1996 is the year Harley updated the Sportster and they
haven’t changed much except for the gas tank and oil bottle.
This oil bottle is a one of a kind custom mustang style with a
polished aluminum insert. I’m the second owner, I bought this
Sportster from a young lady in Charlestown as an 883 and had it
upgraded to a 1200 at that point I powder coated the cylinders.
That is a specialty that is not seen on many bikes because the
work involved. The complete rebuild of this bike was done in
2005 that was the 1200 upgrade, new cables, brake lines, a 180
rear tire kit and a Seeger raked front end kit. |

The rake is now 42.5 degrees at 8 inches over. The rear
fender is custom with a built in LED break light and a side
mount license plate and break light. The tail lights have been
converted to running light/ turn signals. Harleys are turn
signal only. The paint work is by In the Weeds Customs the
finest anywhere. This bike starts on the first fire and has been
trouble free for all of its 15,000 miles, 4,000 on the engine
since 2005. Accessories include, Windshield and quick connect
luggage rack. vin #1hd4cam14ty204144 |
