Harley Davidson Composite Chopper/Bobber
Vehicle Description

 

I've been working on this chopper/bobber off and on for 3 years...It's 90-95% complete.  I put lots of time and money into the bike but right now need $$ to pay bills.  The chopper just needs a little more work and it’ll be ready to hit the road.

 

1973 Harley Davidson Rigid frame with a 1966 Harley Davidson XLCH 900cc Iron-head engine.  Aside from the engine cases and frame, most of the parts are fairly new or custom fabricated.  All new electrical throughout the bike!

- New "old-school" Firestone front and back tires purchased from Coker Tire
- New powder coated red rims with twisted spoke wheels
- New S & S Super B Carb
- New Arrow air cleaner
- New Drag Specialties battery
- New spark plugs, spark plug wires.
- New chrome generator/voltage regulator.
- New grips and newer controls and drag style black handlebars.
- Custom Tank.
- New front brakes (need to be installed)
- New brake pads on the back...back brakes need to be adjusted.
- New chrome upswept fishtail chrome exhaust.
- New chrome front inverted forks, with specially machined cup forks.
- New Hard-Tail seat.
- New tail lights and rear brake light.
- Lots of other new and used extras and custom fabricated parts.
- Recently professionally rewired

- Custom Fabricated front fender.

-Comes with original rims and tires and original front fork (unassembled) which are not shown in the pics.

 

The chain needs to be installed, carb needs to be adjusted or re-jetted...a few other things  need to be installed or adjusted before it's road ready.  The bike runs great (when you can start it)...Right now, the carb floods the engine.  It's a minor issue and the bike comes with another carb (It's a used HD, CV) if needed.  Once the carb issue is fixed or the carb is replaced, I was told it should start right up.  Like any other old Ironhead, the bike leaks a little oil.  I've olny started the bike a few times...but I can tell you that the engine roars!  Also, if your not familiar with 1966 engines, it's kick start only.  This would make a great Fall/Winter project for someone that wants a nice custom Harley but doesn't want to put too much work or money into it.  The hard work is complete, it shouldn't take too long to finish the bike at all.

 

The bike comes with a CT Bill of sale and is being sold as is (a nearly complete project bike).  When I purchased it 3 years ago, the guy said the bike could be registered as an antique 1966 or a composite depending on your local DMV. 

Please  feel free to e-mail me with any questions.

 

***Please note, your bid is a legally binding contract.  Do not bid if you do not intend to pay for the bike.  Also if you have under 50 feeback or less than perfect feedback, please e-mail before bidding.  This bike is also being sold locally, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  Thanks and Good Luck!!
