Need a little input on where to find some vintage parts for 1977 XLCR 1000. It`s apart and in the process of restoring but still need a couple things. Mufflers are very hard to find if not impossible. Not like anything I have found yet

Where in NE Jawja? I'm a frequent visitor to Helen, Dillard, and points North . . . In fact I should be up there around 11/1 to try my XLS on the Cherohala, BRP, and other obligatory points.

About one hour N.E of Atl. Near Athens. JP Vintage did not have anything close to it. I have tried V-Twin also. Guess I will have to get lucky and find someone who has some stuff stashed away in their garage. That`s how I found the head-pipe for it.

Best resource for XLCR parts is:
http://www.ironheadmotors.com/ or
http://www.sportyspecialties.com/
There is some dealers in Europe that have XLCR parts but they are not allowed sending them to US ( factory has denied it)
Send me a email, let see if I can help... I have 1978 XLCR-1000 check my garage...

I think Sepi mentioned this but give Kirk a call at Sporty Specialties 714-879-0500. He has been dealing in old hard to find Sportser parts for decades.

If you are looking mufflers, you need to notice that there is 3 different types of mufflers.
2 sets of black (CA models and other states) in -77s one in -78 (new quiet??) . Then there is -79 normal sportster with cromed mufflers. Check OEM# what you are looking for.

Dennis Corso should have vintage repop mufflers. From their website: Our parts are used on almost every Harley-Davidson restoration including bikes shown at Antique Motorcycle Club of America (AMCA) meets and on many of the antique bikes in the Harley-Davidson Motor Company Museum. While we specialize in parts for restoration, we do make some custom mufflers and lines. All of our parts are made in the USA — most in beautiful Kent, Ohio. They are available from Harley-Davidson dealers, independent motorcycle shops, directly from us, and from many fine dealers on the Internet. http://www.denniscorso.com/mufflers.htm
