Hello
Ive recently sort of inherited what i believe to be a 1971 Harley Davidson XLCH1000 sportster bike. I believe this because the first two digits of the VIN are 4A and the last two are H1, and on the markings of the bike there is a orange and black shield with the American Iron logo on it..
This bike has last been on the road circa 1982 and it sat in a locked trailer for over 11 years. This is my first bike and Im figuring it will be a decent winter project.
Does anyone have . Any ideas on good books or videos to purchase and have handy as I begin to try to get this thing running?
I do like fooling with older trucks and im familiar with sources for parts for those vehicles.. is there a couple of good reputable parts dealers for these kinds of older bikes?
