The $1 Harley
So, I purchased a 1982 Harley fxr from a family friend for $1. It needs plenty of work. It hasn't ran for close to 6 years. I will be posting all my fun and adventures. Any help or advice will always be welcomed.

End of day 1 tear down.
So far:
tank needs to be cleaned of all rust
Throttle cables need to be replaced
Choke cable and spring need to be replaced
Seat is shot
Speedo cable is garbage
Air filter was disgusting
Carb rebuild
Plugs/wire/coil/battery
All fluids need to be changed
Brake pads
Fuel lines
Ignition wires are broke
Brake light wires are broke
New bulbs
Piece of cake
