1964 Sportster
Hi guys. Wonder if anyone can help. I will be starting a rebuild/restore project on an XLCH '64 sportster soon and will require a factory workshop manual.Does anyone have one for sale in paper or cd form.The bike has a later frame and some of the cycle parts are later too. I need to identify in detail what I have and find my Clymer manual somewhat lacking. Thanks in anticipation.

Re: 1964 Sportster
Hi Jules. My MoCo manual is only 70-78 but my Clymer goes from 59 - 75. If that's any help you're welcome to read it any time. Obviously you wouldn't want me to scan any of it on my computer because that would be a breach of copyright, that goes without saying, don't know why I mentioned it. Probably the MoCo parts book would be more useful for your purposes. My copy claims to cover 54 - 78 XL Models. I hear those '54 XLs are pretty rare.

Hi.

Pooks books are on Ebay as : Motoringmagpie.

Their shop is here :

eBay UK Shop - Pooks Motor Books: BROCHURES, HANDBOOKS MANUALS, PROGRAMMES

They only have 3 HD books listed, but none for the Sportster.

Re: 1964 Sportster
Thanks for the help guys. Don't know how I missed the flea bay cd's Baza.Must be my age.Probably need a restoration myself.Anyway,have ordered them.Thanks Gray,but I've got two editions of the Clymer manuals.They are ok ish,but not in depth enough when you know naff all about 60's sportsters. One thing I do know is these pre '57 sportsters are rarer than rocking horse s..t. if you can find one.lol.
