TITLE.
Don't get a Salvage Title.
If you ever sell the bike, no-one like them. IMHO.

Get the paperwork from International Title, about $150.
They are in Las Vegas, and phone number in Walneck's.
I did, and it worked great.
Title it as a 1957 Harley-Davidson.

Im new to this whole hummer motorcycle i have restored 2 other bikes (72' honda and a 65' bridgestone mountain 90). the things that i have questions about. i have a 1957 hummer 125cc

- where is a good place to find parts
- mine has a cap/plate over where i see every other bike would have a speedometer? this is a basket case and did not come with a title, i live in wisconsin and in order to get a salvage title the do a inspection and one of the things you need is a speedometer. is there any way around that or is there a way to install a speedometer.
- the front rim does not have a brake set up on it? is this a stock option? i havent seen any other with out a brake?
- is there any where to get a service manual on this? i went to a harley dealer around my house and the only thing they had was the harley light weight book? but that went from 1958 and up, will this help me at all?
- this bike did not come with a carb, ive been looking on ebay and other places and cannot find one. does anyone know where i could find one? also the piston is cracked, i found ton of places to get a new one.
