The overall condition of this machine is very nice, with the paint being done sometime in the late 80's or early 90's.
As far as the motor, frame, etc. everything is nice but not perfect, so the rest of the bike could very well be mostly original. Everything from the frame to the motor to the fenders are correct, and as far as I can tell, just
the way it came from the factory. The tires are in good condition but not new. The engine and transmission are original to each other and are in perfect running condition. The bike kicks over and starts very easily. A brand new battery was also just installed.
The paint on the tank is in nice condition, as you can see in the photos. The seat pan is an original pan which has been recovered in a period correct covering. Overall, the chrome is in nice condition, and not in need of any type of work unless you want a perfect bike you âll never ride. The Indian on the road is very easy to handle, and rides down the road tight, with no shakes, shimmies, or rattles. It shifts and accelerates
smoothly and holds the road as it should. It âs a great machine to ride and enjoy as well as something you can take to a show. Again, there is absolutely nothing that needs to be done to this machine to ride, show, and enjoy it.
This motorcycle is being sold as is! Clean title.

Stock 1969 âSandcast â Honda CB750 in excellent condition â not a modern caf é or recent restoration, but the real thing.
⢠All key Sandcast features: cut front fender, wrinkle tank, horn on the left, recessed ignition switch (with 2 original keys), un-numbered exhaust pipes (not HM300), smooth mirror tips, black kill switch, no-fin
oil filter cover, Koito headlight, and very rare frame notch for steering damper. ⢠Included are the original owner and shop manuals, handwritten notes for tune-ups and oil changes by the original owner in the 1970s, and detailed service records for my annual maintenance oil changes.
⢠All parts are original except the usual maintenance items: tires, battery, plugs, chain, etc. Only engine modification is a transistor ignition system which starts runs far better than the original points, which are included in case you want to go back to pure stock. ⢠Other replacement parts are the exhausts: the original inners rusted out and were replaced with a set of Lotus-Roots from Yamiya
in Japan (that cost far more then the original bike did). It has been run on ethanol-free gas only. ⢠Everything on the bike works well: engine, trans, lights, gauges, horn, clutch, brakes, etc.
It âs been garaged all the years I've owned it, has neverbeen ridden in the rain. Clean title.

1972 Kawasaki H2 750 Mach IV.
Everything on the bike was original equipment except a couple of the turn signals. The tires where original equipment Yokohama âs, 1972 vintage, and still showing significant tread (I have photos). The pistons and rings were (and remain) standard bore, with relatively tight ring end gaps (I installed new Kawasaki
std. rings). The top end had never been off the motor. The exhaust system was original. The chain was original. The brake pads and shoes were original and showed little wear (the rear wheel had never been off the bike). This H2 appeared to have had a short but exciting life during those relatively few miles.
The original owner must have used a lot of chain lube or kept the chain oiler filled. I suspect the owner lived on a dirt road and must have owned a dog judging from the amount of dog hair embedded in the oily grunge on the underside of the bike. The stock exhaust system was still installed and had some typical rust, a few small dents and a minor scrape. The left side engine cover
had a shallow scrape which I sanded out. I was surprised the bike had good compression when I received it. Restoration included: New rings, standard bore. OEM std.
pistons in the bike. New base and head gaskets of course. New bronze clutch actuator New clutch pusher with bearing Powder coated frame. New steering head bearings. New bronze swingarm bushings (the originals were not worn out). Original rims were re-chromed. Yes, the stamped numbers were preserved. New Buchannan stainless steel spokes. New wheel bearings (really did not need, but easy to replace since wheels were apart). New Dunlop K70 tires. New fork tubes (originals were slightly pitted). New fork seals. Re-chromed; brake
pedal, kick starter, handlebar (was not bent! ). New exhaust system.
New chain. New rear sprocket (original one was NOT worn out but had some scrape marks). New wiring harness. New left handlebar switch. New ignition switch. New horn. New Li-ion battery. New seat. Re-built the brake caliper (new piston, seal, new pads). New master cylinder. New brake hoses. New turn signals and stalks. New air cleaner boot. New air filter. New cables; clutch, throttle/carburetor. New grips. New mirrors. Various rubber bits/grommets etc. were replaced. New paint. New steering head sticker (exact reproduction of original). Build date 5/72.

