76 iron head from my daughter it is my project bike.
good runner tho. would like ant and all suggestions as to what I should do or can do to it. pics also
thanks will get some pics of it up soon

 

You can do a lot to them. You really need to sit down with your daughter and figure out what she likes. The stock look or modified.

I myself prefer the rat bike look. Ape hangers, hardtail, etc. A lot of people think you should keep them stock, and that's fine. Just not my style.

Would like to see some pictures of it.

 

would love to see pics of any anll iron heads
is yours a hard tail or did you make one with the bolt on or weld on rear ??
the bike was my daughters ( ex husband bought it for her) now it's mine so anything goes it is a kick only

 

Mine is not a hardtail. I am working on saving the money to buy one and weld it on.

Sounds like you got an XLCH. Thats a good find. Should be a great bike for yah.

Here's mine.

My first and only store bought HD was a '76 XLCH.

We were looking for a 'new' ride for Momma to move up to, from her starter, GZ 250.
My idea was to take an Ironhead, White with red and blue striping down center, chrome the chit outta it, and it would be a RWB copy of a Nightster, called a "Whitester".
But the more I thought 'bout sending her 35 miles to work on an Ironhead, the less I liked it. She has a hard time remembering to check oil in her cage. So I ended up finding the 96 Sporty, she got for Christmas.
2217 Actual miles, $4900

 

thanks grump as you probably know I have a 14 std. for my everyday rider just bought this to get it out of my daughters garage and to givve me a project bike .
any and all suggestions and help is greatly appreciated..

 

I'm trying to get this together....It's a 73 xlch

 

that is looking pretty good so far is that an aftermarker frame or stock with the weld on hard tail?
I am new to sporties so any dumb questions I ask just take it for what it's worth
