I allmost bought a VStar, Then thankfully my older and wiser brother talked me into a Sportster. He's got a 07 Ultra Classic nice bike, But I love my sporster and have no problem keepin up with the big twins just my a$$ is a little sorer with this stock seat. But none of the big twin guys ever said anything bad about my bike. and I'll admit I like theirs as well.

 

Totaly love my sporty it is the first harleyi've owened and i cant even dream of getting rid of it. For me it's not about speed i love just jumping on her and cruising around through the forest and country roads.

Like i always say it's a Harley 'nough said.

 

Superstylin, thanks for the compliment1 Like Whayp said, those are Harley rims. Sure beats cleaning spokes!

 

I know this is old, but I just got my old 98 1200 running again and went for a ride. What a difference from my electraglide!

 

sportster is way more fun than bigger bikes. way to resurrect a 90 year old thread

 

 

The " Sportster " the longest running model of ANY make made WORLD wide

I've had my stock Ironhead since '86 , have out run many Shovel Heads up to 90mph

At '64 I'm getting rid of my Tour Glide , the Sportster I keep

 

I love the looks, the sound, the ride. It's classic, old school, what a motorcycle should be.

 

Wednesday I put an Ultima electronic single fire ignition on my 77 Ironhead Sportster. Thursday I put a new Commander II on the front of my 07 Dyna. Sunday my Wife, on her 04 1200 Custom and me, on the 77 Ironhead went for a ride. Yes, I really enjoy my Dyna . . . but I love my Ironhead. I'll get back to the Dyna in a few days. For me, nothing puts a smile on my face like a Sportster.

 

I just sat on the new 1200 iron,now I really would love to have one...
