    Beat up old Harley Sporty 883

    Clean title in hand. ~22k miles. It's pretty beat up (Aren't they all?) 4 speed, first year of the God-Save-Us-All EVO motor, runs and rides well (I think?), clear turn signals. S&S Carb, rare Corbin seat, new tires, new clutch and basket, some sort of straight pipes.
    May need lifters. I don't know anything about Harleys. Someone told me it has forward controls on it.
    That's all I can really say about it



    Asking 1500$

    I just wish it wasn't a "piglet". The ribbing I will get from my Father might be too much.

    I like the shorter stroke motors better, believe it or not. I'm just kicking tires like the rest of the brokedicks on here though.

    10 replies on a beat up Sporty? LOL. But it's an '86 Evo 883 with a 4 speed.

    Please post up if I'm stepping on anybody's toes. I'll step aside if one of you chowderheads fine folks should be ahead of me in line.

    Already chatting with the owner. Just seeing if we can make a deal but don't let that stop you.

    Out. Realized I wouldn't be riding with straight pipes, so I'd need an exhaust, etc. (Apologies for the trash talk above... but it was kinda fun!.)
