    That's a great example of positive mental attitude when faced with a serious illness. Focus on that project and try and blank out all the bad that's going on.
    I'm so glad you survived that illness to see the fruits of your labour and to inspire others facing similar circumstances.
    Very well done, excellent result. :)

    I wish I could give more than one thumbs up for what you guys did. That is a beautiful machine. I have been thinking in my head and wanting to do something like that myself. I guess it stems from the way that the old army WWII WLA Harley’s were used. Ive wanted an off-road Harley like what you two made. I’ve been told I’m a little crazy the way I treat my Harley’s because I’m always off roading them.

    It's been several years since you made this video. You folks did a great job on the XL. 400 lbs is an accomplishment.
    You said that the Sportster wasn't designed to be a motorcrosser. Actually, the 1962 XLCH Sportster was designed to be a TT racer. It had magneto ignition. It didn't even come with lights. Headlight, brake light and horn were an option in the parts catalogue.
    Great job on your project. Greetings from Maryland.

      Too heavy! The engine/trans alone weigh more than most modern dirt-bikes. You might get 10-15 minutes of riding time on the trails/track before you are too tired to ride anymore. Not only that, the rear suspension travel does not look like it could be much over 3-4 inches...not a fun ride!

    Nice, I remember back in 1983 some guy used to race the Baja 1000 on a similar Harley set up. His main issue was shredding the rear knobbie with all that weight.

    Very nice. Great workmanship. I don't know about motocross but with the right tires it would rip on a flat track.

    That is bad ass! Looks like a real ripper, and a museum piece all in one. Well done!!!!
