Good for you Barry, not taken anything away from the Sporty,especially the 04 to 05 model's that are rubber mounted engine but I think you'll be very happy with your purchase, Ride on and ride safe.[sm=pimp.gif]

Yes the sporty is a nice bike but mine was a 03 and the rubber mounts make a hugh difference and like being closier to the ground as well.

I had a Lowrider before I bought my Road King. I don't think you will go wrong at all if you sell the Sportster and buy the Lowrider. Nice bike and nice ride.

The wind shield was the correct size on the sporty but to high for the LR so going to get it cut down. The stock pipes have to go Sounds like a Honda.
