From a Kawasaki to a Harley-Davidson
 
Well!!

I finally took the jump and got a Harley-Davidson! Not just a plain old Harley-Davidson.. but a fucking classic. I will be getting more pics as the days go on!

1984 Sportster XLH1000 AMAZING Condition
*Brand new tires
*Brand new brakes
*Brand new seat
*Brant new chain

And I only paid less than $3,000 for it, the guy had NO idea what he was handed down to him..The bike only has 2 spots of rust on it and runs like a god damn champ. Just needs a carb adjustment and new filter and we are good to go! The bike came with custom straight pipes. LOUD

You need to ditch the front wheel ASAP IMO

Screaming eagle air cleaner

Drag bars on a 8" riser

Clean it up a bit and it's good to go

Not a bad bike, hope you didn't pay more than $2500 for it.

A Mid 80's HD. . . . stock up on oil.


Will be a nice change, and I am sure your pops is proud(he's a HD guy, right?).

Needs single seat, and different bars too. Glad you are ditching the front wheel, it's kind of hideous.


FUUUUUU, just saw that they are coming in soon, :thup: :thup:

My dad is a HUGE Harley fanatic, this was actually his FIRST harley in 1985 when he used to ride with the Pagans MC in PA.

The guy included 2 cases of Genuine HD Oil + Chain Lube + a bunch of other fluids direct from HD :)

This is what I plan on it looking like after its all said and done.. but I cannot decide on going Flat black on a lot of the chrome or leave it chrome..

Also, I will have better handlebars.

As much as I love flat black/dislike chrome, I say keep it original on this one.

Pagans are not very nice here in Lynchburg.

They ran an old guy on a cafe bike off the road the other day.
