Neat ad. Nothing new though, everybody knows that the sporty is always out front. This is most likely the origin of the "you just got passed by a sportster" T shirt.

I like the "smoothest ride this side of the Duo-glide" caption.

For those among you who have just a little trouble finding the ad, wait for the "Archive search results" to come up. It will take a little bit. Punch up "Harley" and the ad will appear.

Hooray for Sportsters
