THE SATURDAY SPORTSTER SEASON 2
In Saturday Sportster Season 2, follow along with Tim Fiorucci as he turns a 1969 Harley-Davidson Sportster XLCH into a ground-up custom chopper!

WHAT IS THE SATURDAY SPORTSTER VIDEO SERIES?
The Saturday Sportster video series was born of our desire to share the knowledge we have about building bikes with the rest of the world. Taking a stock motorcycle and turning it into the custom bike of your dreams, using your own hands, skills and knowledge, is a wonderful feeling that sticks with you, potentially life-long.
The Saturday Sportster Season 1 with Todd Muller was a big hit. In season 1, Todd built a hopped-up, 1250cc scrambler out of a stock 2003 Harley-Davidson Sportster 883.
We are super excited to release Season 2, and we are already about to start filming Season 3!

TIPS FOR BUYING A USED HARLEY SPORTSTER
For Saturday Sportster Season 1, we picked up a 2003 Harley-Davidson Anniversary Edition 883 Sportster for relatively cheap.
For Season 2, we started with a frame and engine, and gathered up some stock wheels and other parts we needed for the build.
Whether it is a complete, rideable bike, or a pile of parts, we are no strangers to buying used motorcycles. In this Video: Guide for Buying a Used Harley Sportster, Todd walks you through the entire process he personally uses when evaluating a used bike he is interested in buying.
