1977 Harley Davidson XLCR1000, 998cc. Registration number EKR 254T. Frame number 7F25772H8. Engine number 7F25772H8.
The XLCR Street Racer was produced over three model years, 1977-1979, some 3100 bikes in total. The all-black machine used a steel tank and fiberglass tail used a model specific black Siamese exhaust. It was the first Harley to use triple discs brakes.
Unfortunately, it was not a sales success as traditional Harley buyers preferred laid back cruisers and the Sports/Street Market had better and cheaper Japanese models to choose from.
EKR was imported into the UK in 1990 being owned by Daniel Smith of Pittsburg from 1986. By 1999 it was with Mark Martin and there are receipts on file from Black Bear and Warr's for service parts purchased. Our vendor bought it in 2005. There are MOT's on file from 1997 at 24,998 miles to 1999 at 25,930 miles. In 2001 it was recorded at 13,203 indicating a new speedo, through to the last one in 2014 at 14,197 miles, the front brake master cylinder failed on a ride and it was parked up.
Now in need of recommissioning this rare machine will make a good winter project ready for the spring.
Sold with the V5C, USA title, MOT history, various receipts, owners manual and parts book.
