I have already lost the uncomfortable Le Pera seat in favor of an original HD buddy seat that is more period correct and more comfortable. I plan to get a solo spring seat and a luggage rack for it later. Lovin' havin' one. It's been 29 years since I have had one and it wasn't a Harley.

You have all of the original equipment as far as I can tell. Correct fork boots, headlight and fenders and the center mount oil tank that is correct for a kick start only. I see that you have the distributor top mount and a dry clutch with a ribbed timing cover, so that makes the bike a 1969 or earlier. What year did you say it was? Hold on to that bike. It is getting very difficult to find one like that with all of the original equipment such as yours, so you have a good one..........pg _____________________________ Rolling down the highway on two wheels since 1957...

When i put them on nothing seemed to fit properly on the left side so had to get a new plate made. Thanks Paul    iron75@kol.co.nz  (in reply to GriffinXLCH) Post #: 172

It looked mean, but I always had to carry a set of spark plugs with me cause it would start farting at about every 50 miles or less sometimes. Dang I tried everything to fix the problem with no luck. Even overhauled the engine top and bottom and rejetted the s&s carb. No Dice. Finally got rid of it. I wish I would have kept it cause it sure was a relic and it was paid for. Would of been fun these days to cruise it just for old times sakes. Those were some good years for me as well as bad. Whoooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. (in reply to mudpuddle) Post #: 173

After a little trimming, I'll test-ride it some to verify the mounting and then remove it and have it painted black to match. I prefer the looks of a naked bike, but something like this that's easily removable would be nice for those long trips.

RE: Lets See Some Pics Of Ironheads - 1/9/2008 2:46:12 PM    renotunes   Posts: 18 Joined: 9/6/2007 Status: offline Here is a couple of updated pics of a bike I have had for 6 mons. I got some Christmas cash for some parts and got them off Ebay. After a ride and a bath this weekend, I installed the fork bag, saddlebags and supports. She looks more like the ones I saw when I was 16 in the last days of Hendrix. I put a chain guard on it yesterday, and I have a new NOS Screamin Eagle carb I found on Ebay that will need to be rejetted and installed soon. I also replaced the Lepera seat that was on it when I purchased it, w/ an NOS buddy seat I found on Ebay a few weeks back. Enjoying it emensely.
