Looks pretty complete and rust free for a little over $500. I have seen them offered for over $10,000 when restored. Very rare Harley and a very rare scooter. I like that the wheel diameters are considerably larger than a Cushman. www.ebay.com/itm/Harley-Davidson-Topper-/322083735952?forcerrptr=true&hash=item4afdafc990:g:KM8AAOSwYmZXGh2J&item=3220837359521960-Harley-Davidson-Topper Click to view larger image and other views Used Time left: Time left: 4d 19h Friday, 2:00PM Current bid: US $515.00 [ 2 bids ] Place bid Enter US $525.00 or more Shipping: Buyer responsible for vehicle pick-up or shipping | Vehicle shipping quote available Item location: Alpharetta, Georgia, United States Ships to: Worldwide Payments: Deposit of US $500.00 within 24 hours of auction close Full payment is required within 7 days of auction close Harley Davison "Topper" 1960 ? - You know how hard to find this Topper in this condition and how hard it is to find with out covered with rust. - This has been stored in my dry garage for a long time. - I don't know a lot about this H.D. Topper. - The motor turns over and have good compression motor I.D. stamped is (60AU 6337) I think it is a 1960 BUT NOT FOR SURE. - You can find out a lot of clubs and parts online if you Google Topper. - As you can see a lot of the parts have been media blasted with #8 Glass so they are really smooth Plus the motor cover has been stripped some but is not finished stripping. - You will get 100% of all the parts you see in the pictures. - All the small parts will be in 3 box and easy to transport or have your shipping Company pick up. - I will be glad to work with your shipping company or if you want to pick up 7 days a week but no really late night pick ups. - I would be glad to storage for up to 30 days of end of action but the terms of payment must be followed. - The deposit is NON- REFUNDABLE I hope you understand it takes a lot of work to list this. - Their is no reserve on this action / I have no interest to restore this bike I really want this to go to a good home so it can be stored. - If you have any question fill free to email me but like I said I don't know a lot about this bike. - I will give a "Bill Of Sales" I live in Georgia where you do not need a title for older Bikes.

Wish I was closer to Georgia.
I am watching it just for kicks, to see what it goes for. It still has 4 days, bet it goes for at least a grand.

Oh, the MEMORIES!
Back in 1960, when I was 14, my home state of Illinois would license you at 14 for a "motorbike" which included most scooters, real "mopeds" Whizzers, Cushmans Harley Hummers, etc.
My Dad was going to help me get one of these Toppers (or a Hummer, or Cushman Eagle) and I was exploding with adolescent anticipation... And then, a week before my 14th birthday, they raised the license age to 16.
I'm still suffering post-traumatic-stress-disorder at 69... LOL!
These were mighty slick scoots in their day, but today, probably best reserved for collectors stables.
They also looked cool!
Something from the distant Harley Davidson past to enjoy today...

I would have to say I feel your pain, sorta.
When I was in my last year of little league, (13 years old) I was going to start at pitcher . I was very happy, since I started in right field four years earlier, and had "worked my way up" as they say. About two weeks before our first game they announced the new rules- "You must be 12 or under to pitch this year." I was crushed....
The Topper is getting closer to it's "blue book". Still has 2 days and a few hours. Bet it breaks $1000.

I'd love to drive back to GA and get it, 'Kat. I grew up near Atlanta,so I'd love to catch a Braves game while there. I'm just working too many hours now to take on a project.

Bummer. I was looking forward to your thread "Topping the Topper" with weekly updates how it progressed.

It would be more like semi-annual updates on my Topper, Kat. I could probably find a few days out of the year to work on the Topper, but not much more.

"I was looking forward to your thread "Topping the Topper"" If Leo would buy the little HD scoot, he could start the thread "oldchopper's Topper".

You win, bender. That one's WAY better than mine.
Although I was trying to come up with something doing with your name. Bending the Topper? Topper Bender? Didn't seem as catchy as Topping did. Darn that I missed the best!
So hey Unca Leo, howsabout it? Gonna buy that Topper so we can enjoy Old Chopper's Topper? Huh? Huh?
