We have a rare non-molested 1969 Harley-Davidson XLCH 900 Sportster for your consideration. The XLCH was HD’s “competition hot” and was released in 1958. Sony Barger of the Hell’s Angels owned a ’65. 1969 was the last year for this classic old school motorcycle. Most of these machines were chopped as was the thing in the day. There is no battery or electric start. There is a system for kick starting these bikes as there is no float bowl. Google it. It’s not a bike for the timid or folks with leg or knee injuries. It’s a big boy’s ride. The motorcycle is owned by my 69 year old heavy equipment mechanic friend. The machine is in excellent and mechanically sound condition. There are 30,000 original miles on it. This motorcycle came with the Akron wheel option as well as the optional drag pipes. It has the Fairbanks Morris Harley magneto, not Joe Hunt. The machine has some minor upgrades. This includes a 38 mm Bendix adjustable jet carburetor, 3/16th stainless steel Buchannan spokes and a La Pree seat. The clutch has been changed to wet, so lubrication comes from the engine. The original factory seat shown in the pictures goes with the bike. The machine comes with extra spare parts such as mag, carb and generator-the original repair manual an old add any anything else we find related to it in the shop. Bike has been repainted in 1969 DuPont Emron factory Blue. The bike was to be auctioned in Houston Texas as a benefit for a cancer patient, but they never paid the donation fee, so we are now putting it into auction. Too many other bikes to keep up. NADA lists prices from $4,260 for poor condition to $16,705 for excellent. Specs: 4 cylinder OHV 883 cc 96.8 mm stroke 45 Degree V type 55 HP @ 6,300 RPM 9:1 Compression 4-Speed Thanks for looking- good Luck Bidding- email with any questions.
