MY RIDE! A 2013 Sportster 1200 Custom in the Garage

Johhny51273 loves to ride anything with two wheels. After more than twenty-five years he has finally gotten back on a bike. His first ride was a 1980 Honda Twinstar 200, which he rode back when he was thirteen years old.

Now, many years later, he has picked up a real ride: A 2013 Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 Custom. But, like many Harley owners, he couldn’t just settle with having a bike — he had to work on it and modify it to perfection.

Today we’ll take a look inside John’s garage at this magnificent Sportster and see all that he has done to the wonderful machine!

So far, John has removed the reflectors, added Cycle Shack slash-down slip-on mufflers, painted the headlight visors black, added a one piece detachable sissy bar, added a La Rosa 16″ Antique Shedron solo seat, and more.

Despite all of these modifications, John still wants to do more to his bikes, and no one can blame him for that. He hopes to do a one inch tank lift; add 16″ Tree Hugger Miter Cut black ape hangars; relocate the coil and ignition, speedometer, and the front signal; and to do an intake upgrade and a tune up.

This Sportster certainly looks cool, and it’s clear that John has taken very good care of it. Go drop by his garage and leave some comments, browse the photography, and have a good time! Be sure to keep your garage up to date and maybe you’ll be featured next week!
