How do you do....

[FastSport]

Hi All

just joined in July and looking forward to 'meeting' you all. Harley rider since 1976 and now rebuilding old Sportsters to keep me out of trouble.

I hope to benefit from the combined wisdom of so many riders who know more than I ever will!

Best wishes

Colin

Welcome Colin! There are many great folks on the forum, eager to help with a question, share knowledge or dig through their extensive literature to shed light on an obscure topic or motorcycle.

Hi Paul

thanks for the welcome - not sure how many members I'll encounter here in the Highlands but I can travel!

Here a pic of my latest acquisition - a very original 1969 XLCH. Whether to keep it original as is, or restore over time.....

Yes, a great site. I use it a lot as that level of knowledge is hard to come by around here!

Nice I like the magneto. I am planning on running one on my 741 when I get that far.

Welcome!

A few of us like sportsters around here.

I have a problem with building "slow" sportsters:

A huge chunk of the Old K Model and Sportster Research Group, which is behind that Harley K model site, will be gathered at Davenport in just a few weeks. Lunch is at noon on Friday at the Raino Brother's spot -- come on by and meet some of the folks behind the site in person. Just don't be surprised if you get sucked into a discussion about ANY obscure part of a sporty.

I believe there will be at least one KHK and likely my 59XLH on the upcoming Detroit Lakes run . . . though I'll likely take my Trident too.
