I am a full-time Softail rider now!
I cant manage my time to ride 2 bikes, wife was bitching all the time, Sportster has to go.
I paid $10,999 cad in Sep 2006, HD dealer gave me a $1,500 in-strore credit for accessories, total paid $9,499. I sold it to a guy for $9,300 today, 16,000km 2 years riding, my loss is $199. I have to take the loss on the accessories but not a big deal.
Do I miss my Sportster? Yes but my Fatboy treats me so well, happy camper.

Greetings,

There are people that do keep their bikes. For instance, the 05 Night Train I traded in on my Rocker C I had for 3 years and put 23,000 miles on it.
