Harley-Davidson XR1000 Ride By.

[randytelecaster]

Excellent ! The only thing I would do different is use 19" wheels on both and reverse rear cylinder (You Tube video of one on here) to have dual carbs...

[441rider]

The best HD ever, should go back in production to compete against Triumph & Norton's Kenny Dreer idea.

[niacinsoupbowl]

Now that is a nice bike!

[828cc]

Cheeers for that :-) Anth.

[disndat11]

Great bike. And you look great on it.

[828cc]

Cheeers, hoping to do a new vid of the Harley in hd tomorrow... watch this space :-)

[jumpcutkiller]

It's not a XR1000..........

[828cc]

Check the comments... it's an Ironhead... what would you prefer me to call it?

[matsoberg1]

@828cc I would call it an ironhead Sportster plain and simple. XR-750 tank and seat does not make it a flattracker either.

[qooky86]

How do you reduce 883cc to 828cc? And why would you want to? I know it's not an XR750. Typo maybe? Like the helmet.

[828cc]

The bike's based on a 1000cc 1981 iron head, 828cc is the capacity of a Norton Commando which you'll see in some of my other vids. Cheers, Anth :-)

[evel74]

Sweet bike. Btw, did you use Storz Performance for the rear fender? Or is it all handmade?

[828cc]

It's a Storz seat/fender but I've never found out who made the tank. Cheers, Anth :-)

[Combattoino]

Can it roll on the desert?

[828cc]

This thing rolls anywhere :-)

[smudgey6120]

how did you get it to look like that? what did you change on it and how easy are the parts to come by?....damn good looking bike ..great job

[828cc]

It's mainly seat, tank and pipes and throw away all the sportster bits that aren't necessary :-)

[JeddLawler]

That sound... Oh boy that sound. What a gem. love your videos!

[828cc]

Cheers for that :-> Anth.

[Zillahtech]

SuperSweet!

[828cc]

Cheers :-)

[WhiskyInTheJarooo]

true trueee :P

[WhiskyInTheJarooo]

that looks and sounds mean as hell .. have you seen the new one??

[828cc]

Looks better with the Supertrapps :-)

[828cc]

Cheers :-)

[SteveGuild]

Should have been built with 2 front shovelhead heads.I have an 81,one of the worst sportys ever built unless you change cams.

[828cc]

This one goes pretty well with the pipes and carb :-) Anth.

[DemP76]

great bike!!!...

[828cc]

Cheers dude, check it out with the Supertrapps fitted. Ride on :-) Anth.

[watanabehifumi]

It is a good sound.

It is an advanced country though it is made to do.

It is wonderful.

[828cc]

Cheers, check out the new vid with the Supertrapps :-) Anth.

[watanabehifumi]

Thank you the brother.

[JerryMopar]

Harley sound really nice when you wind them up a little bit more than duh bikers do

[828cc]

Got some new pipes to fit this weekend, watch out for the next vid :-) Anth.

[tsal01570]

One of these flew past me in the 1980's. I will never forget it. Scared the shit out of me. I was riding a 1973 superglide down a back road near my parents house. Never saw him coming. This guy passed me like I was standing still. I did get a chance to meet him (a few days later at the local store)and check out the bike closeup. That was the only time I ever saw one. (on the road):-)I guess they only made a very limited number of street legal versions for a few years? 750 & 1000??

[828cc]

This isn't a real one sadly, she's based on an iron head '81 Sportster with a big Amal carb and open mega's :-) Anth.

[p22adraig]

Great machine! I imagine they are fairly rare.

[828cc]

This one has been built up from a 1981 Sporster and I love it. :-) Anth.

[Num11522914]

this bike is really beautiful..

[828cc]

Thanks, I'll do another vid of her soon. Cheers, Anth :-)

[roadrocket]

very neat looking nice burble.

[828cc]

Thanks Chris, and a happy New Year to you. Anth :-)

[timberplod66]

some harleys are definetly cooler than others:)

[828cc]

Cheers Duncan! Anth :-)

[powersliding]

love the exhaust which looks a little short. though look beast

[828cc]

They were the shortest mega's I could find, they look loads better than the straight pipes that used to be on it. Cheers, Anth :-)

[powersliding]

tough looking beast... i wonder what i was thinking when i typed 'though look beast'

[828cc]

I thought you'd been on the 'pop' :-)
