1976 Harley-Davidson Sportster XLH 1000 Project Begins | Family-Owned Since New

Welcome to Speed Eagle. In this first video, I introduce my dad’s 1976 Harley-Davidson Sportster XLH 1000. My dad bought this bike new in 1976 and has been the original owner ever since. After years of sitting, the plan is to bring this classic Harley back to life and get it back on the road where it belongs. In this video, I walk around the bike, talk about its history, discuss its condition, and share my plans for the restoration and future rides. Follow along as we document the entire journey—from first inspection and repairs to the first startup and first ride. If you enjoy motorcycles, vintage Harleys, garage projects, and life on two wheels, subscribe and join the ride. Ride Hard. Live Free. #SpeedEagle #HarleyDavidson #Sportster #XLH1000 #MotorcycleRestoration #VintageHarley #BarnFind #MotorcycleLife
