This is the only one i got of me on ym '69 XLCH * yes its kick only* so far, once i get the recently formed oil fountain found and fixed and get the regulator back from cycle electric i'll get some shots of me riding. it aitn new or fancy like some of yours but its paid for in cash and it's rust free and starts first kick warm 4th kick cold and i have turned every nut and bolt on it since i bought it. for a 28 year old raising 2 kids on a disability pension on his own them there new fancy bikes are a bit outta my pocket books reach, least till my credit rating is a bit higher LOL.
i gotta ask though did they make sporty's smaller back when mine was built, cause some of you look liek your riding big twins where as me i look and feel liek i am riding a kids bike

NSCoyote I wish I had that 69.I had one of them in the early 70's and miss the hell out of it.You'll get more looks on that Ironhead than you will on a new one for sure.Keep on hitting it hard and you'll do just fine with the family.G.

This is my first post on this forum and I ride a 06 Street bob now but I cut my teeth on this '85 XLX-61 that I bought in 1990 when I was 22 years old. I LOVED this bike!! First pic is when it was completely stock(except seat) second pic is after complete rebuild done in my garage. The bike ran a best ET of 12.85 in the 1/4
