This 1963 XLCH is to the best of my knowledge mostly original. The engine case numbers match. I cannot find a frame stamp indicating it is a 1963 frame. I do know that the gauges and engine side cover are not 1963 and believe the wheels are not original. The bike has obviously been painted at some time and parts have been chromed. When I purchased the bike I rode it one time around the block. Kick start only, has a magneto... so no battery. It ran well but since that time it has been stored in a climate controlled room as a show piece. Please e-mail me with any questions. The buyer is responsible for shipping and all shipping expenses.
