If you decide to get this running try this guy for parts: Sonny's MC Repair in Lowell MA. Just do a search. I used him when I rebuilt my SS250. Good guy lot's of NOS parts.

Well it's been 5 years OP what did you end up doing with the bike?
1. Did you hang it on the wall behind your bar?
2. Restore it and ride it on Sundays?
3. Cut your loses and sell it on ebay?
4. It's still sitting in a corner of the garage.
Oh yea, did you get that Camaro running right?
I'm not trying to bust ***** here, just be interesting to hear what happened after 5 years. Life happens. Still a cool bike.
I found a '62 Sears Allstate years ago. I was going to restore it but ended up moving and giving it to a friend of mine. He turned it into a mailbox post. That was 30 years ago. Wish I had that bike today.

A prime example of why I didn't own a Harley until 2014.
I too have a memento of Harley's darkest hour.

There's a museum in Georgia that has an original one with 4 miles on it for sale ($200). http://www.2040motos.com/Harley-Davi...iginal-111207/

Yes Sir, I have the title from 1976 that matches the VIN on the motor and the original frame in my garage.

She's an XLH1000. Kicker and electric start from stock.
