Harley's 0-60 Time
Okay, I read thru all 5 pages of why are Harley's so SLOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW and mentioned my 08UC Stage 1 could 0-60 in about 5. This months Cycle World clocks the Rockster at 4.9 Stock and I see some guy, Fred, no offense, mention a Harley can't do 0-60 in 5.1 seconds. Not doing asize thing but just curious and proud to own a Harley.
What's your time 0-60? Aprox. if you can only guess? I'm sure if you wanted to gas it 0-60 in 2nd on your bagger could do it in about 6 secs. I'm guessing.

Mine will flat haul pulling hard 0-60 and I got a 88 on a Heritage with Stage 1. Can I get to 60 in 5 seconds? I havent timed it but if I can't I would be shocked. A lot of times though I normally pull a burn out for a few bike lengths at the start though. I have a heavy hand ehehe. Yes I can out run a Mini Van [sm=biker2.gif][sm=badbadbad.gif]

I have never timed it either, but I am sure I can easily do a less than 5 second 0-60 on my Sportster. The key is the take off, just rev it up to 2k rmp then drop the clutch!

My point in the other post is still valid though.

Always have to laugh at the boys worried about how fast their Harleys are or are not.After you have riden one for a while you decide,do I want a real fast one or a stocker.Personally I like very quick Harleys and it is much less expensive to build one yourself.Even then you should care less about how fast it is,other than to impress yourself.

Who cares? Harley's are not really fast bikes. They have a different experience. The Jap bikes do fast really well, Harley does being relaxed really well. There's no harm or shame in any of it. Noname
