Just bought myself a Harley none runner basket case, imported recently so not yet registered here, 93 sportster frame etc fitted with a ironhead 1200, got to collect it next week.

Didn't want anything original as I want to build a fat tyre springer hardtail, not bothered about it being a none runner, it turns over and has compression,  I can fix most things anyway.

 

It is rough but I only need the engine and part of the frame

  • I got around to collecting the motor 2 weeks or so ago, all looks good but haven't had any time at all to do anything with it   I did get a really nice brand new hardtail frame off of a guy

  • I can't wait to go get it, way too busy this week   After doing some reading I suppose I could have picked an easier motor to rebuild...., ah well     and even more reading casts doubt on it

  • Got into it today as well as collecting a Fender Telecaster for my brother in laws 70 birthday present  (He lives in Denmark, road trip in 2 weeks)   Jeez this thing is a dog, 93 sportster f

Not much been really busy with work, first time I've logged into here in 2 months or more. 

Just haven't got the room in our workshop to even get the engine parts out of the boxes, I did get stainless bolts for the cases though 3 months or so ago 

And me being stupid I bought a REO Whistler.... Well actually a AM General M50 (same thing)   with the White 7.8 multifuel motor, sick of putting well over £500 a month of diesel in my ram,  this year I'm at £7600 ish up to now, my ram does enough to the gallon it's just the miles I'm doing.

Whistler is  on 46 hydraulic oil and I'm in the job to get gallons of that and the best bit, no vehicle tax, no safety check per year and allowed into all low emissions zones due to age, no special license due to age and cheap Insurance,  downside is slow and no p/steering  actually logged into here to ask if anyone else has one or knows anything about them
