Help please!!!
How is everyone doing? My name is Randy and I just purchased my first Harley.. My question is what is the easiest way to make my Sporty into a Sporty Softtail... I know I can purchase a custom frame; but will all of my parts interchange.. I know rear wheel tire and back accesories wont but will the rest? I really appreciate all the info I can get; on how to customize my new scooter...

There were a lot of softail sporsters at Laughlin a couple years ago. Or maybe three or four years ago. Don't know if the companies have survived but a search might get you the info you want. This year it was sportsters with off road stuff.

There may be some frames out there that accept the Sportster engine/tranny combo, but the're gonna be hard to find compared to those that'd accept an Evo/tranny combo, so you've gotta ask yourself why you want the Sporty powertrain instead of the latter. And in Burns -- dude, EVERYTHING will have to be shipped to your door!!!
