Master Builders Championship. Multi championof Ultimate builder in retro class, nd winner of 100 other bike shows for his attention to detail.This bike is show quality and was featured on the cover of "Brit Chopper" magazine.
Most of the chrome parts have been rechromed and look amazing. Especially the original 1970'sprismgas tank and Santee oil tank! The beautifulcandy apple purplepowdercoat on the frame is stunning in the sunshine. These photos do not do it justice!
The bike starts easily, uns good, hifts through the gears nicely, ndsounds great!It probably only has about 1000 miles on it since it's restoration and has mainly been on display since it's completion. Battery is brand new.
The engine is a desirable 1970 T120R "Bonneville" with a 1969 TR6R "Tiger" single carb head for reliability. Some say the best of both worlds. This engine has also been rebuilt from the sludge trap up. Megacycle cams, epolite pistons, oyer electronic ignition, nd cylinder head performance work by Don Hutchinson are just a few of the upgrades. The engine cases are also fullypolished and look great! Carb is a polished AmalConcentric and exhaust pipes are rare NOS "MCM" units.
The front rim is a rechromed Jones WM1-21" with a Avon Speedmaster 3.00-21" tire. Rear rim is a 16" HD with 5.00-16" Avon tire.
Hundreds of hours went into thisrestoration and there is about $12,000 invested into restoring this amazing chopper.
The custom Harman frame is titled as a 1964 Homebuilt and the title is a clear Nevada. The frame serial numbers match the title.
