Harley-Davidson Other description

Here is your only chance to own Nick Noltes Harley. Nick had this bike built for himself 25 years ago. Nicks stomping grounds are the serpentine canyons of Malibu, where for decades he and other hardcore riders, like Steve McQueen, would race to the Rock Store to relax and escape the bright lights of Hollywood. 

Their rides had to be light, nimble, and quick, so Nick chose a reliable evolution 883 Sportster with the 4 speed trans for power.
The chassis is a rigid frame, with just enough rake for the springer fork to have optimum geometry. 
The brakes are performance machine discs, front and rear.
Western bend handlebars and a sprung leather solo saddle provide all day comfort.
Leather saddlebags carry a weekend worth of 'supplies'.
The bike has been kept stored indoors, however, Nicks pet raven did perch over the front wheel, causing some surface rust on the chrome. I guess bird sh-t will do that! There is no speedometer, so actual mileage is unknown.  The motor is tight and strong, lots of compression. The clutch and transmission work great. The carb is rebuilt and jetted perfectly for easy starting , and smooth power delivery. The battery is new. The chain is new. This bike is ready to ride, and has been, up until a couple months ago, when Nick decided to hang up his spurs.
This is a bikers bike, simple, raw, pure. It speaks loudly of its owners personality, and has been a vital tool in maintaining Nicks' sanity in an insane world. He would like to share the ride of an epic lifetime, so bid to own! 
There is only one bike that has seen what this bike has seen. Don't miss this chance!

Comes with a clear California Special Construction title in Nick Noltes' name.

Please call 310-722-6916 with any questions. 
I will happily assist with shipping anywhere in the world.

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.

Among the machines is a first-year Harley-Davidson Sportster believed to be the 10th XL883 produced in 1957, a 1933 Harley VLE police bike that saw actual duty on the streets of Chicago before being cast in the 1987 Kevin Costner gangster movie, “The Untouchables,” and an authentic and unrestored 1947 Harley Knucklehead wearing period aftermarket accessories. Wayne “Pappy” Pierce started his Harley-Davidson dealership in 1957, run out of a one-room tin shed in DeKalb, Illinois.

2013-2014 Harley-Davidson Breakout Recalled for Faulty Fuel Indicators

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

Harley-Davidson is recalling 2013-2014 Breakout models, including CVO versions, because the fuel level indication system may not be properly reading the correct amounts of fuel. As of this publishing, recalls have been announced by government agencies in Australia and Canada; the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has not yet posted a recall but U.S.-based members of the Harley-DavidsonForums.com report American dealerships have already started receiving recall bulletins. According to a recall announcement by Transport Canada, some Breakout and CVO Breakout models may run out of fuel despite the fuel and range indicators indicating there is still enough fuel in the tank.
