Default Please help me identify this bike

Potential craigslist find. It's her late husbands bike he planned to restore. She only knows that it says Harley Davidson on it, and 1975. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Unfortunately, this woman can't seem to find it. I'm going over tomorrow to check it out.

Looks like that bike spent to much time in that tanning bed next to it. Its say an old sprint too.

It's a 2-stroker IMHO. Weren't most of those made in Italy? Ammerichi? for HD. I also remember ? [sprints?] had a foward facing 1 cylinder 4 stroke. 350cc?
That one looks to be early 70's late 60's.
Sorry my 1970's memmories are a little colorized.

I agree.
I also thought the sprints were a horizontal 4-stroke.