Exceptionally high caliber restoration of an early serial number 1938 Harley Davidson Knucklehead.
A great deal of time, money and effort was spent to make this bike as correct as possible using original Harley Davidson Factory parts, down to the finest details. The motor cases are pristine condition with matching belly numbers, correct original
heads, cylinders, and M5 carburetor with original air cover. The oil pump is the correct 1936 to early 1938 style with unmachined boss and early 1938 only pressure switch nipple. The transmission, including case, lid, kicker cover, kicker arm and clutch lever are proper for the year.
The frame is a rare, early 1938 with a number 2 casting mark on the headstock, and it has the brazed in piece on the brake stay. The front end main fork has the proper forward swept legs and keyway in the damper hole. The spring fork is correct with a #3 casting mark, and the crown nut is the early type with built in bearing race. The frame and forks were laser jigged and thoroughly examined prior to finishing.
Sheet metal is all original, finished in 1938 Hollywood Green with Gold and Black Pin Striping. The entire dash, including the base, cover, switch, speedometer and even the lens covers are OEM.
The Headlight is an original Cycleray, including an NOS bezel, reflector, and # 5 lens. The horn is an original 9 bolt with NOS face, the front fender light and tail light are original including glass. Handlebars are original early brazed type, spirals are NOS with fresh chrome, and cables are also NOS HD. Both crash bars, floorboards, clutch assembly, big toe brake pedal and NOS Pads are factory original as well as the riveted chain guard. The step hubs are pristine originals, the spokes are NOS
with fresh cad, and the rims are original Kelsey Hayes 705âs.
I believe you would be hard pressed to find a restored 1938 Knucklehead as original and factory correct as this. Bikes like this are few, and do not come up for sale on the open market often, so if you are looking for a fine quality pre war Knucklehead, don ât pass up the opportunity to own one. Clean title.

This includes for example, even though not visible, replacement of the swingarm bushings and collar adding new grease fittings and fresh grease.
In addition, I take apart the speedo gear, vapor hone it and install a new seal and fresh grease. These are difficult things to notice but you can be assured that when you buy my motorcycles that this
has been done. I replace things where necessary with original Honda parts and use the best aftermarket sources where Honda parts are no longer available. This K0 comes with a new Honda coil and new Honda caps for example. I used exclusively Nr. â8â original Honda bolts with all hardware re-zinced.
The result is a vintage motorcycle in as close to factory new condition from back in the day as you will find. The top end has been professionally re-built, in this case with new pistons and rings and the carburetors have been overhauled. The motor runs fantastic so you can enjoy it on the road or if you prefer of course, put it in your museum. Everything works like it should. When I found
this motorcycle, it didn ât have the original tank and rest of the body parts so I bought the proper wrinkle tank and other missing body parts from Japan for this project.
Everything else is original to the bike and has been painstakingly restored. Original Fenders repaired and re-chromed, original gauges restored. The bike also has a new seat with red sponge like the original and a new no number exhaust. The bike comes with the, all original, in museum quality manual as well as the tool kit.

1961 Harley Davidson Duo Glide Motorcycle This is an exceptional original paint, unrestored, 1961 Harley Davidson.
One family owned its entire life until now, was purchased from the 81 year old son whose father purchased new. As you can see from the pictures below it is in exceptional condition for 55 year old used motorcycle. This bike is about
as original as a 55 year old motorcycle you will ever find and is completely unmolested with original paint on all parts with all original chrome and all original plating and accessories. This ole Duo Glide is basically the same as the day it was brought from a Los Angeles dealership.
Everything on this bike is as it came from the factory with the exception of three minor items. The original owner lost the battery cover during its dry storage every winter and was replaced with an old aftermarket one seen below. Second, the white section of the buddy seat has been replaced although not the white skirt part as it yellowed and cracked. Third, the top clear section of the windscreen yellowed
and was also replaced by the original owner. It runs very well with no smoke or leaks, the transmission shifts with the familiar Panhead feel and goes through all gears exactly as it should.
It starts easily and runs great plus all the electrics appear to be in full working condition, including all lights, horn, charging system etc. Neutral light does not come on could but could just be the bulb. These late model Panheads have a nice bit of torque, and it will go as fast as you could possibly want to go on an old machine.

