 I would second this suggestion. I had a Subaru that exhibited identical

I've seen them go for as little as $3000 in mint. 3000-3500 mint.

In the condition that you described assuming nothing else wrong
I'd say $1500 to $2000 depending on the condtion of the forks.

I'm surprised more people don't know the point, as popular (and easy to
participate in) as Quayle bashing is now. The above is a paraphrase from
Quayle himself. In an interview, asked about whether he intended to run
for President in the next election, Quayle responded "We'll worry about
this one first, then there will be time to worry about '94".

     Nope, I hate orange. I'd just rather ride the damn thing than be down to

:-)  Yeah, it would probably still work in a real top-o-the-head type
crash too.  But helmets are one of those things where you can't always
see the damage.  I'm pretty sure I could tell whether or not my leather

There is nothing wrong with putting two rods on one crankpin.  It is
common practice in V-engines and is responsible for the compactness
and light weight of V configurations.

DOHC is not the be-all and end-all of cylinder heads.  For a V-twin
engine you would have four camshafts and two independant cam drive
systems for two cylinders.  This is obscenely complex and would only
be considered where valve float (or the need for a marketing buzzword
like DOHC) becomes the limiting factor in the design.  It is
excessivly heavy and requires larger, taller, and heavier cylinder
heads.  It requires pressureized oil feed to the heads.  It is likely
to require more difficult maintainence, more complex and expensive
replacement parts, and be less realiable than a push rod design.

Pushrods are actually an excellent design given the Harleys relatively
low red line.  Harley isn't faced with any displacement limitations.
If more power is desired, they can just punch the motor out a little
more rather than trying to squeeze more power out of a smaller motor.
Why screw up an effective design?

ground clearance?  rear tire width?  sport riders?
Harley does not build sportbikes.  Period.  It's like complaining that
your Hemi Cuda won't pull 1.3 lateral G's.  That's not what it's for!

>Thus, any sport rider whose first priority is handling and

I don't get it.  If you don't like the bikes Harley builds why would
you want to be in the "Harley club"?

Hello, all.

A friend of mine is considering the purchase of an '83

	Asking price: $3,000

Any comments on the price appreciated.

        There are many things a person should experience in a lifetime.
       Among them are an infant's first cry, and an infant's first laugh.

	I've four.  Bonnie N. Clyde, Angel Eyes, Blondie, and Tuco
Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez.  They are not only too stupid
to know *how* to pose, they have no innate sense of dignity like a
cat.  A car will run into a wall and give the "I meant to do that" look.
A ferret will do the same thing and give the, "Alright, who did that?"
look.  Given all ferret behavior I've seen, they're the ultimate squids.

	BTW: they not only kick the cat's ass regularly, they will
consistently kick the white butt of my samoyed!  I love 'em.

The duel compound tyre is made by Spitfire and as how good they are I don't
know but the idea is right, long lasting centre and sticky sides.
