Harley-Davidson Sportster description

VERY RARE

Sportster

XL-A

From 1970 to 1980 Harley-Davidson made six models of Sportsters

2G = XLT

3A = XLH

  4A = XLCH

4E = XLS

 7F = XLCR

                                    4D = XLA   (Military or Police)

Note; XL-A’s were made specifically for the military up to 1965.

Starting in 1966 the XLA was made only after special orders from Military or Police (Foreign and Domestic)

This is the reason 1965 were the last PRODUCTION bike made for the Military. (Only Military or Police could order XL-A’s)

 

This Bike has a clear Title and matching Engine and Frame numbers

4D52301H2

You can get information from Harley-Davidson about all their models except XL-A’s.  That’s because of the Governments confidential rules and regulations.

 

I was told by a reliable source that about 50 XL-a’s were made in 1972.  Some for the US military and some for the German Police.

 

This is a PROJECT bike. It does not run.  It was taken apart in preparation for restoration. I purchased the bike in a basket. I assembled the bike to show it as a whole bike and to be able to roll it around. The motor turns over freely but is in need of a rebuild.  Some of the parts are not correct i.e. I was told it has the wrong carburetor and the gas tank mounting holes do not match up. The whole bike is in need of complete restoration.

HOWEVER,

This bike restored it’s original Military or Police condition would be a great piece to add to a collection and would certainly be worth a lot of money.

 

When the bike was taken apart it had (and is recorded as original ) 15,342 miles.  

 

An opportunity like this doesn’t come along very often.

 

SHIPPING  $595  anywhere in the lower 48 States except NY Bouroughs. (Add $300 to Bouroughs)

OVERSEAS BUYERS WELCOME

The bike is in Walnut, CA (Los Angeles County) and is available for pick up.

 

The Bike has a North Carolina Title.  Signed off and notarized by the original owner and my name on the reverse as the first transferee.

 

I have a very low reserve on this bike but I would sell it before the auction ends for $6,000 or a reasonable offer.

 

QUESTIONS please call Stuart 909 239-6199

CARB Reveals 2014 Harley-Davidson Models, Including Some “Cool” Surprises

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

The California Air Resource Board has issued executive orders on a number of 2014 Harley-Davidson models, revealing much of the Motor Company’s upcoming product lineup. While most of the models listed are familiar, the documents do reveal some gems including possible signs of the long-rumored new liquid-cooled Harley-Davidson engine. The first and least surprising reveal is the disappearance of the 1584cc Twin Cam 96 engine.

Louisiana Bill Updates Maximum Handlebar Height Legislation

Thu, 17 May 2012

Louisiana state lawmakers have approved a bill that would change the maximum height of motorcycle handlebars. Current state law restricts handlebar height to no more than 15 inches above the seat, a somewhat arbitrary level, but a common choice with 17 other states. The House has voted 87-0 in favor of Senate Bill 582 to change the maximum height to the rider’s shoulder level, as measured while sitting on the seat.
