Very well bought!

That's a great find! Looks to be in great condition.

When I was looking for my first HD back in '85ish, there were a few of these '79 era bikes around, and I almost bought one.

I think you are going to love that daym thing!

Seriously? Way under 5K is a STEAL.

Hey guys been away for a few days. Here is a pic of other things that came with the bike. NOS oil, oil filter, plugs, owners manual, warrantee book, pre delivery paper,multiple purchase reciepts and some service work orders. One was for a kicker kit. I thought the kicker was stock on on this unless it needed to be replaced. And for those wondering 2K was the price.I will be posting some more as the get it running process begins. Thanks for all the replies.

well i'd say you got lucky but it sounds like you've been working on getting this guy to sell for a few years so i guess you earned it

looking at the service sheets it seems there were a few issues , nothing unusual for an AMF bike , and not as much as either of mine back in the day .

great bike , have fun with it !

2K???!Sweet! Love the shovels. Hard to find one with all fins intact too. And those oil cans...don't open them! Those are becoming collector's items like your bike! Keep 'er stock and DON'T SELL IT!
