Damn it! See, this is what happens when you don't read the original post date. You end up looking like a dick for responding to something that's almost SIX YEARS OLD!

Not really true in this case. This 6 yo thread was reopened by someone asking a question that is completely unrelated to the thread topic.

Not using the snooze button in the morning when I'm planning to ride to work.
Extra time in my saturday routine because the bike washes and waxes faster than just washing the car.
Cheeks get sore from smiling too much.
People coming up to me and tellling me I've got a cool bike.

Other than all that I'm pretty satisfied with my sporty.

Default Problems with Sportsters
Where to begin?

Geesh, Not enough time to ride every day because of work.

Not enough curves in Kansas to make me happy screaming through them.

Great Bike 2011 1200 XL Custom.

Not enough vibration to slow me down.

Other than that, runs cool, runs fast.

Not sure the OP cares anymore.
He hasn't been here for 7 yrs, and the thread is 10 yrs. old.
