From that time Harley sold a made-in-Italy 250cc single-cylinder two-stroke enduro bike. Actually quite rare … and even rarer now, since mine was wiped out by an idiot in an SUV.
Only 2500 were originally made over the entire 5-year production run, and a lot of them were ridden hard in the woods. They’ve got to be extremely scarce today, especially hard to find one in anything close to good condition.
I do miss having a kickstarter. Had one on my Harley.
Never have to worry about the bike having a dead battery.
Fun and cool to use. Makes starting the bike an event.
How old was that HD?
Late 70’s.
Not your typical Harley, though. Harley SX-250

That seems like an interesting make. I wonder how many might be left.

Its interesting to think of a time HD would experiment more.
