45ci = about 740cc's.
Oil, constant loss chain oiler, and vertically split primary. So yeah, it leaks.
It's a 60 year old motorcycle in good running condition. I'd like to see a '04 R1 in 2064 in that nice of condition. In fact, find me any Japanese car or motorcycle from 1948 in anything close to that kind of shape.
I don't like new Harleys any more than the next guy, but this thing is a classic. Back when Harleys were good bikes. Hell my grandfather learned to ride on an Army WLA in '42, which is effectively the identical motorcycle. Regardless of what you think of Harleys now, this is American heritage. Not to mention that the value is never going to go down.
