Who are you kidding?611 original miles.Guess the rear cylinder fins just fell off.Should tighten jam nut on shifter linkage.You will never get that price with the aftermarket parts installed,even a true original would wait a long time.Nice try,take it to a national meet and have it scored!

PITTGUY Read the listing,The price listed is NADA for "Excellent" condition,which it deserves. Which is why the next sentence states "Were taking offers". Dont want it,dont reply or leave the negativity for yer ol' lady!

I see from youre signature that this bike isnt even listed.We are selling??Seen too many posts like this.No Museum that Im aware of would let this thing threw the door!Whats right about it?You sir have not done youre homework while throwing this bike together,using J&P parts doesnt make it musum worthyor you have been suckered in and trying to recoup your loss.1944 was a war yr,rubber,chrome,alum and so were scarce.This bike has all of this.The colors are wrong,The front wheel is wrong.The exh just to name a few.The WL and G models were the only models available for civilians and Im not sure sure even HD knows how many there were.The only chrome for this yr was the nameplate and even that was very very few.No stainless strips on fenders,hand grips black plastic,steel floor board inserts,high mounted tool box,steel kicker pedal,natural finish on engine,lifter blocks oil pump,etc.The linkert was a silver finish up to 43 and then only after war.

Nope.not listed. Not even registered, ive got seven bikes total but only three you need to about. In 1944 HD produced 11,531 WLA, 5356 WLC and only 57 WL's, which makes this bike a fairly rare ride for the age. As far as losses, nope......no losses,i would never get involved with a loss which is why this is the last reply to you.You seem to have quite a bit of interest for a gentleman thats not interested in buying, typical tire kicker and a complete waste of myenergy. The bike isfor sale with nothing to hide,pictures say it all and 35 or so more if needed. .Either pay up or shut up,sorry pal but keep test ridin your jap ****
