Harley Davidson XL BZ 883 Sportster
Current WOF and REGO
I have owned this bike since 2008
Selling as the motor is in need of a rebuild ,the bike runs but the mechanics at Wellington Motorcycles suspect crankshaft (wobble/loose) problems are the culprit ,though the engine has not been opened up to see if this is the cause...theyve said it could be more or less that needs to be done .
-When running it tends to idle rough and blow light black smoke irregularly
Bike has not been ridden since finding this out (1 month ago )
Would be a steal of a project for someone with the time and money to spend on it ,but sadly i just dont think i would ever get around to it!
-------------------
5 speed gearbox
recent carb /general service
HD Peanut Tank - [approx 8ltr capacity]
-Really economical bike, over 40mpg easily
1200 Keith Black conversion (bored barrels,pistons and gaskets )
