Default Please help!!

My dad passed and left me his 76 xlch its not running atm but was told its close to being done. He built it from the ground up. I know it was bored to a 1340, has xr-750 cams, can anyone tell me what to expect out of this thing if i try and fire it? I looked in the cylinders through the plug holes and everything looks almost brand new. Has good compression and feels tight. Any other info you need just ask really want to finish this bike as it means the world to me.

Kudos to your dad. Sounds like an adventuresome fellow.
I have no idea how a cam used on the xr 750's functions with a large bore.
I'm betting your dad did his homework.
Why is it not running? What's missing?
You can probably expect one heckuva ride when completed.
Make your dad proud. Pull the choke, turn on the key and hit the start button
