I know what you are saying. I bought a new '03 1200 Sporty and had it for 17 months. It was a great bike. But I just had to have a twin-cam so I traded it in. I never had a moments trouble with the Sporty, It was fast, agile, and would do anything I asked it to do, but I had to have the twin-cam.

A guy bought it sitting in the dealer's driveway, right where I got off of it. They never even took it in to the shop. I even saw the guy looking at it when they rolled my new one outside. He got himself a nice ride.

Welcome to HDF Dyna pnb.

I've hated to see every SportSter I've ever owned go.

Especially my first one ever bought in 65.

You'll get over it. the FXDF will see to that.