Iâm the third owner of this bike; it's got the " Toaster" tank and it âs the Long Wheelbase version.the wheelbase is 3â longer than normal for improved handling.
The first owner rode it infrequently for the 35 years he owned it. His son sold it without riding it when his father died. The second owner is a good friend of mine
who rebuilds bikes as a hobby; he stripped off a few aftermarket parts and rebuilt/replaced what few parts of the bike needed that. He rode it for fewer than 1000 miles. I bought it from him as my FIRST BIKE. The entire bike is as it was when it rolled off the assembly line (including a complete rebuild of the final drive a couple weeks ago) with 3 exceptions:1) The ignition system and wire set have just been shifted to electronic ignition.
It âs an EME EDL-BOIGNS Digital ignition system to replace the unreliable mechanical system of âcondenser and points â that get out of perfect alignment fairly soon after tuning and begin causing the engine to misfire. The changes are completely
internal and not visible even to the trained eye.2) the handlebar is a narrower one that was only sold standard in Europe, not in the U. S.3) the left mirror is an aftermarket one, longer than normal, to permit the rider to see behind him.
Important safety measure!4) the installed seat is custom, but the original comes with the bike. I removed it to have it restored, but couldn ât find someone trustworthy to do the work (flaky, didn ât follow up with me)

Rare 1945 Harley Davidson Knucklehead.
Very few produced because of the war and I have only seen 1-2 others. This bike is mostly HD parts and pieces. A few repop items, but I have access to OEM parts if you want to take this one to the next level. Fresh fluids, wiring / electrical works as it should, and it has new tires. There are a couple
of very minor blemishes on the bike, but otherwise in excellent condition. No dents or dings of any kind. NO rust. No repairs to the HD frame, either. The bike runs great and has about 293 miles on it since it was restored.

1973 Kawasaki Z1 900 Survivor I acquired this Z1 from a friend who had it since new.
My first thought was to restore it, but I decided to keep it as original as possible. They are only original once. I replaced the battery, changed the oil, bled the front brake and checked the pads, cleaned and adjusted the carburetors, replaced the rubber intake
runners, replaced the sparkplugs, checked the valve clearances (found in spec), replaced the mirrors with aftermarket copies, replaced the sealed beam head lamp, recovered the badly torn seat with an original copy kit, replaced the tires and tubes with Dunlop K70's, replaced the fuel tank, side covers, tail cover with a newly painted Japanese Doremi body kit in original brown metal flake and orange.
I have kept and am including the original mirrors, body panels and tank for the new owner for future restoration consideration. Everything else, including the rare exhaust system is original for this machine. Included with the original body and tank is the original owners manual and a few
of the original tools (sparkplug socket, closed wrench, shock wrench, extension, screw driver). I did clean and polish all of the chrome and frame parts and found them to be in great condition.
The left outer muffler has a small worn through scrape underneath, (see picture), but is repairable. The original paint on the frame does show minor scrapes and wear as a machine this old will. The wiring loom is in good condition without any repairs or modifications. The tachometer is slow to respond but seems to get better the more I run it. The engine starts easily, idles well, and runs through all five speeds as designed. It does not smoke and has no bad noises. There aren't any oil leaks. The clutch works smoothly without slipping or grabbing.

You are looking at a 1967 BMW R50/2 with a R60/2 engine.
The bike in my opinion looks to be original paint in most areas. The VIN plate and frame number match. When running the lights and speedometer worked and the bike ran on both cylinders. I am going to list it as a non running project, since I feel the carbs could use some adjustments. Bike is titled in my name.. This is a rare and unique bike so don't miss out! 100 miles from engine restoration.
