Hi Everyone
Currently ride as my daily ride a Honda VTX 1300. Getting to want something a little lighter for various reasons. Need a bagger with a trunk. Thinking of getting the Sportster 1200 Custom and throwing on a shield, bags, and trunk...for shopping and frequent 400-mile trips to see my mom.
Want something okay for around town and well as those trips, need something pretty quiet for my community, dependable and good handling for the curves. The Custom size and price seems to fit in. Any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Did a test ride on the Indian Scout. Loved the bike but not the 3.3 gallon tank and smallness of it. The 1200 custom seems to meet more of my requirements and the price would work.
