I hear that. I have the space, just not the money

That IS gorgeous! 'fit were local, I might be tempted! Imagine how good it would look if it were an electric start with a copper plated oil tank?

BTW 15,000 miles on an AMF bike without a rebuild is pretty damn good!

I would buy it, and it's REALLY tempting, but it's already bid up to good clean "buy it now" shovel territory...almost. Will probably go well into that territory and maybe even beyond in the last few minutes of bidding...
I'm not about to enter one of those emotional bidding wars where I'd end up paying more than I want if I win and if I don't, I'll just be pissed off for the next day or so, cuz I didn't bid just a little bit more...

I would think the rings, valve springs and seals would be shot just from father time.

Really nice looking bike!

Agreed that is one of the best looking bikes I have ever seen. Buy it you know you want to.

That's a beauty. I have always loved the style of those old Ironheads. My first HD was an '83 XLX. That one is over the top gorgeous!
