BUY IT. I have a deluxe and a sporster 48. Maybe its not practical but it sure is nice to always have 2 wheels to jump on. That way when your working on your deluxe you can hop on the sporty. If it isn't what you thought it would be you can easily turn around and sell that sporty for what you paid. Just my worthless $.2.

Add me to the "buy it" crowd.
I have that ol 60 ironhead rat and talking about not practical. To be quit honest the kickstart can be a pain in the azz sometimes then no front brake but I still enjoy the hell out of it. Id does have to be the most non pratical bike though
Buy it, if you dont like it or end up wanting to sell you should be able to get what you paid.
The Luxe will still get modded just maybe not as fast.

I vote for getting the Sporty. If you don't do it, you'll just keep talking about it (and may never get around to it). I've been talking about getting a Road Glide for 2 yrs, but haven't. I just keep thinking that I'll save the $$$ to buy one, and keep spending that $$$ on accessorizing this FXST. Now that I'm to the point that there's nothing left to do, I may have to break down and finally buy that Road Glide!
