Harley-Davidson Sportster description

1996 Harley Davidson Sportster XL 1200 Custom. 30,000 mis, well maintained, clean CA title and current registration, runs good I ride it everyday. Only reason I'm selling is I'm upgrading to a big twin this spring. Lot of upgrades/mods, very clean, real header turner. Upgrades include: custom paint with ghost flames Z handle bars chrome spike air cleaner wrapped exhaust with Cobra slip on mufflers Corbin soft tail seat 11" solid struts in place of shocks "Live to Ride" series mirrors, derby and timing covers, caliper insert, and grips chopped rear fender with bobber tail light bullet rear turn signals chrome forward controls The only issues it has is the right turn signal doesn't always work (the self cancel mechanism in the switch is malfunctioning), the front master cylinder has a small leak ($80 to replace), and it has two small oil leak on the motor not even enough to drip. Overall it's in attractive shape and I always get compliments. I have over 6 grand invested will let it go for $4,500 cash firm. Will consider trading for a extended cab pickup, sports car, or classic muscle car of equal value. No Junk! Reply to this ad or call/text. If the ad is still up then I still have it!

Dave Grohl Drums to the Sound of a Harley-Davidson Motorcycle

Fri, 31 Jul 2009

I’ve got a lot of respect for Dave Grohl.  He’s amazingly talented and very driven.  Even after Nirvana, the guy is still kicking and in the spotlight with the Foo Fighters and the millions of other side projects he’s done (ie: Queens of the Stone Age). Apparently he’s also a big motorcycle guy. Harley-Davidson did a little video on Dave, featuring him drumming on a snare drum to the exhaust pipes of a Harley-Davidson.  The seven minute video goes on about how Mr Grohl bought his first motorcycle when the Nirvana album “Nevermind” started to become big.
