1966 Aermacchi/Harley Sprint

[jonescafe72]

Was given a 1966 Sprint....I love freebies. It has compression, and seems to be relatively complete. I'm having troubles figuring out how to post pics with my Mac. I'll switch computers and get some pics posted.

This is what I'm starting with:

I started on a sub-frame to mount the tank and seat I will be using. Brand new carb for $40, oil change, and new plug. All I need now is a 6 volt battery, and I will see if she will fire!

what tank and seat are you using?

There was just an article on a Macchi/HD 250 in the Classic Motorcycle magazine, not bad for an Italian

I've just finidhed reading the peice in Classic Motercycle too!
As rare as they are in Aus, I just found out one of the guys at work has a 350 in the loop frame, trying to talk him into a restro.

Cafe it!

First, I love the Mac, just don't know how to use it yet.
Second, I picked up one of those Benelli Mojave tanks a couple of years ago for CHEAP. I also have one of Cosmos Ducati replica fiberglass seats.
I want it to look something like an Aermacchi road racer. Might even put on a smaller version of the 750 SS Ducati 1/4 fairings.
