This is NOT a misprint, this Harley Davidson XL 1200 Sportster is brand new with only 91.8 miles and a perfectly preserved bike stored in controlled climate all of it's life, drained properly of fluids and in 100% original and immaculate condition. It was carefully and professionally removed from the living room of a house, hauled to an indoor facility and completely inspected, prepped and started up properly by a certified Harley master mechanic (Roger, see bill). This is a brand spanking new bike with original manual, keys, dealer plate, kickstand rest and a cover to keep it dust free. It's the ideal bike for the finicky collector who wants only the best of the best or a rider who wants to buy a new Harley for 1/2 the price. Come, take a look and have it inspected yourself... you'll literally be flabbergasted when you see it in person. It's flawless! If I've garnered your attention, please read on regarding the almost too crazy to be true story about how I acquired this bike.

A gentleman bought 2 of these 1996 XL 1200's, one for himself and one for his son. He kept his son's brand new bike in the living room (yes, living room where it sat all it's life) and told him he could have it once earned his license and was ready to ride. Following a hostile divorce, the gentleman's family unraveled and he, eventually, disowned his son. Upon his death, the gentleman bequeathed his home and its entire contents to "Nancy," his next door neighbor. Nancy called my friends, Jay and Sal, from Retro Image Antiques to prepare an estate sale, but Sal called me about the Harley to see if I was interested in buying it. He arranged a meeting with myself and Nancy and when I saw the bike for the first time, my poker face turned to a cartoon face (replete with bulging eyes) and my insouciant demeanor turned into "OH WOW!" Alas, there was no way to start the XL 1200, but I decided to take a chance due to the fact that the tanks were perfectly clean, all the rubber was supple and the mileage was ineffable! When the Harley saw light for the 1st time in 20 years, I knew I made the right decision and I couldn't wait for Roger to get his hands on it. At the shop, Roger took his time to fully inspect it and get it prepped properly for startup. I got to listen to Sportster start and all I could do was smile with a sense of relief that it was brought to life with no issues whatsoever.

So, basically what I'm selling is a brand new 1996 Harley-Davidson Sportster XL 1200. If you want to confirm the story with Nancy, feel free to let me know and I'll ask her if it's okay for you to call her. I'm sure she wouldn't mind, as she asked if I could stay in touch regarding the sale. Not only will there be no disappointments in this purchase, I'm 100% certain that you'll be the happiest Harley collector or rider on the road. You may call me Tom (313-805-4265) or Peder (313-729-3671) to set up a time to look at it. Please keep in mind that I will only allow very serious buyers with cash before I start it and those willing to make an honest deal before it's out for a test ride. I want to keep the miles low rather than allow tire kickers and low ballers out for a joy ride. Thanks!
