Wanted a chain cover oem 25433-84, not a crome replacement. The first owner laid it down, and has some big scrapes. I can get a 25433-83 that fits the generator models. I wondering If I could use the older one, and drill out and tap holes inside for the Lockplate (Clutch ramp). I believe that's the only diferance.

Default hard tail frame

Hey folks,

From what I've been told this frame is a 1972.

It's been converted to a hard tail. Looks strait and true and the welds are solid.

Would need a good cleaning and paint to look new.

I can't use it so I'd just like to get what I paid back $325. I have a picture I can send but didn't know how to post it here.

I'm in Massachusetts. May be we could work something out.


I have a springer front end but I'd rather a shorter one stock to -2.

I need tins (tank and fenders)

Starting an 81 build soon.

Got kinda shafted bottom feeding on ebay, I now have a mismatched set of split handle bar. The are looking for mates. Both are the speedster(laconia) type I think. One is longer then the other by about an inch.

Anyway, if you have single bar halves, lets try and match some up, willing to buy or sell to make a match.
