Harley Davidson was established in Milwaukee in 1903 and has gone on to become one of the world's most iconic and longest-running motorcycle manufacturers. Harley epitomizes large-capacity cruisers that many have tried to copy but have never managed to match Harley's image and prestige. The Sportster range has been produced continuously since 1957, powered by the classic air-cooled V-twin engine in a nice simple chassis. In 1991 the model was given a facelift, including the adoption of a five-speed gearbox and belt final drive. Harleys have always lent themselves to being customized, with a whole industry of aftermarket specialists providing parts to tailor a bike to an owner's personal choice.
This Sportster, being offered at no reserve, will make an interesting project to either restore as standard or form the basis of a one off special. Bought by the vendor many years ago and stood in the back of his garage since, there is no documentation included in the sale and it is offered very much sold as seen. Deciphering the frame number, it appears to be an XLH1200 EVO built around 1993. The vendor removed the starter motor when he first bought the bike, and that is still missing, although there is a box of assorted spare parts included. An interesting and challenging winter project.
