My friend and his dad have a few Harley Teal-Glides (I think). They have 165cc four-stroke engines, no rear suspension and upside-down front forks. He is restoring them now and they go for about $2500 unrestored :shock:

I'v ridden some of the old amf bikes, but never actually owned one. They were slow and outdated pretty much the entire production run (amf and harley did not do well due to the japs in the 70's-80's). I guess they were fairly reliable, but I havent seen more then a handful and they were all beat to hell, so it is hard for me to judge on much other then hearsay.

Like JohnnyBlaze, Im familiar with the dirt bikes, and trail& street models produced when Harley was part of AMF. A guy was riding one at an ATV Rally last year, and it was in nice shape. They werent anything great, even by 70's standards, but today, they bring top dollar as a collector showpiece.
