Harley Sportster XLCH
A racier version of the
Sportster was introduced in 1959 under the XLCH
tag. Intended as a performance-oriented on/off road machine
it differed from its street XLH sportster by
sporting magneto ignition, high-mounted exhaust pipe, "peanut"
fuel tank (barrowed from the hummer) , "bobbed" rear fender, and semi-knobby tires. Tank badges were also different, being of a design shared by some of Harley's contemporary racing bikes. The XLCH also
debuted the "eyebrow" headlight cover that remains a Sportster trademark
to this day.

Harley Dealer |
|

|
In 1907, at age 14, Dudley Perkins rode his first Reading Standard Cycle. Perkins along with Al Maggini
opened their own Harley-Davidson dealership in California . They promoted the bikes by racing them.
As world war II was coming to an end, Dudley Perkins saw the need to purchase the 80,000 plus bikes produced by H-D for the military.
He had them repainted and ready for sale as the war ended. Dealer sales escalated as the veterans demand for bikes came into full swing.
