Harley-Davidson XL 53C XL 883 Sportster Custom 2003 motorcycle photo photograph

Description

Up for auction is a rare HD photo, of the Harley-Davidson XL 53 XL 883C Sportster Custom.
The new Sportster did justice to Harley ’s racing history. After all, the Company has a long history in motorsport. In fact, in 1921 Harley-Davidson became the first vehicle to win a race with an average speed of more than
100 mph
. The XR750 first raced in the
United States
national series in 1972. It was originally based on the Sportster when a new all-alloy 750cc racer was conceived to replace the successful KR750. The bike has achieved phenomenal success on the
US
oval dirt track race circuit including three successive national victories from 1976 to 1978 for Jay Springsteen and five in a row for Scott Parker from 1994 to 1998. The XR750 was made even more famous by Evel Knievel. Knievel not only raced the bikes, it was an XR750 that he used for most of his spectacular record breaking jumps.
