Harley is a culture. That said, my Dad has an '82 Sportster that is only lacking upholstery and he has about $1500? in the bike. Motor blows 130psi on both cylinders. Straight frame. Etc.
A year earlier and under AMF he probably couldn't give it away. My father-in-law is a Harley snob... I hear lots of history at the holidays... too much :-(
I've never ridden one myself.
