Enjoyment isn't always measured by the price you pay for it in $$ as much as it is by the smiles it brings - enjoy...

Default Nice scoot

Congrats and never apologize for your ride and that is about as Harley Davidson as they get and a beautiful bike to boot. The Sportster has been continuously in the line up since 1957 (how many models can that be said about) and are a good bike for around town and long hauls when you set them up right.

That is a great looking bike! I think you got a great deal! My first bike was an 883 Sportster and sometimes I wish I still had it!

Well done neighbor. Very nice, love the color on your first HD.
Let me know when you're ready to roll and I can show you many miles of east Texas roads. Lotta great low traffic routes too.
Best riding of year for these parts is just getting here. Be safe and enjoy.
