This extraordinary XLCR represents one of the most historically significant Harley-Davidson café racers known to exist. Originally owned by Roger Reiman — AMA Grand National Champion, Daytona winner, and legendary mechanic/builder for Evel Knievel — this motorcycle combines factory rarity with irreplaceable motorsports history.

The XLCR was Harley-Davidson’s bold café racer experiment, produced from 1977–1979 and designed under the direction of Willie G. Davidson. With limited production numbers and unmistakable styling, the XLCR has become one of the most collectible Sportster-based Harleys ever built.

This example is elevated even further by its direct connection to Roger Reiman and legendary Harley race tuner Dick O’Brien, whose head work and performance expertise helped define Harley-Davidson competition history.

Historical Highlights:

  • Personal motorcycle of Roger Reiman
  • Roger Reiman was an AMA Grand National Champion and Daytona winner
  • Reiman served as mechanic and builder for Evel Knievel’s Harley-Davidson jump motorcycles
  • Head work by Harley-Davidson race legend Dick O’Brien
  • Willie G. Davidson’s iconic XLCR café racer design

This motorcycle represents the perfect combination of:
✔️ Harley-Davidson racing heritage
✔️ Factory rarity
✔️ Historical provenance
✔️ Ultra-low mileage
✔️ Collector-grade preservation

Not our usual territory, but this one was too good to ignore.

The XLCR was Willie G.’s café racer answer to the Japanese bikes, built for three years and largely ignored at the time. Collectors have since come around. A clean survivor is hard enough to find. One with 3,766 miles, Reiman’s engine work, and Dick O’Brien’s head work is something else entirely.

Reiman won Daytona, took the AMA Grand National, and built Evel Knievel’s jump bikes. O’Brien ran Harley’s factory race program for decades. That’s a lot of history on one title.

Collector bait for sure. Anyone here actually want to ride it?

Good luck to the buyer and seller!
