Another abandoned bike I help rescue. A coworker bought a house and when doing some foundation work he found this '72 Harley Davidson M65S Leggero. It is a 65cc two-stroke bike built by Aermacchi - an Italian aircraft company- when Harley was owned by AMF - A bowling equipment and supply company. He knew I liked to wrench on sh*t and didn't want his kids asking him to get it running for them so offered it to me. As the Leggero was relatively rare stateside I hit a brick wall finding parts and it isn't worth the cost of having new ones made I ended up trading it mechanic and collector for work on (yet another) old bike.
By the time I showed up to get it the coworker and his brother had already pulled it from under the house, so I only have pictures of it in my basement shop.
