Gordon's Ironhead Build

I promised build photos of Gordon's Ironhead Sportster. The bike started as this 1984 XLX and it doesn't look too bad from a distance. But a closer look shows a lot of wear, rust and corrosion, the bike was showing it's age.

   

 It was clear that the bike needed a complete rebuild, it was time to get it on the table and tear it down.

The engine would be completely rebuilt.

   

 The frame and wheels needed repair and all new bearings.

After repair and rebuild comes powder coat,
paint and new parts. 

     
     
Then it's time to get engine back in the frame and finish putting it all back together.

 



Better than new.
This bike is a keeper.
