    whats the main differences between a xlh and xlch sporty?

    according to this redbook site witch is apparently  what most large bike shops use, the 79 - 83 xlh1000 is valued at 1800 - 2200 privte sale and 1200 - 1500 trade in.. 

    xlch's are 40 - 60% more. http://www.redbookasiapacific.com/cs/bikes/mcycles.php?make=HARL&family=XLH1000  

    i have seen a few with blown motors for those prices, but nothing running for less than 3. are they really that cheap, or has someone got their market research wrong?

    cheers for that info obiwan. and i figured their valuations were a long way off what they sell for.

    what would be bottom dollar for a run down/rusted/unloved ironhead sporty in need of a full overhaul on bearings/brakes etc?

    XLCH - CH stood for "Competition Hot" from memory.
