if ya wanna fly around corners on a Harley, buy a Sportster

 

I've only had my Deuce a short time and the handling was better than I expected actually. Coming from sportbikes (which I kept) I was really worried about that really skinny front tire! Cornering clearance is pretty good. But, really, these are not sportbikes. The front forks are a bit soft, but that's ok by me. I could see some problems with lowered bikes though. Sometimes ya just gotta turn in a hurry!

 

i've scrapped pegs a few times and every single time i **** my pants.

 

I've ground my floor boards plenty of time on my Heritage.

 

Just wait till you ride the primary case around a corner Alain. I need some new pegs mine have ground down so bad. The sparks do look pretty cool at night though.

 

5 yrs of sportsters bought a softail winding R turn laid her down

 

I scrape from time to time on the EG. It's got quite a bit more ground clearance than the soft tails do. I mainly get the boards and the exhaust and yeah momma doesn't like it when she is on the back and I do it.

My last bike had jug huggers on it. I ground down the tips to the point of getting into the heat shield. I replaced the bottom tip 2x.

I think it's pretty normal to shed some sparks on these things.
