That is funny, I love some of the ads.

I am looking for a project bike, but it still has to make financial sense. I want a little Sporty but at a good deal. The 2006 for 3K is nice. I'm not in any hurry, I will find one.

I suggest you look for a 1200, especially if you are larger in size... Those 883s can be a little doggish under load....

Or, get the 883 put a 1200 kit on it. I have done that twice and it's a huge boost in power. My wife's current 1993 model is a 883/1200. It's much quicker than my old EG.
