1970 Harley Davidson XLCH Ironhead Sportster Project

The Harley-Davidson Ironhead Sportster is the quintessential American motorcycle—a raw, mechanical, and visceral machine that has served as the foundation for countless iconic choppers and bobbers. For builders who crave that classic V-twin character, finding a solid, titled starting point is the holy grail. This 1970 Ironhead Sportster project is exactly that: a titled bike where the hard work has already been done.

This isn't a ground-up rebuild requiring a complete engine overhaul and endless chasing of parts. Instead, it's the perfect "mini-project" for a builder looking to bypass the biggest headaches and get straight to the fun part of final assembly and customization. The heart of this project is its 900cc V-twin engine. The motor has been professionally rebuilt.

Adding to that solid foundation, the bike has just received a fresh tune-up. The ignition timing has been set, the valves have been adjusted, and a CycleX twin carburetor system has been installed, offering a performance upgrade. The sale also includes a huge head start on parts, with a new rear tire, multiple extra gas tanks, a new chain and battery, and a convenient spin-on oil filter conversion kit. This is a rare opportunity to build the Ironhead of your dreams without the usual nightmares.
